Do you receive messages when the screen lights up?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MomsDear:
If the problem was also occuring when u was at GB, then nothing is wrong in this 4.0.4 update.

As u have updated,so, phone's already reset...

Then u should better contact to samsung store for solution.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madddyy:
nope..

no sms recieved .. i dont know why this happen...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madddyy:
Nope ...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MomsDear:
In my opinion, u should go with it as this is not such a big issue to change or get the phone repaired from market.

When I'd used Galaxy S Plus, me too faced this thing...but everything was perfect....
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] madddyy:
So there is no solution for this....

me have to live with this...
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MomsDear:
I didn't say that...

But I was unable to find solution that time.

May be u find solution...

Hope 4 best.

If u find solution, plz do inform me too.:)

I think it's a battery issue...when you over charge the battery it causes some problems

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] XNine:
So, I used to use the original, and it was good, but Elixer 2 is fantastic. I thought it was an app that was worth mentioning to others. It's an all-in-one system analyzer.

You can view all processes, battery info, connections (wifi phone, 2/3/4G, etc), sensor info, logcats, and tons more. Plus, it comes segmented into several different parts which allows you to choose what you want to install. For example, there's addons for Admin rights, a widget add on, and a personal add on (which allows the app to view calls/contacts/unread counts) so you get to choose what the app can see and what it can't.

The widget comes in handy too! Best of all, it's

FREE!!!!!!!!!!

Has anyone experienced their advertised battery life??? I can barely squeeze out 2 hours screen time on a full charge?

Currently using slimICS
[HTC One X] Tw1tchy:
I have never used that kernel myself but I would recommend a 4.1 sense rom (ARHD 9 is good and bugless). The use better battery stats to get rid of kernel wake locks and partial wake locks. Find a good screen brightness for yourself and turn off all not needed sounds. Wifi, data, but, gps, Facebook, Gmail, gmaps, and others can be a constant battery drain sometimes. No app is ever perfect (sometimes causes massive battery drain) but finding an alternative that works better is always great. Also let the kernel run for a couple days and it tends to fix most of the battery issues itself.

Any more info could easy be found with a search

I can do about 3-8 hours of on screen time depending on what I do. Like reading black and white text could do me 8 hours while heavy Web searching or calling or gaming could do me 3 hours

Is there a way to turn off Facebook in the background completely? I turned off notifications and location services from within the facebook app..but its always listed in the "Apps currently running" menu.
[HTC One X] nikzDHD:
I find the Facebook app useful so keep with it only way to completely disable it is to uninstall it and use the mobile version of Facebook instead or tinfoil Facebook app on the market which is just like using the mobile version.

hi,

i have an arc lt15i rooted, locked bootlaoder, with ics 4.0.4 . please can any one describe in easy and simple words , step by step, how to use it. I know there are many threads relating to this, but they are not helping, but creating confusion, as all the threads are mixed up. I t would be a great help, thanks in advance :confused:
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DjDexter5GHz:
Yep i agree with you, someone should make zip file that you could simply flash via CWM and change options with small apk...
[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
Which 4.0.4 build you got?

And if you follow the topic in General section, you would understand how to do it.

If you do not understand it, you are not familiar enough with Android.

[Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Someguyfromhell:
It doesn't give some kind of 200% performance boost... The app mainly changes the way apps are killed and when.

Hi,

I have installed CWM-Revovery 5.0 via Xperia Flash-Tool (Newest Version) on my rooted X10i (with busybox). After this I have rebooted my device and created an backup on SD-Card!

Then I wiped all data and flashed this ROM

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1782771 "XPERIA S ICS" in the following order:

1.) Xperia S ROM (Was finished in only one second?!) 2.) ICS Launcher 3.) Google Apps 4.) ICS Addon Pack

After reboot my device stucks endless at the "Sony Ericsson" Logo and I can not enter the recovery anymore. I have also tried to Flash another ROM with plugged USB and Flash-Tool, but this also fails:(!

Any ideas please?

I hope my device is not fully bricked...

Thanks in advance for all helpful answers:)!
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaddadial:
You were supposed to flash fxp kernel which has cwm recovery inbuilt after unlocking your bootloader. Then install the rom as directed. Try repair option via pc companion if flashtool isn't workin.

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] silv3rfox:
If you can access xRecovery, try to restore previous version of your ROMs after resetting facotry default and wiping partition and dalvik cache

If you can'tm check this video on how to flash an original firmware.

