What you guys on about i have the International S3 and it is perfectly normal and very bright i can see it in very sunny conditions. When i first bought the phone it was a sunny day i was sitting in the park messing about with it i can see everything on my screen. Unlike my HTC Desire this was awesomely bright. Anyway i dunno what is wrong with your one though.

Maybe i am wrong who knows but i am not trying to be a fan boy i have both iphone 4s and s3 both are good phones in their own way. but the s3's brightness is perfect for me.
[Galaxy S III General] spaco22:
you must live in the desert.

under sunlight, viewing from an angle S3 out performs the lumia 900, i own both.

and where did u get iphone5 to test the screen.

hope apple is not paying you

My Lumia was worlds better than my AT&T S3 (at 100%) under basic sunlight, not sure if there is a difference in the screens for Int. S3 vs mine, I hadn't thought there was? The iPhone 5 has iSight that will act to combat the sunlight wash, so it was a pre-emptive prediction, as the S3 has no tech in it to do that. I don't get why they didn't put the tech of Lumia screen into the S3, it would make sense.
[Galaxy S III General] mariosraptor:
Do you own an I747. You are in the wrong forums. This is for the i9300. Just saying this so you don't go and flash anything from here.

P:S. I love the screen of my s3 day or night:D

just Sunlight mode.

not like u can read much in those screens either.
[Galaxy S III General] Tomatoes8:
I think the clear black technology is good in direct sunlight.

Don't think it is a short coming of AMOLED. Technically they can can add a backlight if they want, but that is pointless and they might as well use LCD if they do that. And unless you had the 610 or the 710, you would know that your Lumia was OLED tech as well.
[Galaxy S III General] rastafier:
Enable auto brightness and uncheck at power saving mode. I have no problem reading at sunlight.
[Galaxy S III General] razorjumper:
I have problem reading under strong sunlight too, which is like every afternoon in Singapore...
[Galaxy S III General] aydc:
There are many reasons why I'm hugely disappointed with SGS3, but sunlgiht legibility is not one of them. The screen looks just fine under sunlight in my opinion.
[Galaxy S III General] jin1992:
i thoughts its fine
[Galaxy S III General] speedyjay:
No I just have my eyes open. The screen is fine in high sunlight same as many other people have reported. I suggest you either flash a different rom, or adjust your screen settings because something's not right

[Galaxy S III General] Manar Aleryani:
We're talking about real sunny days not like the ones you have in Britain. We all have the same problem. I'm currentluly usin a stock rom and have used many roms before and the phone in the sun is sometoimes really annoying even with maximum brightness. I had better performance from older phones (Razr Maxx, Photon 4g, htc sensation). I think it's because American telecom companies focus more on user experience.
[Galaxy S III General] ruk212:
My s3 beats every phone including yours :D
[Galaxy S III General] baileyjr:
Unbiased opinion. Having come from an iphone 4s to a s3 the s3 is not as good in direct sunlight even with the bridgtness turned up to full... Would never to back to the iphone but the S3 could definitely be improved in that area, and Im sure it will in time..
[Galaxy S III General] Ariozo:
Myself using s3 as daily device, but even if I can see my screen in direct sunlight it for sure not look as bright as some other screens.

Hello

I tried to use ionroad app, but failed because my sensors aren't working like it should. See the video for the problem.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCoc2cQNOKI

Running on cMIUI-2.8.10 and Siyah-s2-v4.1.5+

How could I fix that? I don't remember if the original rom had the same problem, because I didn't test any kind of app like that on it.

EDIT

Fixed. I booted to secondary rom (Paranoid Android) there was calibration button, calibrated and it works like charm.

I feel really dumb now lol. :)
[HTC Incredible S] filipelm:
Hello, if I manually change my rom I lose the option to update official HTC menu settings?

If I go back to the original rom, this option in the settings menu also returns?

I have a htc incredible s manufactured in Taiwan, official 4.0.3 updated to ics.

What is the original factory rom on the list?

thank you
[HTC Incredible S] WILLI120:
With enableing root you're loosing access to official OTA updates. But I doubt that there will be any left...

[HTC One X] H170k121:
Well first it seems my phone is not able to charge anymore... (Not even with the .bat file it just loses power when I try that)

Some times it manages to retain some charge but it goes away really fast when the screen is on.

I have no time to flash the device due to the low battery and super fast battery drain.

The sd seems to fail randomly, some times it is recognized, some it is not.

When you plug the phone to the usb in a pc a message USB device could not be recognizes appears some times (not always).

Blinking red light some times, never goes to green, eventually goes to solid red but doesn't charge enough to flash it.

Could the battery problem be software based? Actually it has no OS, Andriod flashed, no boot and only recovery is cloclwork latest version.

Any suggestions here? Everything is appreciated since it may be dead... I want to test anything and well tell you what happened, at least use it for science =P
[HTC One X] BenPope:
Go into recovery and charge from the mains with the original charger.

