[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wilks3y:
I agree with what you're saying, but I don't see any point in the N7 leaving the house, unless your taking it somewhere for a purpose. Because the N7 doesn't have any data capabilities and pretty much needs WiFi to function.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brooksyx:
The N7 pairs perfectly with tethering on my galaxy nexus :p Not that I have had the chance to take nexus 7 anywhere yet ha.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tcat007:
I miss my 24" PC screen, but it's a bit bulky to carry around. I went from 5" Galaxy Player to N7 and haven't touched my GP in 3 months.... but I do like the font size on the Galaxy Player on many apps that just look too small on the N7 (especially Amazon Appstore). Use my phone about 5 minutes a month... N7 is awesome!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wilks3y:
That isn't the point though in my eyes.

Yes it pairs perfectly with my HOX too, but that means I need both of my devices for the Nexus to work, and for what I use it for while im out and about (e-mail, facebook, twitter etc) tethering the HOX to the N7 to do that doesnt seem like theres a point to that.

So I will just keep using my N7 for home use, unless I really want to take it out for someone.

Btw, this wasnt a dig at you !
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brooksyx:
No I agree. Anything I can do on my nexus 7 I can do on my phone. I will mainly use mine at home or take it with me on a trip. I am not going to lug it with me to work or something.

Sold my HP TouchPad to put toward my Nexus 7. The Nexus definitely fits my purposes better for portability, but the TouchPad had a more appealing screen, although much to big to tote around...
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wilks3y:

Actually I'd prefer to have a device slightly bigger, the new amazon kindle fire hd 8.9" sounds about perfect, just wish it had tegra 3 :)

I wouldn't want a 10" tablet though, I prefer the N7 for the weight/size.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toast95135:
I really like the 7" form factor and after having a 10" Transformer IMO it's the perfect size for tablets. Small enough to be portable but large enough to view stuff easily. I hate typing on a larger screen because I have to hold it with one hand and peck at the keys with the other, I dont like Thumb Keyboard either.

Anyone who wanted a 10" tablet - would get a 10" tablet.

Been carrying my Nexus 7 all around town this morning - never felt the absence of internet.

Actually - I never go anywhere without it...

Every coffee shop and restaurant I go to provides very good WiFi.

Places without, I use the chance to catch up on my reading.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] regalpimpin:
I've still got my g-tablet and prime.

Although they are both pretty much collecting dust. I'll use the prime occasionally for web browsing because of the bigger screen. Or for real work, since I have the keyboard. But otherwise, the Nexus is just so much easier to carry around. It's my go to.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] espionage724:
part of me wants to try out a 10 inch tablet, but I don't know. I do admit I like the portability of 7 inch tablets :) Can't say I would be able to drag a 10 inch tablet everywhere.

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppls:
Hi all,

I like the DSC rom very much, using it since 1.0 on my streak. Thanks for your great work!

During my holiday I noticed a problem with GPS (with DSC 1.4), which wasn't there before. Now on 1.5 the problem still exists. Now I hope, you can help me.

When I start a navigation software (Navigon or Locus pro) the GPS symbol appears. After getting a GPS fix, the symbol dissapears for a glimpse, reappears and the search for a GPS fix starts again. With the app "GPS status" there is the same problem, if I start it afterwards.

The only way to get a steady GPS fix is to deactivate/reactivate GPS in android menu and then start "GPS status". If I afterwards start Navigon or Locus Pro, GPS doesn't work anymore.

I used the search, so I can say:

- No, I don't use any arabic patch

- No, I don't have 3d chainfire driver installed

- I wiped dalvik cache every time I updated ROMs

- Post #626 in DSC developer thread describes the same problem I think, but I didn't find a solution

I tried to post my question in DSC developer thread, but wasn't allowed to.

Hope you can help me. Thanks!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deysmacro:
try using fastergps ... and select your appropriate region... maybe the pool server is mismatched... once you have setup the pool server for your region.. use gps test ... and see if the satellite getting stable or not.. usually it takes bout 2 3 minutes to stabilize itself... once you see a steady feet number... you can use your navigation software back..
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] _n0p_:
Yes, I remember this reported.

Most probably it's not related to ROM version, but to some error in system gps module.

I personally experienced this once (reboot helped), but logs gave me no information.

All I figured that time - my system was low on mem and maybe gps lib has mem allocation errors. But this is only a guess.

I use GPS on daily basic, but also reboot device too frequently to be a trusted source for this case, sorry.

