[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Euphoria64:
Maybe I'm just old fashioned, but the NFC thing doesn't personally interest me. It is definitely a neat feature, but I find it weird that some would hinge their decision on what device to get off this. I came from an iPhone 4, and I had a 3G before that. The iPhone is a great device, but SO is the S3. I chose to go android this time around mainly because I want MOAR screen! *drools on Note2* What's funny is I had basically no issues with the iPhone, aside from the OS being a bit boring and having to Jailbreak it to get some of the native functionality that android offers. I have however had some odd network connectivity issues with the S3 as of late, and the battery life is just a tad worse than the iPhone 4 I had. In the end both IOS and Android are great, just pick your poison. :D
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] :
A bigger screen n LTE support... a few layout changer but the UI remains the same old icon jungle...

People want something new guys... Apple is making old iphone new by some minute additions...

No real innovation...

Agree??? Hit THANKS

The phone isnt revolutionary or a world beater, the new iPhone is however evolutionary, is it better then the current iPhone sure is, better then the S3 probably not...still a good phone but not world beating by any stretch of the imagination. 4 inch screen is an improvement of course it doesnt compare to a 4.8 thats on the S3, lack of NFC is a disappointment but for most people not going to be a dealbreaker. That said if it does indeed include world bands of LTE in a single phone, I will more then likely buy it as a spend half my ti.me here in the US then other half split between Europe and Asia...Also if the iPhone gets anywhere close to 8 hrs of talk time on LTE, that would be pretty darn good...
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] dligon:
I'm going to laugh my ass off if samsung and htc gets a block on the release of the iphone 5 for using their 4g lte patents. I can just see the isheep waiting in line all day to get one and getting turned away. :victory:

so if apple comes out with a iphone ipad hybrid would it be called iphad and the crazy things apple users do http://uber-facts.com/2012/09/13/3549/
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Alex2x3:
Exactly! As a phone geek I was definitely excited for the announcement and was pretty disappointed. I feel like yes the I phone was amazing five years ago but they've just been riding their name since then but more and more people are catching on, even the general public.

But I was hoping they would get nfc so that it could actually start to be adopted. I want to carry just my phone and pay and use that as everything I have in my wallet. Guess we'll have to wait for I phone 6 haha.

This also coming as one of the many long time I phone users who are absolutely in love with their S3

Edit: I did have a pretty good laugh when "an extra row of apps" was even discussed as a feature during the keynote! :D
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] bbgt2:
Isnt LTE only used for data and not voice. Havent heard of any carrier using LTE for voice yet. So apples claim of 8 hour talk time is a bs marketing fail.

I will get drunk for 3 days if a court blocks sale of the iphone because of LTE patent infringement.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xlazaruzx:
I'll probably get one for the wife. What sucks is you have to buy the new lightning connector for $30 and it seems that iPod out and video out won't be supported.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] g2tegg:
I find it funny. Apple and Adobe don't get along, so every iOS user has no flash. Soon after, Adobe is dropping Android. Next gen iPhone is released, and no NFC. Guess what's going to disappear? You guessed it. NFC. Although its not used where I live, from what I heard its pretty popular out in Europe. The world spins in the direction that Apple wants it to spin.

Ok so I have my galaxy s3 att version rooted with faux's kernel on the stock rom. I havent received any updates since the original purchase and my battery life is suffering bad due to the cell standby problem (don't know how common it is) and is taking up ALOT of battery during the day. I need to get my phone up to the latest update so I can resolve this annoying problem. I leave it on standby doing absolutely nothing at all for 7 hours everyday and is always at %40 left starting off with %100. I dont know the process I need to do to update my phone to the latest and not lose all of my stuff and also be able to have it rooted on the latest update. Also a noob question but does it matter what version your on as far as how you root it? I would assume so but I dont know, and to clarify I mean like will only certain methods work on certain firmware versions?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Bruce Lee:
I have a few questions for you? Are using the most up to date faux kernel?

What do you mean by leaving your phone on standby? Screen off and leaving it alone or something else.

Try something for me. Is your phone deep sleeping? Download an app called cpu spy and see if your getting deep sleep? Then report back.

Ok I'm pretty sure my kernel is latest to day. By standby I mean it's on but I don't use it like you first mentioned and the screen is off and I don't do anything with it ever day for around 7 hours. I just downloaded the cpu spy and it says I am not getting deep sleep at all!

For the other post I'm gonna download that and flash it and see if it helps
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] XxTyboxX:
I downloaded and flashed that at stock update but there is only one problem. All my apps that require root are saying I don't have root access. I dot know what to do but that's the only problem and I need to know if I need to root it again and if so would it be the same method I did on the last firmware version I was on. And also just for more Info I still have cwm recovery too.

You don't know what u r talking about. The cell standby issue was just an incorrect value that caused it to report higher usage than actual. It had NO effect whatsoever in actual battery usage.

I have an s3, my brother has an s3. Same exact phone. I hadn't updated mine at all, my brothers was up to date. We both go to school and font ever use it because we obviously aren't allowed to and at the end of the day I always have around %40 and he has about %75-80. Please explain to me when it says that, and under battery usage that cell standby used some %80 of my battery drainage that wasn't a cell standby issue.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarlockLord:
My Nexus 7 was working fine up until yesterday. I hooked it up to my iMac at work and copied the latest version of the rom I use, flashed and everything seemed good. I noticed that last night the N7 didn't charge and the battery was really low, so I plugged it into my charger.

