[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] elephant007:
After typing this I realized I did a play-by-play of his review

Is the main complaint he has about this phone really a complaint? I mean he bought the phone knowing that there's no 4G LTE in his area, so how can it be a complaint if he knew this from the get-go? I bought this phone knowing that there isn't 4G LTE in my area so I, for one, don't complain about it.

I also like the build of the phone, I will agree though it does feel slick at times, like it will slip out of your hands like a wet soap bar! I too put a rubberized case on my phone to give it some more grip.

I agree with BWFBezerk, it's not a WiFI bug it's (ah hem, to say it like Apple).. it's a feature... this feature can be turned off without a problem, I disabled it on my phone...

12 to 15 hours battery life with heavy use, SWEET! I don't know what is considered heavy or light use, I use my phone about the whole time I'm at work from 8-5 and when I come home my battery is at 75%, I'm running Sonic FreeS3 0.1.1 and I must admit the battery life is insanely great.. I'm guessing his is stock ROM... I thought he said the battery life is definite "NO" not "GO" haha, my bad

SuperAMOLED is, in my opinion, the best screen ever... this is why I continue to get Samsung phones... from the Samsung Moment, to the Samsung Galaxy S II and now the Samsung Galaxy S III

As far as the speakers go, man I wish we had a front facing speaker for when viewing videos on the phone..

His case is sweet looking, my case has a kickstand on it too and it allows me to prop it up landscape and portrait

I'll have to agree with him, I really like the TouchWiz on this phone too... even thought I have a custom ROM on it, I only have that ROM on because it keeps the phone as stock as possible. One thing I didn't like about the stock TouchWiz though is the fact that the quicksetting automatically scrolled to the right.

Use the power button to get the recently used apps? Did he miss identify the button?

You know that 2 is more than 1, man I like this guy, he's doing a great review... I like how it's raw and uncut... real world as he says... no LINPack and all that...

I might have to hack my home button, I never use S-Voice anyway..

Direct Call is a definite GO!

Tap to Top, thanks for the explanation!

I can never get my screenshot to work swiping my palm from right to left, I can only get it to work from left to right... haha

I use Task Manager daily

This is a really good review, thanks for posting the link!

He has all the iPhones, I don't know if he'll review the iPhone 5. He said it's still too small for him. He only reviews phones he buys himself. Nobody sending the phones to him to review or anything. Check out the review he did for the iPhone 4s. There's 3 parts to that video.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] kdm212:
first, sorry if im posting in the wrong area. also, im sorry if there has been a solution and i missed it. i did search. i used to have the 727 skyrocket and moved on from it for another device. however, while using it i had 3g with tmobile using i think it was the blaze radio. any chance of doing this with the att version s3? looks like the bands are the same. i found a great deal on a s3 and want to pull the trigger but i dont want to be stuck on edge with tmobile. im pretty sure 1900 has not been refarmed up here in the boston area yet.

thanks for your help in advance.

Looks like it's legit and seems like a good price. Hell, at that price I'd get it to replace an old DS or PSP

Link removed to comply with XDA rules but its not too hard to find and theres a screenshot.
[Xperia Play General] - Swift -:
Good price but eBay links aren't tolerated on XDA. If you want, I recommend you put a screenshot of the listing instead of the link.

Thanks:)
[Xperia Play General] mejorguille:
I had no idea ebay links weren't allowed lol. Fixed.
[Xperia Play General] - Swift -:
No problem. Its rule #2 of the Marketplace rules if you want to read it more. ;)

please tell me the way ...how to get four corner launcher like sony ericsson xperia mini pro for lg p500..
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Syd_M:
This is probably what you're looking for. I found it a while back and it works fine on my O1. I think it force closes on stock Gingerbread, though, but it seems to be OK for CM7 based ROMs. Link below:

SE_Active_launcher.apk - 825.30 KB
[Optimus One, P500, V General] ankursachdeva:
it works on my p500......oxygen 2.3.2 rom

but when i m going to add any thing like widget then it force close.,.,.,.,.,

tell me any solution .,,.,.,
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Syd_M:
Well, it looks like what I heard about it force closing on stock GB is true, then. I'm running neko's Ginger Snap 2.1 rom, which is CM7.2 based, and I have no problems adding widgets. Oxygen is an AOSP rom, iirc. Someone may need to port this properly to run on AOSP roms, which I'm afraid I'm not skilled enough to do. :(
[Optimus One, P500, V General] DarkCoding:
Try to install as Systemapp. Download a Root Explorer and give root access. Browse to /system/app and copy the file to that path, set permissions to rwx-rwx-rwx and reboot.
[Optimus One, P500, V General] Syd_M:
You could try giving this version a try: Xperia_Active_Launcher.apk - 724.62 KB

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micks_address:
hi folks,

this happens both my nexus 7 and galaxy nexus from time to time. While connected to my home wifi they will loose internet connection. They are still connected to my router as i can ping devices on the network. I have to disconnect and reconnect to get net access back again. Im using WPA2 Personal encryption on the routher with tkip/aes

Anyone else experience anything simillar? I have no issues on my work wifi.. it stays connected all the time

Cheers,

Mick
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] enegizer07:
I'm curious about this too. Been having the same problem. I've tried two different routers even went back to stock. I use shout cast on winamp when I sleep. Wakes me up when the music stops.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micks_address:
seems like there are plenty of users experiencing the same issue

http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=35496

Its frustrating as my 7 and Galaxy Nexus are solid as a rock on wifi at work.. both experience the issues at home. I'll try boosting the power output as suggested here tonight and see how it goes

Comment 31 by lamyjeanfrancois, Aug 16, 2012

Changing home router to a wrt-based asus rt-n66u and boosting the output power to the maximum US allowed value of 100mW fixed it for me. Other devices were working fine, even lowly archos 28 mini tablets. It seems that jb is misinterpreting signal strength.

