I saw a thread a while ago with a list of system apps that come with the stock romantic and a dropbox box link to a zip with them in.

I can't find it now with search, does anyone have a link?

Would be greatly appreciated.

Cracks in the aluminum. Just noticed today that my phone has cracks in the aluminum, i have never dropped the device and have had a Silicon cover on it.

I called the reseller and they want to send it to samsung, but that's gonna take like 2-3 weeks :( And samsung said that the warranty is gone, cus i have rooted it, but it has nothing to do with the software.

Anyone else that have seen this?
[Galaxy S III General] blgblade:
flash a stock rom :)
[Galaxy S III General] Pete_79:
Yeah, that was my thought to, but dont i have to use triangle away aswell?
[Galaxy S III General] Axefield:
From CF-Root 6.4 thread:
[Galaxy S III General] luigig:
Interesting... It does not look like a crack but a precise vertical cut.
[Galaxy S III General] Se23:
Oh for God's sake this is like the 50th thread about this! And it's not a cut these phones do crack.
[Galaxy S III General] Pete_79:
Sorry, i did try to search, but the search function seams to be broken?

I honestly don't know what to do, flash stock and send it to repair or just live with is :/
[Galaxy S III General] JJEgan:
One it does look like a cut from the picture but visual inspection may show a crack .

What will Samsung say crack or cut when they look at it .

But you do say cracks not one crack .

Two removing traces of root is easy and returns phone to a warranty state .

So do you want to remove root return the phone and get it back in a few weeks saying not warranty its damaged .

In that respect could you not get a local store to just look at the crack first to confirm it is and save wasting time .

jje
[Galaxy S III General] antipesto93:
I have one of these too!
[Galaxy S III General] big_adventure:
I have vertical CUTS at all 4 corners, where they smooshed together the pieces. There is no space between the two sides of the cut, and you can't even feel it, but it's there and visible if you look for it. My phone has been dropped a fair amount, but the cuts were there the day I got it.

"Don't worry about it" is my advice.

* BTW, yours is definitely a crack. I still just wouldn't worry about it.
[Galaxy S III General] rocker1198:
I have one on the bottom right corner too. And it looks more like a joint than a crack
[Galaxy S III General] CountZer0:
It looks like that. Dont microscope your Phones corners!
[Galaxy S III General] kp.nikhil:
its there in all the four corners and it looks like some sort of cover and not crack

[Galaxy S III General] Se23:
Don't listen to the others telling you nit to worry. If you haven't dropped it get on to the place of purchase asap. I made the mistake of not doing that and dented my phone a little after so I'm out of luck. It will split all the way through soon. The ones in the four corners r normal.
[Galaxy S III General] xN1CKYx:
Damn same thing on mine.

Should send back to Samsung but they say I drop it cost £100 to replace :(
[Galaxy S III General] Mr Woolf:
Same on mine, can't say I'm bothered though. Mine are quite obviously from manufacture.
[Galaxy S III General] deom2i:
Wwwhaaaaat!!! These phones do whaaaaaaaaaaaaattt!!! :eek:

These cracks appears in white phone only?!
[Galaxy S III General] afcrib:
Have the blue and all 4 corners have the crack. Not sure if this is consider normal! Been looking at high res photos of the phone and they aren't there, so question is how is this normal?! I will go to samsung monday and check this.
[Galaxy S III General] xN1CKYx:
I did drop my phone. Samsung are say the cracks are from the phone been dropped.

I think it's from the over heating problem the phone got.
[Galaxy S III General] Baldilocks:
It's not aluminum. If it were, this problem wouldn't happen so much.
[Galaxy S III General] jonathanyong:
I've also got 4 slits, one on each corner. They're obviously seams.
[Galaxy S III General] Nosterius:
They are just the visibile Lines where the pieces are assembled togheter :what:

[Galaxy S III General] etchemkay:
Just noticed this myself.. Have it on my pebble blue S3 as well.
[Galaxy S III General] uf21:
I've got the exact same crack in the exact same position.