--Nothing--

Hooked it up to my computer

--Nothing--

Strange thing is, if I shut it down and leave it off, it detects the charger being plugged in and appears to be charging. Also, my OTG cable seems to be working fine. I hooked up my Xbox 360 wireless adapter and was able to pair and use it with my computer. I've tried wiping and re-flashing, restoring from backup, all results are the same.

Can someone give me some insight?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] angellsl:
It seems the battery is really low. Try to use the stock charger since it has higher current to charge
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] WarlockLord:
Doesn't matter what charger I'm using. If android is RUNNING, it will not charge not do any USB operations (except OTG) I can't read it on the computer, charge it off the computer, charge it off any USB charger including the stock one, adb to it, fastboot to it. But if I shut it down, it will charge when it's completely turned off.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] hooligan007:
It's charging same thing happened to me when I turned it on for the first time. After putting it on for some time remove it and after some time it turned on with full charge..

I can find so many people modding the SGS III to a transparent widget.I want but i dont like replace the original one as well.

Is it possible that somebody make a indepentent Zip for CWMR Flash so that we have 2 widgets (normal & transparent one)

[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] THeLogiC:
as far as i know its not possible for unlocked bootloader. you have to flash kernel via recovery in locked bootloader

I cant give more technical answer than that.

you can ask any dev :)
[XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sgt. meow:
if you're into reading, then learn about kexec in wikipedia. in locked bootloaders, the stock kernel is temporarily overwritten by another kernel that has the kexec module. however in unlocked bootloaders that won't work. so for the time being flashing kernels via CWM is not possible for unlocked bootloaders. funniest part is i don't even own an X10.

thanx for the answer :)

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cue_32:
Video calling didn't come with any stock ROM. Unless the Dev specifically added the video calling from GS2 i9100 and somehow made it work. Otherwise, there hasn't been any ROM with integrated video calling option since there are many 3rd party apps available.

Chrome is the all round best, but if you don't like Chrome then try Boat browser. I find it's a simply awesome browser.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Themes and Apps] mitchellvii:
I think if you are looking for an overall balance of speed, looks, extras and ease of use you can't beat Dolphin Beta.

The best thing is that it allows you to sync bookmarks online and displays them in a drag out sidebar on the left side of the page. It also supports folders and keeps your place in a folder. For instance, if you open a folder and click a bookmark that same folder will still be open and have the focus when you go back instead of having to drill down to it again. This can be a big time saver.

The only other browser that does this would be Maxthon which is also good but not as easy to use.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Themes and Apps] donec:
I have been having a great experience with Maxithon. I had tried it before and did not like it but it seems to almost be made for Gnote 10.1. IMO

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Themes and Apps] Tubgirl:
For me stock browser would be best if only there was a way to permanently set desktop mode and if it had text reflow.

* Opera Mobile: Nice with its text reflow but high bandwidth flash movies stutters sometimes.

* Boat Browser: Has working text reflow and excellent flash performance but doesn't hide the notification area when playing flash in full screen mode.

* Chrome: No flash.

* Maxthon: Flash has bugs on some sites.

* Dolphin: Works pretty good but doesn't have text reflow.

* Firefox: Lagging flash performance.

* ICS Browser: Has bugs and its text reflow doesn't work on Samsung devices.

If only Boat browser would hide the notification bar when showing movies in full screen mode it would be my first choice. I've emailed the developer about the problem and suggest you do the same and if we're lucky maybe it will be fixed.

You did not say if you use opera mini or mobile . I use opera mobile and never ever has it crashed it opens some other window in the background but it's not bother . Plus unlike stock browser this one can download files all the way . Stock browser has real problem downloading . Either it's unable to download ( for no reason what-so-friggin-ever ) or when you download " cannot parse package " . Only problem with opera is google maps , but I don't use it . I use original maps . Try installing some ad blocker and see if that minimizes pop-ups

I still enjoy using the stock browser for the option of multiscreen and it runs well with the tablet. Scrolling is smooth and no real problems that i can think of.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 Themes and Apps] darll:
Just leting you know that dolphin browser has text relow, although its a littke tricky. First pinch to zoom on the area you want to read then double tap on that area. The text will be reflowed at this point.

You probably know this but ild post it anyway for people who might not .

Stock browser on the other hand does not support text reflow but you can enable desktop mode for a particular session until you shutdown the browser completely. First type about:debug on the browser url bar. A java console dialog box will then be displayed beneath the url bar. Go to your browser settings at this point and you will see additional settings option.

Click on UA STRING then select desktop...Once this is done all your pages will be rendered in desktop mode for the duration of your session..

[Galaxy Note 10.1 Themes and Apps] 35fan:
Hidden tab staying active and hidden action bar?

Two things l miss from my Kindle color (my gateway tablet).

The browser - stock or Opera Mobile- allows streaming music and video to continue on hidden tabs. Many times I will have multiple tabs open, reading on the front and streaming YouTube or Stereogum on the hidden tab.

Opera Mobile collapses the bottom action bar into a thin maybe 1/8" line. A simple tap opens it up.

Anyway to get these two things implemented?
