[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] d4fseeker:
A tracking app is already included in the ROM by Samsung. Custom sammy-based Rom's usually also include this.

Norton doesnt seem to recognize this version (there may well be dozens out there, some from leaked builds) and thus decides to criticise.

Fail on it's part: if a virus managed to install itself into the system partition (requires root) then it could have blocked Norton from finding it.

Do people seriously still rely on Symantec???

Im new on android i had all apple device before but its kinds scared when ur antyvirus found some virus in phone even when i click on remove it says can bot remove :((
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
Rest assured that it isn't a virus, why don't you email Norton with regard to it so they can sort their rubbish software out and get it working properly?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chamkilla:
Tnx for reply im tjinking about going back to original rom
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slaphead20:
just use a different anti virus, rest assured that if a Rom was doing anything dodgy it would be shut down and the creator banned from xda very rapidly :)

I got the prepaid card to add fine, but when i go and type in the info for a normal card, it just hangs at adding card. I can go to the wallet website and the card will show up.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] galchristian:
You described that pretty short. But from my understanding the card your trying to add is syncing on your phone since a long time, but it show's up already online. Did you try to restart your phone? If that doesn't work did you try removing then re-adding that card. Also if those two don't work you could always clear data from Settings/Application manager/All/Wallet (Clear cache first then Clear data)

Hope this helps. Good Luck! :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jrc27:
I've pretty much tried everything i can think of. I'm now running the official CM10 09-05 nighty. I have no problems getting wallet installed, it's just that it never adds the cards. Now it won't even add the google prepaid.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] galchristian:
That's very odd. Did you try to remove and reflash the Wallet? Or maybe it's a problem on Google's end and should call them and ask maybe they can reset your Wallet.

Here is how I did it.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Marcismo55:
Did you switch your build.prop back to the original one before you added the new card? If so, I believe that is your problem and you may want to revise your build prop back to the way it was when you installed wallet, reboot, then try to add a card.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Sccrluk9:
this. I had the exact same issue and couldnt figure out why I couldnt add a new card. It was only when I was later resetting wallet to flash a new ROM did I realize I had change my build.prop back. Quickly modified it back to the Nexus and added the card in a few seconds.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] galchristian:
This is a good idea, even tho I changed my build prop only to get wallet installed and added my cards after I switched it back to the stock build prop. But hey it could work good luck
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jrc27:
I had never switched it back to stock because i hadn't added any cards yet. Somehow i got it working. I cleared the app cache and data, uninstalled it, rebooted to recovery and wiped cache's, reflashed and i got it to work!! Must be dumb luck that i got it to work.

Question when calling google though. Do you just tell them your device is a nexus and your provider is someone other than verizon?

Also, what happens if i don't restore my build.prop back to stock?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Marcismo55:
Nothing should happen if you don't return it back to stock as long as your build.prop shows Galaxy Nexus. If it is anything else it could possibly change what apps are available to you in the playstore and your tapatalk signature.

I was tempted to call Google about my pre-paid card balance showing as "not available" (on AOSP roms), however, they are completely against rooted phones so you might not get too far. I would try to avoid calling them unless you REALLY need to.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] galchristian:
Yes try to avoid it of course. But honestly I don't think they care they have never asked me what carrier I was or what phone I had. And I did call them not that long ago cause while I installed wallet my phone decided to update apps and since my build prop had to be different for that amount of time to install wallet my play store wasn't functioning very well when I put my original build prop back..the play store gave me all sort of error codes when just trying to download or purchase an app. They helped me to reset framework and they also asked me to reset wallet and all worked fine ever since. :victory:

I guess if they asked what phone it was just say it's a nexus but personally they never asked me. good luck
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jrc27:
Yeah, i've found you'll have to lie to them about what device and provider you are on. When i said i was on the Nexus from Verizon, she said we don't support Verizon.....Basically if it works it works and if it doesn't, don't call us, lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Neonfire:
Just checked my backups and I noticed that all the backups have the same date (something like 01-01-1970). Anyway to fix this? I guess I'll just have to reflash them all until I find my stock image, but after that at least there has to be a fix... right?

[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] konsch:
sorry i posted this under an irratating name and didnt find the button to edit the topic title

m trying to set up a desktop like experience with the xperia s, im just in the beginning and have upgraded the phone to the newest hardware.

what im trying to do is in no particular order

1) connect the x S to a preferably vga monitor

2) connect the x S to a powered USB HUB (with at least mouse and keyboard)

is it possible to have a USB HUB running with the devices and at the same time charge the phone?

3) install Ubuntu on the phone

obviously it should work 1 & 2 & 3 at the same time

maybe someone knows which problems i may encounter?

thanks in advance for answering
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
1) No, HDMI only

2) No, you can't charge a hub master from the hub

3) Installing Ubuntu is possible with chroot, but it will be slow.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] konsch:
i think your only right with your second point
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
No. The Xperia S doesn't have VGA outputs (obviously) and chrooted Ubuntu will not have hardware acceleration for the UI (well, for anything) because there are no Adreno X drivers, therefore it will fall back to vesa (software) which, combined with Unity, will be SLOW.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] konsch:
dont you think one can use a micro hdmi vga adapter??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
Basically, VGA is analog, HDMI is digital. You'll need a converter to do that, not a simple cable.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] konsch:
ok thanks for your insight so it is easier with a dvi monitor i guess?

is there a linux system which works without chroot??
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
It is not easier because HDMI and DVI formats are not compatible. And no, there's no native Linux on Qcom devices. Even if we were to build a native system, it wouldn't have any graphics acceleration.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Gloris:
1. use a hdmi screen

2. best bet is to use the Sony Livedock and connect a wireless keyboard/mouse combo that works from one usb dongle. (i use this http://www.staples.co.uk/technology...yboards-and-mice/wireless-touch-keyboard-k400), works like a charm.

