[Galaxy S III General] mossy1963:
You can't tell from the pictures, and I don't know why the poll excludes the originals.

Manufacturers know what they're doing (they use something called market research!) and generally release the best colours first. Subsequent variations are purely to keep the product interest high and these colours are no doubt aimed at the kiddy market as the price drops.

Personally I'm delighted with my white one

Ok here is the problem I have, after a full wipe My asus wont work no more, I have CWM touch, and it wont read the external SD.

I try to fix it with APX and NVFLASH but after I click on the .BAT file the USB Disconnects.

I need a way to replace CWM with a new version so that it will read the SD Card to Flash a new Room.

Thank you for your help

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Okapine:
I was playing a game with my nexus plugged in, and randomly in the middle of it, the whole screen flashed yellow purple and black horizontal lines. As soon as I unplugged it, it stopped and the device shut off. It was a bit hot, but I assumed the game was just working the device hard. I'm not overclocking at all, and though the device has cooled down, it still won't turn on. Any idea what happened?

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mvmacd:
the papers in my box had warranty information, but it was not the warranty itself.

The warranty is 12 months, and if it was bought via Google Play, I have heard reports that you must have an order number in order to get your N7 serviced. I'm not sure if it's true or not.

Worst case scenario, call up Asus, give the the Serial Number [located in Settings->About->Status, also located on the clear sticker that shipped with the N7 next to the speaker grill], they will see it was purchased less than a year ago, and should set up an RMA for you. You do however have to pay S/H fees to ship it to Asus, but they ship it back free.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KosanRio:
Hey guys! I just managed to get a Verizon Xperia play in very good shape for $50 on eBay and I have some questions.

What kind of battery life will I get with this thing playing emulators with Airplane Mode on? (Since I have AT&T and won't be using it as a phone)

What do I do to root and install a custom ROM on a CDMA Play?

How's the performance in N64 and PS1 emulators?

Can this thing actually OC to 2GHz?

Are there any extended batteries that don't require a bigger cover to use that are any good and cheap?

And lastly is there any random **** I should know about this thing?

Thanks guys.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Xperia Player:
I'm new to the modding scene but I've owned an xperia play since July 15th 2011 I should be able to help you out here.

1: I've never played with airplane mode on because my phone functions as a phone and I've just never used it while playing games, also it depends on what games you will be playing, emulators? android touch games? android HD games? etc.

2:Rooting is very simple Google search and download SuperOneClick and follow the on screen instructions, however, installing a custom rom can be either hit or miss, what I mean by this is. Some roms say they work with a locked bootloader, but from my experience with this phone (R800X) I couldn't ever get a rom to flash when my bootloader was locked. Now if you want to unlock your bootloader it will cost around $24 to do so, then you should have no issues flashing a custom rom.

3:I've only played 2 PS1 games, but have played countless N64 games. The performance for N64 emulation is practically flawless, you may have to adjust frame rate here and there but nothing major. As for PS1, some games glitch up a bit and some games require numerous settings to be enables. I played Tekken 3 with no problem, I think the opening screen glitched out on me but I was able to chose a character and fight with no problem. The second game I've played was Metal Gear Solid, this game requires setting adjustments. I simply watched a youtube video and copied the setting to match mine, after that, not a problem.

4: I do believe it is possible to Overclock it to 2.0ghz with Doomkernel (which I THINK* requires an unlocked bootloader by the way) but overclocking is dangerous, especially at 2.0ghz. I won't advise it.

5:As far as extended batteries go, to my knowledge, they all require and come with a special back piece designed to hold the new battery in place, I use a case on my phone so having an extended battery wouldn't benefit my cause.

6:Random ****? Hmmmm... only thing that pissed me off about this phone is that the CDMA versions rom collection is inferior to the GSM model. The CDMA version has like 5 custom roms, where as the GSM version has an entire ****ing library full of roms. BUT, since you're using this as a gaming system and not an actual phone go ahead and try some GSM roms (Just make sure their not for unlocked bootloaders only, or have have crippling affects e g. home button doesn't function)

Just keep reading threads and what not, sometimes you gotta dig deep but it's usually worth it.