I dont want to run a static IP.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micks_address:
Some testing last night, i upped the output power on my ddwrt router - that didnt stop the issue from happening. Then i went with a static IP. This seemed more stable but i still lost connectivety at one point, only for it to return on its own - before i would have had to connect/disconnect from the access point to restore internet. More testing tonight.. its very frustrating! I dont think its a hardware issue as its happening with both the Galaxy Nexus and Nexus 7. Anyone else having simillar issues?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vinny86:
Same here

I Experience the same, happens almost every hour or so.

All my other wi fi devices have no problems, just nexus 7
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rycon33:
Hehehe it seems many of us having wifi range issue. I checked my wifi signal strength thru wifi analyzer app and it seems wifi is solid if only I always have more than -40dBm strength. Which means I needed to be always closer to the router, can't make it when I'm already at my room. Quite annoying but I guess I had to send it to service center.

Tapatalked from my Ace 2
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jakeellis01:
Same problem here....

Weird thing is I have 2 routers connected to each other (dhcp off on second one), having same problem on both routers. I thought it was the internet connection as my HTC Desire does the same thing.

I also tested the nexus 7 wifi with my 3g Desire via hotspot.... and no issues at all for 3 hours+.

So i'm pretty sure its not a nexus issue, unless there are some compatability issues from my nexus to the router.

Ideas anyone?
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] micks_address:
using static IP at home seems to be stable.. cant understand what different though between work and home that it works fine in the office.. must be a config parameter on my access point at home
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msucoleman:
Verizon Toro cdma

I I think I know what is wrong, but can't figure out exactly how to get it fixed. I crushed my screen this weekend on my GN. So I found a decent one on Craigs. Guy had it rooted/unlocked/JB. I'm not sure what bootloader he had on it and I know for a face that it did not have the latest JB Radios.

I basically want to wipe this thing and get a stock JB back on it and then put my backed up JB rom that I have in clockwork. I can not get it to recover to this backup, but I can get it to restore back to my ICS backup. I have been trying to use wugtoolkit and have successfully got CWM touch put on, but as far as roms, I'm stuck.

I can't even flash back to stock rom in Wug??

Every time I do a factory wipe, etc in CWR it will not boot.

I went to factory images on google and didn't see a 4.1.1?? I thought they came out with it?

Any help would be appreciated.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
1) stop using a toolkit.

2) there are no factory images from google for JB for the vzw nexus up yet.

3) follow this guide to the return to stock and then get the OTA to JB: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1626895
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msucoleman:
I will look into it.

Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msucoleman:
I tried that way, but commandline fails to find fastboot. I can flash the stock image through toolkit (yeah I know you said not to, but it is the only thing that works) yet it will never boot afterwards. Also the radios fail to install.

I just understand why my backup will not install. I keep getting error while restoreing /system
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
did you follow the steps exactly?

doesnt sound like you did.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msucoleman:
Yep, opened up my command line, cd to the directory where the files were unzipped with 7-zip. Typed in fastboot and it says it doesn't understand that command. Using Win7.

I don't understand the toolkit, and I understand the other way you pointed to helps you learn. Still doesn't explain why it is stuck at boot (google) and why my restore/backup doesn't work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
you dont have the fastboot.exe downloaded in that same folder.

EDIT: fastboot allows you to delete the /system parition and reload it with the stock images.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Zepius:
uh you should not be using yakju. you need to be using mysid (thats the verizon version)

you could seriously screw up your phone if you use the GSM one (yakju)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msucoleman:
got it and thanks again for pointing to that way. I see where my mistake was. I didn't download the toolkit with the other files.

Hmm, for some reason the radios did not work. Moving my .zip ones over now and will flash them. Hopefully will be back up and running full after a hour.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Petrovski80:
You might want to slow down a bit and do some reading first. 30 minutes of reading a few sticky'd posts can save you a lot of trouble. Read, understand, then flash (not the other way around). A good starting point is efrant's 101 & FAQ post. ;)
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msucoleman:
Whoops. :( Flashing the correct one now.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] msucoleman:
You are correct on the slowing down part. I'm now back to where I need to be as far as starting out. I just missed that part on which file. I was thinking I could go straight to Jb, But i understand how to get there from here. That is the first time I have used fastboot and it was pretty easy.

Please just read the first few topics here.

and you will get your answers.

And, no, there is no application to make it work properly.
[LG Optimus Black] IceCreamBruno:
There are some new roms today that are based on official and unofficial CM10 that the camera works almost good. Just lags a bit on video recording and the quality is not great. Or u can try a test rom based on the Korean ICS of KU5900.

Check the development section and you will find it.

I hope i've helped you :)