3. not sure, sorry. i know there is a way of running some sort of windows 95 emulator or something, but don't know about any linux dist.

my setup is hdmi out to my hdmi projector with logitech k400 conntected via livedock, so the phone can charge while i'm using it for things like internet browsing/long emails etc. also if you need to connect more devices, like a separate dongle for mouse.keyboard and maybe usb flash drive and usb controller at the same time, you can use a usb hub connected to the live dock. i use a non powered one and can connect my logitech k400, an xbox controller (wired) and a usb microsd reader at the same time).

hope that helps.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] simonf7:
As far as I am aware they are for video - no audio on DVI.

I have a DVI to HDMI cable connecting my media center pc to my tv and another one connecting the HDMI on my sky+ box with the DVI on a monitor?

Si
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
I don't think the format the Xperia S uses is DVI compatible.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] darth5zaft:
I thought we can install ubuntu as a virtual machine in android. It slow but bearable.

The crooth thinggy if not mistaken is an emulator, so it is slower.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] K900:
No. Chroot (CHange ROOT) is a way to run Linux on an Android kernel, which is as fast computationally as a native boot.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] DrKrFfXx:
It is compatible. I have a cheapo HDMI to DVI adaptor that I use to connect the cable that came with the phone to my DVI only monitor and it works as it should.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gdourado:
Hello,

How are you?

So I noticed a small issue with my nexus.

When I am in a Phone Call, the earpiece kind of distorts the voices. It is hard to explain, but it is kind of like a robotic echo voice...

The situation returns to normal if I lower the Volume to about 40%.

The voice over the earphones or the external rear loudspeaker are fine though...

So, based on this, is it a defective earpiece, or a software problem that can be solved with an upgrade to radio/baseband?

Anyone else had this issue?

Thank you.

Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Col. Sanders:
I too am having an issue with the volume and quality of sound coming from the ear piece. I can barely hear anyone and if there is any kind of ambient noise around forget it. From what I've gathered it is a bug in JB or 4.1. There are a few fixes floating around to increase the overall system volume, but they seem to fall short when it comes to the in call ear piece volume.

I have tried build prop edits with no luck.

What version of Android are you using 4.0 or 4.1?

I am going back to 4.0 Cyanogen Mod 9 to be exact and will see if this fixes it, if not this phone is going to have a date with a Big hammer.

Maybe some of the folks on here will chime in and offer some help or suggestions?:confused:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gdourado:
Hello,

Thank you for your reply.

I am running the stock 4.1.1.

My problem is not the volume. I have to lower the volume to be able to have a good quality output.

If I increase the volume, the sound increases, but the voice on the other side becomes distorted un a robotic maner.

It is har do explain.

Cheers!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Col. Sanders:
Wow I wish mine was loud, I may go by the Sprint store and play with their demo phone.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] chopper the dog:
If it sounds like the person is speaking through a kazoo, you have a bad ear piece. Had same issue on first gen sgs.

good day.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Col. Sanders:
So I finally broke down and called a guy I knew that worked at the Sprint store he said to bring it in. I asked if it was cool that it was rooted and he said no prob, they placed a test call and said and the tech said," you have a bad speaker come back in a few hours and it will be fixed."

You do not know how many hours I spent looking up fixes,flashing this trying different kernels blah, blah, blah.

Take it in and have them look at it, just be cool with them and don't try to BS them. Hope this helps a little.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] gdourado:
I think that's my problem. The sound looks like it is coming through a kazoo.

Oh well, guess I'll order a new earpiece...

I've bought a X10i phone, but now I have a few problems:

- When I've bought it I've checked for new updates and with that PC software (Sony PC Companion) I've made the firmware upgrade to the last one available from sony ericsson;

- After that the phone started to reboot and at the end stoped working;

- As i know the battery is not ok, I've bought a new one with more capacity (Gold 2680Mah from ECELL);

- As the phone don't start, I've made a "repair" from PC Companion and phone start working... the problem is that the reboots continue;

What should I do?

- Downgrade? How?

- Install custom rom? How?

Please give me some advise on this. I think my phone is not rooted yet (when is starting i press the BACK key and nothing happens).

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toledo_JAB:
You still have stock kernel, for now its ok.

With that kernel you need to stay with stock based custom roms, like x10s, wolfbreaks.

Cm 7 & 9 and ics roms require a different kernel

I would start by flashing Rom in cwm then use flashtool and flash a Doomkernel. But dont forget to get WiFi.zip for that kernel.

Once you have done that and all is well start reading up on your favorite Rom and go for it. I say to start with stock and DooMKernel cuz there hard to mess up ;)

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toledo_JAB:
Well you can do a couple things.

You can flash stock 2.3 and unlock bootloader.

You can flash a kernel, may get rid of reboot. Rom stays the same.

You can flash a Rom.

My opinion is unlock, kernel then Rom.

Root is built-in the custom roms, so dont worry about it. you will have it.