Also, just in case -

would you run

su

getprop | grep -c ""

in terminal emulator

and tell the number it'll show?
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ppls:
Thank you for your help, I think I have nailed it down!

First I have set my area in fastergps, then I started gps test. It showed the same on/on/on/off problem as before.

Checked available space: 1.1 Gb internal memory, 3.2 Gb sd card.

Then I ran terminal emulator:

broken gps: 224

right after reboot: 220

after running gps tester: 222

after running navigon, locus, google maps: 222

after some minutes of playing around, it was broken again: 222

right after next reboot: 204

after playing around (gps still working): 220

broken again: 220

Then I thought about all installed apps which are accessing gps. There I think was the problem. The app "Regen Alarm OSM Plus" has the option to get the position via gps or via network. Since I deactivated the gps option, I didn't have any problems till now. For verifying that thought, i reactivated the gps option in that app, with the result of immediately having broken gps again. So most likely this was the cause.

Thanks for your help!
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] deysmacro:
nice.. if anything similar happen again.. we would ask them to check this thread :)
[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] trunks10k:
I've had a similar problem but it was when I installed 3D chainfire. When I install the driver it would remove the navigation app that comes stock with google maps. But there was a work around to this by going through google maps and clicking on the arrow icon to navigate but then the GPS icon doesn't appear and the bottom it seems to be locating GPS signal as it says, "GPS locating..." and continues for a while unless i have wifi or use my 3G thats the only way the location can be shown but its not constant as in the dot doesn't really move but refreshes with the signal. didn't really know how to fix this so I took off 3d chainfire
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nicregi:
Hi all!

Need some help here. Finally got the title right. Now here's my issue:

1. Different ROMs and kernels

2. Flash back stock ROM and kernels

3. Wipe everything using CWM and through the phone setting

4. Wipe cache and dalvik but not use clear data on CWM

The problem happens whenever I am flashing over stock (or anything close to stock) ICS. JB and GB roms have no problem but only ICS. So, what is wrong guys?

I am running out of ideas so please help. (p/s I did try to search here and Google but can't find an answer :( )

i really think its fake, what you guys think about it?

i need to say i havent bought nor test it.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DiKeJ:
My opinion - fake or emulate only PS1 games...But didn't test it too.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] acocalypso:
i also found that one.

http://android.cyber-flasher.com/ps2-emulator-v1-3-by-cyber-flasher.html

it is an ps2 emulator, id downloaded it, after installing it tells me to download adobe air, ok fine so far. now ill try it out tell you what happens.

But i dont have any high hopes that this isnt a fake too
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] DiKeJ:
I heard about it, and it's 100% fake (that v1.3 sh*t). And that payed PSP/PS2/PS1 emulator is too cheap to buy it only for test....It's not worth it. Every emulator by this company was updated/created 19th of September, so don't count on it much....
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] acocalypso:
ok, but i will give the second one a shot.

So i have a LG smart TV and of course GS3. Now i know DLNA will let u stream ur offline content to ur tv but how about streaming ur entire phone on TV. I mean if i could play netflix or some other movie app on my phone and stream it wirelessly on my TV. Is it possible?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ingenious247:
Unfortunately, no. But you can stream Netflix ON your tv lol

I do feel you though.. I've wanted to stream my Google Play movies wirelessly.. not possible without the Nexus 7 I believe
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] otariq:
Nexus 7 or that nexus q thing
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ingenious247:
Yeah actually I meant the Q
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Yatyas:
Actually I have a LG 7600 and I am able to stream recorded videos (or movies I have uploaded from my pc) to my TV using the default video app and pictures using gallery through wifi direct and the wireless display feature on the LG. It is limited to those 2 apps as far as I know though. Is that similar to what you wanted to do?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pradyots:
For now i will just have to stick to my microusb to hdmi cable to do it...

I have 7600 too and i do that too but i am not talking about downloaded movies i am talking about streming over ur phone and sending it wirelessly to the TV
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Yatyas:
I am streaming wirelessly. I connect the 2 via wifi direct then on my phone I open a video in the stock video player once it starts playing there is an icon at the top left to connect to wireless display and I click it and it automatically displays on my TV but is being played on my phone. I am not using a video player on my tv at all.