You'll need to download a firmware, and put it inside the firmware folder in the flashtool, then start the flashing as described in the video.
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] udupa82:
Did you install FDP kernel? If yes then don't install all packages is one go... install main zip and reboot.. let it settle for mins then go back to recovery and flash Google pack and add on pack... wipe cache n dalvik and then restart.... good luck
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Krshaw18:
So I know people are upset because they feel the phone feels cheap, but I think this makes the phone the most DURABLE device I've ever used. I've had it less than a month (with only a screen protector) and I have had 2 incidents that would have been catastrophic with any other device. First I dropped my phone on stone tile from about 4 feet up. Couldn't tell how it landed but it exploded the back and battery. I feared the worst. But the phone had no scratches what so ever. I have no idea how but I felt as thought I escaped death! Then this morning I saw a huge spider on my bed and pointed it out to my girlfriend, who immediately jumped up and yanked the blanket and flapped it violently. My phone which happened to be on the blanket was hurled high speed at a wall out the door into our kitchen (we live in a condo) and it then fell onto the counter then onto the floor where it exploded parts. I was sure this time I had wasted a few hundred. But after putting the parts together there were no dents/dings on the bezel or anywhere. No serious damage at all and nothing on the screen/protector. The glossy back was scuffed but not even bad (luckily I have 2) and the phone looks exactly brand new. I must say I love the light plastic feel more than ever! Anyone have a similar story?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Alarmmy:
iCrapple devices wont survive because they are made of "metal":p dont understand why ppl keep asking for metal-made phone. Are they brainwashed by S.Jobs and his iCrapples?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Heisenberg420:
great story lol

thats actually surprising to me after both those incidences your phone still looks brand new. I just blew $35 on a shock absorbent hard case because i've always thought the phone felt so delecate that it needed some type of protection. but i guess samsung actually took things like that into account, and its not just cheaply made with plastic.

and i think one of the main reasons your phone survived those drops is due to the light weight of the device, as already said iPhones are probably a little heavier
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jcorio:
I had a cover and took it off. 30 seconds later I go to put it in my back pocket but my untucked tshirt blocked my pocket. It fell and scratched the metal border. "Can't truss it." Rocking the otterbox defender now. Bulky but my worry level is much improved.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] krips2003:
All the Galaxy S series so far have been of good quality. No matter what the other says about. Of course some day someone might have a bad day and the phone would break. The phone is never advertised as an unbreakable phone.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] rboone18:
I scratch screen on vacation its tiny, can't see it with my new screen protector old one was coming off.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] King Shady:
I love my S3 just as much as everyone else.. but please to say the "Galaxy SIII build is awesome" is complete BS. Is it thin and light? - yes of course. However the materials used are just pathetic; I don't care what people say about plastic being durable and blah blah - HTC made a phone made of plastic polycarbonate and look how sexy that thing is. I was straight up disappointed with Samsung especially since the leaks hyped up the design so much (with the rubber bumpers guarding the design of the phone), but I should have expected no better than their typical plastic slab. That being said - do I still love my S3? Of course! It's fast, has a great screen, and is thin! But, there is no doubt at all that Samsung could have done much better or been more intuitive with their design. I hope the S4 or next Nexus (if made by Samsung) will be designed much better.

Just my 2 cents.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fleurdelisxliv:
i was outside having a cig one night and somehow a bird smacked me in the side of the head haha i know :o i threw my phone it bounced a cple times on the cement and then slid under the car. i was like well that phone is screwed. i do have a casemate tough on it. i got under the car and the glass was fine and not even a scratch on the case. i love casemate now :D
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] sn707:
Thank you that made me laugh. Nothing like getting bird slapped! Glad your phone was okay.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Heisenberg420:
Actually the galaxy s3 is made with polycarbonate, which is more durable, stronger, flexible, and lighter than plastic.

I'm not exactly sure what htc uses to make their phones, but the advantage of polycarbonate is the slim and lightweight housing, an area in which the galaxy s3 excels at compared to bulky htc phones.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] fleurdelisxliv:
man that was my first time getting bird slapped lmao! this chick i work with was riding her scooter on the hwy and she got bird slapped in the mouth and had to get stitches :laugh:
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] King Shady:
You have obviously never seen the One X because it is not bulky and it is also made of polycarbonate but it doesn't feel cheap or flimsy (like my S3).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] phzi:
I was bumped while walking and texting and my s3 flew at least 5 feet away from me and arced to my eye level. Landed hard on concrete. Bounced hard twice. There are small scuffs on the corners of the front bezzle and on the plastic back, but the screen is mint, and no serious damage at all

And that is without any case or protection at all.

I think the only thing that would kill this phone would be a hard drop on the screen.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] CZ Eddie:
Don't start getting cocky or careless. :)

You just had a few lucky bounces.