Is samsung like apple whereas they change the phone on the spot or are they a hassle?
[Galaxy S III General] kanu1and:
Its not aluminium.... its coated polycarbonate....
[Galaxy S III General] jonstatt:
It is indeed just a coated (laquer) polycarbonate. There will be 4 joining seams on EVERY S3. So please stop looking for those. The original poster showed a clear crack, not a join/seam mark.

Unfortunately the cracking seems to be related to phones that have either been dropped, or been put into a very tight pocket (e.g. back pocket) where effectively the phone is almost bent. When this happens the casing tries to flex, but cannot due to the rigidity of the glass it is bonded to. This results in a stress fracture in the casing. I am not saying there aren't defective ones, but typically those cracks are stress related.

The true defect issue with the S3 casing, is where the lacquer has not been properly applied to the polycarbonate on the bezel, possibly due to dirt or grease on the polycarbonate surface. This results in chipping of the lacquer over time which looks mega-ugly after a while. I am just hoping mine doesn't suffer that fate.
[Galaxy S III General] samovog:
Its not aluminium.... its coated polycarbonate.... = CHEAP PLASTIC. And thats what it is.
[Galaxy S III General] rocker1198:
Mine is suffering that fate.
[Galaxy S III General] thesponz:
Like everyone else said. Its not aluminium its PC. The marks in all 4 corners are split lines from the injection mould tooling and are visible to everyone, especially when painted. You'll notice that there is another line running all the way around the bezel about 2mm down from the screen. This is because if you didn't split the tool there, you wouldn't be able to get the bezel out of it after moulding.

The "crack" you have has is probably a weld line, which is where during the moulding process the hot plastic flows around the mould in 2 different directions until the 2 cold fronts meet and knit together. The 2 cold fronts never realty knit properly leaving a visible line and a weak point. The more gates / feed points the moulding has, the more weld lines you'll get.
[Galaxy S III General] Pete_79:
Good news.

Today i called samsung support and talked to a really nice guy, he gave me a number and an address to one of samsungs certified repair shops, really close to where i work. I went there on my lunch and they repaired it (replaced the entire screen module) apparently the silver frame is not replaceable by it self. Took about 15 minutes. And all on warranty :)

And i didn't even have to flash stock rom :)
[Galaxy S III General] chavocarlos:
Congratulations.
[Galaxy S III General] a67543210:
The silver frame is plastic. Samsung should have made it of a solid material like metal. Now,I don't know if it's better having a permanently dented metal or a chip on plastic. A chip on plastic might be better, than a dent in metal
[Galaxy S III General] chavocarlos:
Could you tell us when you bought your phone, and where are your phone from?

I am missed about get the same issue, and can use warranty because I am in Ecuador.

Regards.
[Galaxy S III General] amour1991:
I have these too even some bad color spots on aluminum and an uneven volume button which the the volume down is lower and harder to push than the other and a small lack of color under gorilla glass.

The device functionality is pretty fine but i'm not pleased with quality the c-pen is not good enough.

Super amoled screen also has some ink spots you can see in a complete dark room on a black background

If problems was with just one device it can be ignored

Samsung designs well but does not watch the quality of products.

I hate Apple products but at least it has the quality.
[Galaxy S III General] Pete_79:
I bought the phone on may 29.

As for where the phone is from, im guessing its from Korea (samsung). But i bought mine in Sweden. Sorry, but i don't know what else you meen.

/Pete
[Galaxy S III General] gian84:
You should have usf triangle away and flash a stock rom before sending it for warranty. You should have it replaced. That was probably from a bad manufacturing batch..
[Galaxy S III General] Pete_79:
Huh? I did use triangle away, but i didn't flash a stock ROM. As i said, i went to the repair shop (did not send it at all) and they replaced the entire screen module while i was there (glass, digitizer, display and the silver frame) took about 15 minutes and i got the phone back, its as good as new now.
[Galaxy S III General] chavocarlos:
I mean about if was the first phones, and the country of manufacturing is behind your battery.

Thanks.
[Galaxy S III General] Pete_79:
Its probably one of the first phones since i bought it on the release day here in Sweden. Country of manufacturing is Korea.

[HTC Sensation] Kino101:
Hi all,

I have several questions concerning SD-EXT partition.