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] james44422:
Welcome to the Xperia Play club....

What kind of battery life will I get with this thing playing emulators with Airplane Mode on? (Since I have AT&T and won't be using it as a phone)

I did the same thing for a bit, only playing emulators and browsing the web and listening to music. I was using the stock rom at the time, nothing custom. The battery life was good. I dont have any hard numbers but I never remember battery life being an issue. I now use it as my phone, use a custom ROM and kernel and battery life has gone down but still find it moe than adequte. Lets put it this way, I took it off charge the other morning, listened to music on the way to work and a little bit more while at work. Played a SNES game during my lunch. Listened to music on the way home, browsed the web when I got home, played some more SNES games, got to about 8PM and the battery warning mesage just popped up. From what I read i'm quite lucky with the battery life on this phone but I dont think you should have any issues.

What do I do to root and install a custom ROM on a CDMA Play?

As mentioned before, SuperOne click to root. Some ROMs will say the require an unlocked bootloader, this is so you can flasha custom kernel, ROMs like cyanogen mod will need an unlocked bootloader but there are loads of great ROMs for the play that dont need an unlocked bootloader

How's the performance in N64 and PS1 emulators?

If you are using GB then Psxperia is the way to go, I used that for FF7 without any issues. If you want to upgrade to ICS then FPSE, was well worth the money. Performance can be hit and miss with some games though. Platformers like Crash Bandicoot and Spyro play fine but some other games like THPS2 and Chrono Cross are simply no go (at least for me, if anyone knows how to get these games working reliably then let me know!)

I'm using a beta release of the N64 emulator from paulscode.com. Runs sweet as a nut!

Can this thing actually OC to 2GHz?

Yes, haven't done it personally but the option is out there (this will require an unlocked bootloader)

Are there any extended batteries that don't require a bigger cover to use that are any good and cheap?

Yes, I have seen them but again haven't used them so cant give an honest opinion, at least not for my Play

And lastly is there any random **** I should know about this thing?

If alessandro is still around get him to unlock your bootloader, he charged me £15 and it was worth it. Maybe get a cover for your Play as mine is scratched to hell on the back and the buttons are loosing their finish but thats it really.

Hope this is helpful, i'm new here but I have been browsing these forums for so long I thought it was about time to share what i've learnt
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KosanRio:
Haha well **** me I get a message on eBay this morning from the seller "I test all items before sending them out. This was my second phone and it is not powering on. I am not gonna send out something that knowingly does not work, it would not be fair to the buyer and not good business etiquette. I am refunding you and I apologize." I'm sure the seller just wanted to relist it and get more money. I really wanted one of these so I grabbed a $25 "For parts or not working" one that says it powers on and has a good LCD, wish me luck!

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ridder215215:
About the overclocking: You can overclock to 2.0GHz with Doomkernel, but not every phone can handle this. Some just reboot, some run fine (maybe a little hot). My phone reboots above 1.8GHz. To flash custom kernels you need an unlocked bootloader, so I'd try and get a R800i, because it's way easier to unlock the bootloader of that version.

Hi guys, i am using Tmobile Samsung galaxy s. (sgh-t959v).

i was using it with froyo after that i update it to the gingerbread (with instrctions on samsung website).

i use kies and easly updated without any problem.

After a month i dont know why but i root my phone with a software (i dont remember the name but maybe the superuser was the name)

after that i checked it was rooted and i could delete some unwnated apps..

BUT now i wanna UNROOT my phone.. i just wanna use it with factory settings..

i did full reset/factory format(with *#2767*3855#) but i think it just delete the personel data on the phone..

i never use before odin so i do not know it is easy or hard..

my first question is, can i do it with kies?

and second question is if NO how can i find original file(2.3.6) for my phone and hoiw can i install it (unroot).

thank you very much.

Best chance to find what you are looking for is in the correct forum. This is the Vibrant forum (SGH-T959). You need to look in the Galaxy S4g threads (SGH-T959V.