Anything this size/weight jam-packed with electronics is still delicate. It just takes the wrong bounce to cost you several $$$.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] twayneo:
I think that the greatest thing samsung did was allow you to hide applications in the drawer it is a life saver, people can complain how its plastic/polycarb but the phone feels good and when it fell out of my pocket at best buy on the asphalt (on its corner) nothing happened, my one x has a hundered microfractures around the face from just putting a case on it i love this phone.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] blue265:
I'm pretty sure you can. I used to do it for both my Captivate phones and never had an issue. Shouldn't aftect IMEI at all. Remember, all those who lost their imei numbers a while ago couldn't restore it back even with their cwm backup. That tells me that cwm backup doesn't touch the imei

Maybe wait and see if anyone else has any ideas but as far as I know you most likely could.

Give us some clues..

i) Does your phone or screen get hotter when you have this problem?

ii) Do you run a custom ROM or Kernel on your GNex? If true, tell us which..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alton (Halo 2):
I just unrooted to see if that was the problem so no I have no rom just android 4.0.4 and locked bootloader .

Test something for me , touch ur screen very lightly and move from screens now when that works see if u can touch the navigation buttons very lightly like u did he screen . And tell me if it works
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alton (Halo 2):
And it happens mostly when I charge it or hot
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Beezer80:
If it only happens when you're charging, Its because of your charger. My screen would go wonky on my epic with a cheap charger I have at work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alton (Halo 2):
Its the charger that came with the phone though
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Ntavelis:
I tried that and it's ok on my device. Have you tried a different charger? Maybe your charger has a problem.

Just give it as try..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Alton (Halo 2):
Tried that it reduced but still a little noticeable . My screen touch is OK its just my buttons at the bottom that I have to press harder

Are there any roms for this phone that are just basic without all of the google crap and other bloat?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
Android - Google = nothing.

Sooo.....

But to answer your question, no. Android is kinda based fully around linux and google services. Well I guess you could install an aosp rom and use titanium to remove all the googls aspects of the phone but at that point it'd be kinda useless....
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] gdrocks:
You can remove anything you don't want...but, removing *ALL* Google applications would remove most functionality from your smartphone. You would be left with a phone that is able to make/receive calls (i.e. a phone), text, browse the web, and run any apps that you have installed prior to removal of app store (unless you're sideloading)

It'd basically be a regular phone with a touchscreen and wifi. If that is indeed what you want, take a ROM that is already without Sense (check the dev section for senseless ROMs) before or after you flash the rom, remove Google apps from /system/apps/

Removable apps (AT YOUR OWN RISK) are in various threads. Here is a link to one from S3 board: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1634624

And from SG2 board: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1572191

Right now CM10 has a separate zip for gapps to be installed...so you could do that and not complete the flashing of gapps.

*I'm not responsible if you decide to go on a delete spree and somehow make your phone unusable.*
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bird11:
There are roms on other phones like cyanogenmod which remove all google stuff.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bird11:
Well deleing them doesn't mean they aren't still there. I'd rather they not be there to begin with. But from your first point then yes that's all I really want it to do.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Cuppeerr:
All it removes is sense and adds tweaks to it. All of the google framework and services are still there.

But seriously without the google stuff your phone would be just for making calls and texts and internet. No apps. Also the google apps and framework isn't bloat...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] PsiPhiDan:
CyanogenMod doesn't remove Google stuff, it removes HTC or Samsung stuff. Maybe you're not sure what Google is vs. what bloat the hardware manufacturers put on phones?

The entire advantage of having an Android phone comes about through Google's apps and the slick way they are integrated into the OS. As others have stated, removing all the Google stuff renders your smartphone almost useless (beyond the bare minimum).

Anyway, just go to the CM9 thread and download CM10 from IRC.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bird11:
I am pretty sure there's a way to just not get it to install the google apps. gdrocks mentioned it in this thread. Something to do with getting rid of the zip file which contains them.

Making calls, sending messages and using the internet is all I need.

gdrocks has said you can get rid of the google stuff by removing the google apps zip. I have also read this in other places.

I don't consider google products an advantage. As somebody who doesn't use google products, not even their search. It's not something I really want. Unfortunatly the market doesn't really offer much else. Apple or android. Android should be a better option considering I should be able to use something that doesn't compromise my privacy from the start.

Thank you for the recommendations.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rana Talha:
Android is based with google just like ios with apple.....well use custom roms and delete useless system apps !!! :)

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] johamsandwich:
Should've Gotten a Windows/Blackberry phone if you wanted a smartphone that doesn't the Google stuff. D:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rxpert:
No, Cyanogenmod removes everything EXCEPT for the google stuff.

And we have CM10. Flash it if thats what you want
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Riff76:
Get the blackberry or webos rom
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bird11:
Simply put I'd like a device that has many of the same hardware features of the evo 4g lte while not having to worry about my privacy. I see android as an open source OS which if there was any ridiculous measure being taken by google or other companies it would be found quickly. Though you can't say the same for other apps which aren't open source. These may be from anybody, not specifically google.

I don't use google's products so their apps and integration don't appeal to me.