I know you can't do it with Netflix this way or Crackle but if you rent/buy a movie from the play store you can stream it wirelessly to you tv.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ingenious247:
No you can't.. because the Google Play movies won't play on the stock video player.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pradyots:
Can you do the same for netflix?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Yatyas:
Then I stand corrected on that... you can stream whatever will play in the stock video player wirelessly to the tv
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ingenious247:
Yes, that is correct. However most of us don't want to take up our entire SD storage space to have a couple of movies we can stream

That Nexus Q is looking more and more enticing lol
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Yatyas:
I am actually using Windows media center as my DVR and in conjunction with Remote Potato I can stream any movies or recordings (broadcast flag permitting) across local network or internet and play them through the stock video player which I am then able to stream to a TV that has wireless display capabilities. So I typically do not keep movies on my SD card.

Just for the record you can use Remote Potato with out using media center and be able to stream whatever content you have on your PC to your phone. Works very well.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] speedbreaker:
you can stream anything you want even slingplayer using the allshare cast dongle! its a really nice piece of tech to own!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Orical:

You can wireless mirror your phones displays to your TV using the All-Share Cast Hub. It supports 1080p video output too.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] battlekry:
I believe Samsung said that their 2012 Smart Tv's will for sure be able to use All share cast without the hub... I have a Series 6 2012 Samsung Smart Tv... That is what I am waiting on...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] redhooka:
Did you read the manual that came with the tv?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Yatyas:
Go into the menu settings for the TV and you will find an option for enabling wireless display, turn it on. After that is on, connect the two devices via wifi direct (you will need to make sure wifi direct is on on the tv and your phone. I usually initiate the connection from the TV). Once they are connected play any video in the stock player and you will see an icon that resembles a monitor with a number 1 in it. If you press that the video should start playing on your TV no matter what input it is on.

I believe I have actually got this to work just being on the same network but wifi direct should be more reliable. I will double check when I get home to see if it works without wifi direct
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] pradyots:
Like u said "stock player", how about netflix streaming on phone thrown wirelessly on TV? Although i have netflix app on my tv but i still wanna figure this $hit out
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] battlekry:
Red I did not read the manual but Samsung states that this mirroring feature will work with their Smart Tv's once an update is released... All other tv's would require the allshare cast hub...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] redhooka:
Well then read the manual for the instructions.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Pollie12:

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TSKXDA:
I have GS3 i9300 International version.

My EFS partition has been corrupted.

I already have the backup available i took with EFS backup pro but when i now connect through it it doesn't pick it up even though i have put it in the same directory.

I also tried to backup the existing EFS folder (Which doesn't have anything in it) using Root Explorer in Phone but got an error 'Can't locate Mount Point!"

How can i restore my EFS folder again? Any suggestion will be helpful as i have been trying to read all what is available at XDA.

There is no IMEI and baseband available. I had the stocked firmware when this happened with CF root and Siyak Kernel.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TSKXDA:
I have checked in CWM Recovery mode.

All partitions are mounted except EFS and i am not able to mount it even in recovery.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TSKXDA:
So after like 24 hrs, i am finally able to restore everything back to normal :).

Since the efs partition was not mounting, i used the following commands to do so manually in terminal

mke2fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p3
mount -w -t ext4 /dev/block/mmcblk0p3 /efs

The link that helped me realize this was

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1857811

After running this command i had signals and Wifi begins working but IMEI was turned to generic.

Then i turned to EFS bakup pro and this time successfully restored my efs folder and getting my origional IMEI back.

So all this taught me that flashing and tinkering with your android phone carries a huge risk and we should all be prepared to face such issues if decided to do so.

But really, what's the fun if we don't ;).

Following are some issues that i faced during this whole process which i am sharing if anybody else gets in the same situations

- The first thing i did was to flash the stock firmware but this lead to an unrooted phone again

- I used CF root to gain root privileges again but supersu was asking for binary updates before giving root permission to other programs.

- So i downloaded SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 TOOLKIT which is an excellent resource for everything related to rooting, flashing and backing up GS3.

- I rooted with busybox so that EFS backup pro can be used.

- Since my GS3 was not having mobile or wifi signal, this toolkit helped a great deal.

- One small thing that i missed was place my EFS back in a folder named "EFSProBackup" which is to be placed in the same directory as the executable of EFS Pro so that it can recognize it in restoration tab.

I hope this will be helpful if anyone gets stuck in this issue.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TSKXDA:
Download EFS Pro from here EFS Pro.

Connect your phone with pc via USB and make sure you are not using USB Mass Storage mode.

Start EFS Pro. Obviously, you need to be rooted and have busybox installed for this application to run.

Your phone information will be displayed once it's connected.

Create a backup of your EFS Folder either with a .img or .tar extension.

And keep flashing hassle free :).