What happens?
[HTC One X] H170k121:
I'm trying to charge it and now using the .bat method but it won't go over 3565mV which is not enough to flash it. =S Dunno if letting it connected charges even if there is no notification at all.

And I've tried that and after turning it on and checking it never goes above 3.5 and I read I needed at least 3.68, what can I do? reset battery stats? or something else? Can I charge the battery directly? like with some cables?
[HTC One X] H170k121:
And also, the red led doesn't turn on. If I plug it toa pc it sounds like an usb is connected, but no led light. What can I do then?
[HTC One X] AusafSal:
I had the exact same prob. Change the USB Cable and/or the PC u are using. Mine was stuck at 3588mV. The cable of the SGS2 did the trick for me. It was my friend's!
[HTC One X] H170k121:
That's an interesting option I'm gonna try it, but I think it may not work because I tried to charge it at work with 3 different cables and chargers and no luck still. Buy maybe it was just the fact that between the time I charged it at work and got home it discharged, I'm trying this tonight and tell you what happens.
[HTC One X] H170k121:
No luck still, stuck at 3557mV and won't let me flash it.

Sometimes the phone even freezes in fastboot after some command tried.

How can I charge it then? O.o

Probably one of the features I miss the most is apps... Like on iPhone I usually find this cool new app download it and play with it, on my gs3 I love it but is hard to find new apps the plan store never seem to changed the the top50 from week to week/ month to month... I was using app brain but it doesn't get me that good results... Anyone knows of a good app for this, btw apple hates please don't reply I just want an answer about Android apps thanks :D

[General Topics] gilla409:
Well, it's about time for a new device, and I'm weighing my options. I'm on T-Mobile US, and would like to stay there, as I have a really cheap plan and great service where I live.

I spoke to a CS representative last night, and he made me a deal for a SGS2 for $179 after $50 rebate. I really like the T-Mobile SGS2, but then again, the SGS3 is awfully tempting. Comparing the two, the biggest differences are the larger screen, extra gig of ram, S4 processor, and the gimmicks Samsung threw into the SGS3. However, I really hate the color choices on it, and it's a bit bigger than I'd like. I currently have an HTC Sensation 4g, and wouldn't mind having a bit bigger screen, but the SGS3 dwarfs my Sensation.

I really hate asking a "which phone" question, but I've never used either device before, and would like some feedback from folks who have owned them. I will definitely be rooting and flashing a custom ROM either way, but I'm just wondering what the real-world differences are, assuming they're running the same (or similar) ROMs. I've compared the two as far as features and specs, but I'm hoping someone can shed some light on how the two stack up against each other under regular use.

So what do ya think? Scoop the SGS2 up on the cheap, or take the plunge on the ugly blue or white hulk of the SGS3?

I've only been experiencing this problem ever since i started using a MIUI rom, every version i use i still get the same problem of when sending a message and say someone just texted me and its coming through my message i just sent will automatically fail but then i still get the bar saying "message sent". Just wanna know how to fix this because its annoying have the little box pop up all the time saying "message failure". Is it a problem to where i should flash a new radio that will work better with the rom? Thanks in advance!
[HTC Sensation] rzr86:
try from recovery to wipe cache+dalvik and see if it works
[HTC Sensation] realsis:
You can also try downloading the Rom again with a FULL wipe and clean installation like above post says wipe cash wipe dalvik, also try wipe data factory reset and clean install. Hopefully this will take care of the issues. If issues still persist perhaps it's a "bug" of sorts in the Rom? Are others expirencing this issue using this Rom ? Or just you? Does your mms work correctly using other roms? If so and clean install does not work you might have to try a different Rom until issue is solved. Have you tried mms fix? I believe in either android development or themes and apps they have a application called mms fix? I believe I remember seeing it. That's also worth a try. Best wishes .

I was browsing the Forums and didn't find any answer related to my problem.

When i bought my Samsung Galaxy S2, there was no problem with overheating. After a half year of usage, it started with some overheating problems.

The overheating is located at the camera level. I'm not using any Wi-Fi or Mobile data either, so what could possibly be wrong?

Also, this overheating is draining a lot of battery. So help would be appreciated. :)

I purchased an S 2 from AT&T a while back. I have sense let my plan run out and now bought a prepaid SIM card. the problem is is that now my data does not work because of the 4 G AT&T does not offer 4 G with a prepaid. there is hardly any 4 G coverage where I'm from anyways but I would at least like the 3G to work. is there a way that I can get it to work like flashing ROM or something. I'm not a total noob to this stuff I just hang out at android Forums because of my zte. thank you very much for any of your help.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MotoMudder77:
If your SIM card doesnt allow it, then its not gonna be possible. No S/W can change that.

But if your SIM does allow 3g, then odds are you need proper APN settings. Google it if thats the case.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jdremler:
I would think that it would the 50 dollar monthly unlimited plan. from everything that I've read thus far I've got it narrowed down to something with the phone. I read about the apn settings once before and thought that that was it so I will definitely read more and do what needs to be done.thanks

Hi All,

I did a research on the forum but couldn't find the answers. Could someone please help me?