Edit:: Here are the terminal commands to Unroot if you need them then reboot, profit.

su
rm -r /system/app/Superuser.apk
rm -r /system/xbin/busybox
rm -r /system/bin/su
reboot

You may need to take su out of xbin if it is in there too. Check before running these codes to see which or both it lies (/bin and*or /xbin)

Hi i just came form S2 to S3 and my signal is real bad

i use to get 4 bars in my house now i get 2 bars at work i use to get 3 bars now i get 1 bar with S3

I have Blazer rom rooted LG8 modem ?

i still have the s2 and i get 5 bars with S2 and i get 3 bars with S3

Can someone advise me or help me how to get a better signal cause this is killing me

Thanks
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascertion:
My signal is better/stronger with the GS3 than the GS2 was. Maybe it's just capacity grew when the S3 came out and made your area more congested?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] saj070:

S3 is half of what S2 is pulling don't know what to think ?? I hope there is no defect in MODEM or ANTENNA in S3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Tewlman252:
Signal bars on custom ROMs are meaningless. I've only got one bar and I'm still pulling in 1.2 Mb per second. In other words there just as strong as the s2 just not display properly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascertion:
Look in settings > About Phone > Status and tell me if the -dBm signal strength is the same on both devices. The lower it is, the better connection to the tower. Both phones may be programmed to display different bars when it reaches a certain dBm level.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ydoucare:
The higher it is (closer to 0), the better. :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] freecharlesmanson:
Really. I question this because my s2 never did this good and if you remember was plagued with los as well as just plain bad radio, GPS was mediocre,and Wi-Fi was bad. Honestly a barn door or a flip phone do better for reception. Hell even after the los got fixed it was typical to see 3%t. W. S.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] saj070:
Thankyou all for the reply

here the signal info

S3 - -87 dBm 4 asu

S2 - 78 dbM 8 asu

Don't know what it really means
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Shoulon:
-75 is decent connection. Its what I get which is half bars for me

Sent from a Galaxy SIII presented by Sprint.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] saj070:
Thanks all i think signal strength is the same now but S3 is not showing the bars correctly

2 bars on S3 is the same as 4 bars ob S2 cause my download and upload speed are very close.

SO conclusion is signal strength on S3 is not showing the correct reception bars highlighted.

OH well thanks for all your help ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] boomerbubba:
There is no such thing as "correctly" displaying bars. Bars are undefined. They just show whatever the OEM marketers and designers want them to show. We might as well call them unicorns. It is never valid to compare "bars" across different devices, or sometimes even across different firmware on the same device. About all you can be reasonably sure of is that on any given device with a given firmware, more "bars" should represent a stronger signal than fewer "bars."

The dBm signal strength readings are standard units and useful insofar as you understand what they are measuring.

Be aware that on the current GS3, both the bars and the dBm display for RSSI under Settings -> About device -> Status are based on the received signal strength (RSSI) for the 1x CDMA voice/text connection, not the data connection, although that should be similar. And if you ever want to measure signal strength for an LTE data connection, the only place to find that is in hidden DEBUG menus.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MadFlava:
Try a different modem. I found the LG8 modem to not be very good.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] boomerbubba:
Unless you ever want to get a decent LTE connection, for which LG8 is basically a requirement.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MadFlava:
Most of us dont have LTE yet. I didnt see the OP note that he was in an LTE area.

LTE is supposed to be coming here. I hate to flash back to that sorry modem but I guess I should.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ronnienyc:
"

S3 - -87 dBm 4 asu

S2 - 78 dbM 8 asu"

Forget the bars. The above means that your GS2 is indeed getting better signal than the GS3.

As others have suggested, try different radios (there are currently 4 to choose from). I tried earlier versions, but my phone works best with LG8.

android:textColor="#ff33b5e5"

.

Similarly do it for date too by searching for the line "com.android.systemui.statusbar.DateView" and add the same line at the end of that code.

Recompile and follow the rest of procedure. :cowboy:
