Hi all,

I've got a pair of Bose earbuds with the mic and media controls on the headset cord, that worked beautifully as a headset for calls on my old iPhone. I realize that the media controls will not work on android, but is there a way to use these as a headset during calls? Or if there is any black magic ways to make the media controls work too, that would be amazing.

Thanks!

I've tried many headphones on the S3 that worked fine for me on the Galaxy Nexus only to find they don't work for phone calls. The only set I've found so far that works is the iBeats that come with the HTC Rezound

I got the Sony Ericsson mw60 Bluetooth stereo headset. Really like the led display Full music functions such as skip, rewind etc. When I'm in my car I can plug my phone in via auxiliary on head unit. I then can use the Bluetooth for voice search, music, and phone calls. It works better than the Bluetooth in the actual headset. There the hm300 by Samsung that has lossless audio but I can't complain about the quality on the Sony and the led display just sells it. Especially when I'm at work I can control the phone without having to touch it.

urbeats with samsung s3

Hi there. I was wondering if there is an app or widget that you installed to get all three control buttons on the urbeats to work with my s3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thelastred:
No because the headset was made for only apple products (hardware and not software is what's stoping the other 2 buttons from working)

Here's a few in ear headphones you could buy with android 3buttons that will work on the s3 and s4

Soul sl99s (don't forget the s in the end)

Ajay fives (android version)

Nokia purtity inear (they say windows phone but will work on android too)

Htc Urbeats (1st version also they say htc but will work on samsung s3)

APP (free) you could use with the headphone I just listed is called ajay headset control

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=se.jays.headsetcontrol

Hope that helps!

They also have android 3button cable

That would on few on and in ear headphones like beats solo or soul headphones

Radioshack has one for $10. The one near me didn't have it so I have to travel to get it. that cord you mentioned cost as much as the Hesh 2 that will be $110 combined i am better of getting another pair of headphones. Best Buy also has some for $20. I live in the city so I don't have to travel far for a good deal.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] jw98029:
What would be a good way to determine what capabilities are present in the various recent custom ROMs for i717? (and also bugs/things that don't work)

For instance:

- Full S-Pen support (including apps & hover icon)

- Per-app dpi (Paranoid, Hybrid)

- Disable wake-up on volume up/down

- Builtin FJ-tools

- JB vs. ICS

- Netflix works

- Apps can be moved to sdcard

- Touchwiz available

- No-wipe version-to-version upgrades

- Comes with all CM10 known issues/bugs

- Builtin ad blocking

- etc.

Reading through each thread does provide some partial answers, but would be useful to have a clearer feature matrix that shows most important differences at a glance...

Thanks

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] gregsarg:
That would be a great project to undertake ....

I agree with ranger ....OP ?

Are you up too the task ?

It would be a huge help for the users here ....IMHO
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717] Clark Joseph Kent:
This would be a great project, what format or program you plan on putting this together with, I would MS Project due the program imho has all the tools from excel/accces need to compile but must have time....

But keep in mind if you get into the nut & bots of these awesome ROMs is going to be time consuming, for an accurate assessment, you will have to install all the ROMs and to be far. But there is an issue, due to we have the same phone but may not act or react the same to the ROM...

Good Luck

So.... i used to be running ICS, I decided to unroot and go back to stock because I still had some of my prime subscription left. I tried to sideload minecraft (which I paid for) and it said that it failed to check my license which..... I cant do... Is there anyway to get around this?
[Kindle Fire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MURPHIX:
Well I think the best thing is to root again. SERIOUSLY I DON'T BELIEVE there is anyway one could do that without root

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ShawnDobie:
So I've been searching for awhile now, and I can't seem to figure this out, and hope it's not something easy that I missed. I'm trying to change the name of my phone and tablets. When I try to use AllShare Play, Google Chrome, and some other stuff, my stuff shows up as GT-P7510, GT-N8013, and SCH-R530U. I'd like to be able to see for example, Galaxy S3, Note Tablet, and Galaxy Tab instead. Neither of my tablets are rooted anymore, and I probably won't reroot my phone once I get Jelly Bean on here. Is this even possible for me?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ShawnDobie:
Bump. Anyone?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] evoer:

Try changing the net.hostname property, gonna need root though

getprop net.hostname

touchpad

root@android:/ #

Okay so last Tuesday i got my GS3 and the night after I decided to unlocked the bootloader and i flashed CWM and Cm10 on it. Everything was running smoothly and last night the battery fully drained so i went to bed and when i got up the next morning the phone got no charge so i went back to where i got it (Best Buy). They replaced without a problem but my question is Did rooting it or CM10 have anything to do with it not charging?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
There's a small possibility but its doubtful. Sounds more like hardware failure to me.

Thats what i was thinking, on the forums it seems like some international GS3's were getting a charging issue too.

Guys Im starting to get into building custom roms. But I am a beginner :( but been looking for threads and google on how to build roms.

Right now im starting to use stock based roms witch seems easier but as google takes me to deodex a stock rom I need xUltimate.

but have no idea on witch version I need to have

http://www.droidforums.net/forum/xeudoxus/47283-release-xultimate.html all the guides thread I found takes me to that link but as you can see there are several versions and for several devices.

I thought I need a little help from an expert on deodex stock ics roms of the t989

Oh one more thing, I assume the way we root stock roms doesnt install busybox and there are several apps for that on play store, witch is best?

I installed Koush's clockworkrecovery mod from the instructions on Cyanogenmod Wikia instead of the tutorial here. It doesn't seem to give an option for internal sdcard when in recovery mode. I tried the CWSuperuser 3.07.zip from the external drive and I get a Verification Error when it's checking the file.

I then used Odin3 to put on the clockworkrecovery mod from the XDA instructions. Now I've got two binaries on there, but it looks like it only picks up the original.

Is there a way to remove the original so that I can move forward with rooting and flashing my SGSIII.

Thanks in advance.

Hello there,

I have noticed a strange thing with the HTC One X, when i charge my phone although i turn it off before i plug it into the power outlet it always turns back on. Am i doing something wrong? I can't find a way to charge my phone in a turned off status and it's the first time i have come across with such a problem. Could you please help me out? I use the factory charger that came with the phone device.(I am on a stock ROM, never used a custom ROM before and i have smart screen pro for notifications)

Thank you in advance,

Okay finally found it, thanks to the xda search capability, the problem was the clockwork mod, after i flashed another recovery, the TWRP to be exact, the problem is solved. Now there is another issue, the phone still turns on but this time it boots to recovery mode. After some search, there is also a bug in TWRP which turns the phone on although previously it was turned off. I am using TWRP 2.2.2.0 and as for the CWM recovery i was using 5.8.4.0. I hope the guys at TWRP who did a great job by the way will try to fix this problem. I hope this info will help some people in the future if they happen to have the same problem as i did.

does any good screen protectors for the glide? theirs a lot of sticker ones but i looking for a one that help reduce scratches as well.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] DEFiANT69:
I heard LiquidArmor is pretty good. The company I work for sells it. However, I am not one who is pro screen protector. Use the gorilla glass your momma gave you ;)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
i was thinking about a protector cos i'm living outside of the NA region and afraid that it will be hard to replace/fix the screen itself.

I use this : http://cgi.ebay.fr/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=221009080994

Zagg Invisible Shield is a very good protection against scratches and dirt. One was gifted with my phone at first, and I ruined it in my pocket with my keys. I really think it saved my phone this day. So I bought this again but it was hard to found. Happily, it is easy to set with the provided fluid. ^^;

Now I have the full zagg protection (screen and back) with a Speck case. ;)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
didnt understand how it can help protect the back panel,

i bought the extrme_guard one, hope it will be good. didnt received it yet.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
quick re-cap on extreme guard screen protector, it does it jobs pretty well, but the screen protector itself get scratch rely easy. but as i said the scratch don't pass to the screen it self, so it 75 percent good. its pretty cheap via eBay. cost like 5 bucks with delivery and got a replacement straight after the first one scratched while appalling (maybe its my fault for not doing it right).

so take it with a grain of salt.

maybe next one i will buy will be zaggs one.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] taiber2000:
ok, the extreme guard is not good, it peels off after few days. i will go with the zagg one hope it will be better.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] gtmaster303:
Just a heads up, xtremeguard has 70% off the entire site and shipping is free. Use the coupon code 70OFF

You can get a screen protector for the Glide for $1.50. Considering most screen protectors are this cheap anyway, might as well invest in a quality one.

It's a pretty good deal for those of you that are into wet applications

http://www.xtremeguard.com/Samsung-...de_screen_protector.htm?CartID=1#.UPSet2cwhPc

The full body protection is a much better deal, but sadly there isn't one for the Glide
[Samsung Captivate Glide] sbiricuda:
I'm with xtremeguard ones. They last for about 6-7 months but i think they're totally worth the price and the quality is great. I've bought three: the first one has gone a few months ago due to accidental rubbing that slowly pulled up the corners and the whole protector; the second is the one i have on. It's great. The third is in my drawer just in case of need.

It would be a very good choice (especially consdering the price).

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bartekxx12:
Hi,

I would like to post something I found out.

The new leak for Jelly Bean for the S3 seems to be the FINAL version (XXDLH9) as when I go into about device and status, it says "Device Status - Normal"

Now with the previous leaks such as the (XXDLH8) it said

"Device Status - Modified", not initially but after an hour or so it did turn to Modified.

Also when going to check for updates with the new leak it just says no updates available, where as with the older leaks it used to say something like can not check for updates because you're using modified software or something like that.

Apart from that it is smoother than the XXDLH8 and seems to have no bugs.

So yeah I believe this is the final version

What do you think?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Id Arcanum:
no.

and did you root previous leaks / or flashed already rooted rom?

and, did you root LH9?

try, to better understand normal/modified. :)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bartekxx12:
No I didn't root my phone with any of these leaks, and I only ever flashed the official ones. But even then the previous leaks would change my status to modified where as the LH9 didn't. However none of them increased the binary flash counter.

But yeah only the newest leak says it's normal for me and allows me to check for updates.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Id Arcanum:
well i had lh8 & lh9 (ones i remember, not sure for lh7) showing me normal.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] donalgodon:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Faryaab:
I9300XXDLH9 is not a final release. The I9305 was running LH9 because it's the most recent Samsung TEST build. Even the Note II was not running final software at IFA. So, please stop speculating this info and creating more fuss about this.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ciscostud:

lol

just a few of the issues with this build...

taskbar is grey ????? WTF ? it should not be grey looks way out of place when you pull down the notification bar and its awesome black :D

also keyboard issues not just with stock keyboard but also with swiftkey pro

none responding crashes almost all the time when you first try to use it.

another massive issue this issue seems to have poped up and gotten worse between test builds.

im sure there are more small niggling issues but the keyboard issue for me is the massive issue im noticing all the time.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ramin1039:
also I have a shadow when I move between pages on home screen and when it's moved completely the shadow in gone but when i'm moving the shadow comes again On LH9

I have yet to find a problem on this one to be honest all is working i did have one fc with keyboard but it is working now, today i switched the keyboard to swiftkey and it stays on swiftkey even if i reboot.