The scenario:

I was S-On and rooted then relock and RUU back to install the recent OTA.

Then I tried to unlock and flash the Amon Ra Recovery using Hasson's AIO toolkit v2.1.

Now my HBOOT is look like below and my phone is rooted and able to operate normally.

*** TAMPERED ***

*** UNLOCKED ***

VIGOR PVT SHIP S-ON RL

HBOOT-2.25.0000

RADIO-1.22.10.0421r/1.22.10.0424r

OpenDSP xxxxx

Apr 12 2012

Questions:

1) Can I still install custom ROM with the "TAMPERED" status? If not, how to solve this?

2) I saw some screen shot with HBOOT 2.27, RADIO 2.22.10, and the date is Aug 6, 2012. I supposed my phone has been updated to the latest but it seems not. How can I get there?

Really appreciate your precious time and generous help!
[HTC Rezound] PhantasmRezound:
1) Yes, that particular message does not affect functionality. It reads "Tampered" on the stock bootloader if a custom recovery is installed.

2) Those are from the global update, which you can download a full RUU for that from here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...ull-ruu-build-4-03-605-2-for-the-htc-rezound/

I updated the binaries in the super user app but the terminal emulator still returned a $ when i typed in su. So naturally i flashed the latest superuser zip (3.1.3) from recovery and i still cant get SU access.

Help? Please?

Hi All,

I recently rooted my VZW S3 (only rooted, didn't unlock bootloader or anything else), and ever since then the Kernal is eating up a huge amount of my battery. I attached a few screenshots. Other than that, the root went well (first time). Tasker and Secure Setting etc. all work great. Any ideas of the kernal?

Also, while I'm here, I was wondering if anyone else shows "unlimited" data on their account that was supposed to be on a tiered plan? I missed the boat when upgrading my phone and was going to lose my unlimited data (got the new phone on August 20th). As of right now, when I login to MyVerizon it still shows that I have unlimited. Not complaining, but I don't want to just assume that I have it if it says it since I know I'm not supposed to.

Thanks in advance!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bionik9:
I rooted and downloaded EZ-Recovery and EZ-Unlock (Bootloader). I was going to install CWM through EZ recovery and it said successful, but then when I click "Reboot to Recovery", nothing happens. When I use the Vol Up + Home + Power, I get to stock recovery.

This is after I had to Odin back to stock because apparently the bootloader unlock didn't work right. It said Unlocked, but I got the big yellow exclamation point telling me that unauthorized software was detected and to bring it to a Verizon store.

So, anyways, I'm on a bloated stock with Root, but now I think I can't get to where I have CWM...

Any ideas on why EZ Recovery isn't working for me and what I did wrong before that the bootloader didn't unlock?

[Asus Transformer TF700] paddycr:
I finally got my replacement Infinity from Best Buy and it seems like its a keeper :) Given that some decent looking JB roms have appeared I am going to unlock. I am having some indecision about which recovery to use before the flash-fest begins.

I use TWRP on all of my other devices but after reading the thread in the dev section I am a little hesitant about using it on my TF700. Specifically, it seems like some people have been having problems restoring because TWRP doesn't deal with restoring /boot properly. I had exactly the same problem with my Prime and all of my TWRP nandroids were useless without flashing a kernel after restoring. This is a bit of a problem if this happens with the TF700 since there are no custom kernels available yet.

These are my questions:

- How common are the problems with restoring TWRP nandroids? Can most people successfully restore with TWRP?

- How well does CWM perform? Looking at the thread it seems like it works just fine or am I missing something?

I appreciate all of your input. Thanks!
[Asus Transformer TF700] Pretoriano80:
To be honest i have the same problem with CWM ,it doesn't restore /boot so you can't switch between various roms by just just restoring your backups.This beeing said i didn't had any issue with TWRP and so far is more user friedly than CWM.
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
I have been using TWRP exclusively and have been going back and forth between 4 different roms, restoring from each, and have had zero issues. I believe the problems reported related to those who had flashed the TF300 JB update and replaced their bootloader with one for TF300. If they hadn't made a full nandroid prior, I think they were stuck with that bootloader until the most recent .30 ota update. I could be wrong, but I think these issues you heard about were related to the TF300 bootloader.
[Asus Transformer TF700] paddycr:
Thanks okantomi. I'll try TWRP but keep the stock rom on /sdcard in case of emergency. Now, which rom shall I try...decisions, decisions :D
[Asus Transformer TF700] okantomi:
Of the JellyBean Roms, the 9/14 versions of Baked Black Bean and the CM10alpha work well, but the latest version of CM10 (9/18) won't boot all the way into the os. Hiemashu is working on it. Also the TEAM EOS Jellybean has issues (random reboots and newest doesn't boot). My best recommendation would be to flash the ZEUS v4.0 ICS Rom. It's complete and nice and fast. You won't be sorry. Read all of the OPs and follow instructions. Have fun!