Is SD-EXT partition still useful in ICS?

I partitionned my SD card with 4EXT (recovery): one partition of 4GB in EXT3 format, and remaining space as FAT32. I tried several browser apps (ES Explorer, Astro and Root Explorer) but none of them shows "/SD-Ext" root directory, is there something to do to show it?

When I choose to move an application to SD Card, it seems that my application is moved to my FAT32 partition in "\.android_secure" directory with a "*.ASEC" file extension, so it seems that my SD-EXT partition is not used! How to move application to SD-EXT partition?

(optional) Is SD-EXT partition still available to OS when SD Card is mounted in USB with the computer (maybe a stupid question) ?

(optional) In 4EXT, what is the effect of mounting or unmounting "/cache", "/sdcard", "/sd-ext", etc. ?

Thank you in advance for your answers.
[HTC Sensation] malybru:
Hi,

Sensation has 1 GB of internal space.

There is no longer any need for ext 3 or 4 partitions on the sd card.

Format the card to FAT 32,and enjoy ALL of the space for music,films,pictures,backups,etc.

:)

[HTC Sensation] jasminthoria:
I don't understand why do you need ext partition for sensation. It has enough memory for most of the app you needed. All games u can install to sd card. No need for ext at all. I tried to use ext before had lots of problems so would recommend just don't use.
[HTC Sensation] Kino101:
Thanks all, it seems that you all agree to say that SD-EXT is useless with "Sensation", so I'll probably give up with this feature...

As I like to understand things in general, it would be great if an expert could explain why I don't see my SD-EXT partition (created with 4EXT) with any of the most known browser, and how to move Apps to SD-EXT instead of "\.android_secure" of my FAT32 partition...

:p
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
I am NOT an expert ,hope you don't mind , but this is how I install apps to my sd card. I believe you have the ability to control there destination with this app. there are SEVERAL applications in the play store for rooted devices to move applications to sd card. I prefer one called links to SD because it does batch installations or un installations if need be to the SD card. It's very easy to use. I love it when changing over to a new SD card . I can simply batch install ALL the applications I want to my SD card in one step. Hope this helps. Best wishes .
[HTC Sensation] Kino101:
Thanks for your reply but just for your information, I also tried some apps from the Play Store (APP2SD, APP 2 SD), but they all do the same action as the built-in function "move to SD" that can be found in "Settings=>Applications" that's to say move the app to "\.android_secure" and not to my SD-EXT partition.

Best wishes.

[Huawei Ideos X6] whyzee:
The ROMs you've quoted, like maclite macdragon, sharp mod fix 1, etc., don't quite fit in the definition of CUSTOM ROMs. They're just stock ones that have bloatware removed and are rooted. You can make those yourself by flashing an .nb0, installing CWM, taking a nandroid backup and edited through dsixda kitchen found in the forums.

The ones that are real custom ROMs like CM7 and MIUI don't have FM n HDMI working yet.

PS. for thanking a useful post I recommend the thanks button!

[Huawei Ideos X6] mmaacc:
Takes slightly more than that :laugh:

The reason they work is the binaries are compiled exactly for that phone and are not ported or recompiled sources from elsewhere/other hardware (incl. MIUI). Unfortunately none of the manufacturers has given us proper sources for ICS to follow step. The closest it gets is the Sharp ROM, which has the newer kernel, still is GB. Kind of hybrid. If I'd make a ROM today I'd probably base it on that, same as the chaps at droidsans are doing. For the simple reason everything works...

Hey

I know it may be dumb to ask but is their a need to sync Facebook or social media apps with your phone? I'm Abit confused of the benefits? I have Google contacts synced to phone which i think will sync my new contacts so I'm fine with that but everything else is it really useful or is it better to have them auto sync turned off for battery life...

Cheers

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] baz77:
yep when checking settings in email and accounts I think there are options there. At least for Exchange mail. Gmail its already push, dont think you can change it.

Always just check every setting within app as wel, Facebook has push for direct messages I think.

synch is old school, poll server, updates found download, repeat proces every few minutes

push, not entirely like blackberry but close, servers sees email and sends it to phone to download. Hence push.
