[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayc1980:
I'm sure I have read a thread where someone got it replaced at car phone warehouse for £80ish, not sure how true that is as it does seem very cheap for the job. Worst you can do is ring them and ask for a quote and them tell you this ain't true.

I have insurance which would cost me £25 excess through my bank so not really looked into costs of getting things replaced, but I have taken apart a lot of phones in the past and they are getting much harder to replace things like glass on its own. As said above it would have to have digitizer, which is pretty costly to purchase.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mr_Maz:
you can buy the unit for £150 and follow a youtube video on how to replace, or pay between £175-£225 for a full repair.

I took mine to a Samsung repair centre on a Saturday and had it fixed within 30min, paid £215 but just wanted it done.

The glass and the digiizer are glued together so the whole unit would have to be changed.

Samsung galaxy S4 Front Glass Repair in UK

Hi

If the screen still functions and the touch is working properly you can just change the glass face but you will have to be real careful as doing it yourself without the right equipment is risky and you can end up without a screen working at all. the whole screen that is currently on the phone will be completely sealed to the phone so it is a slow process to remove it and you can end up pulling the digitizer off the lcd and again this is not fixable if this happens.

also the finish will not be as good as the original without the right type of liquid glue to go back between the glass and digitizer.

at the end of the day you are better off sending it to someone who does it a lot and has all of the gear to do it, as you will get a better finish at the end.

so the power button stopped working.......

currently the phone is on so i can use it. n i have remapped the g button to wake up the phone. but what if the phone gets switched off?

i have searched around some things to try to power on the phone....

but unfortunately, i cant test them as they might not work and i would not have a way to power on the phone.

from driod 2 section : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=15936117&postcount=1

so any body can try these and check or tell me a way to power on the phone?

Put pressure on the right corner with your thumb to (un)lock your phone. Works for me.

LG power button

hello wessy,

as you mentioned i pressured the right corner and it worked, did you find the real problem back of this?

how should we solve this problem?

thanks for your great refer
[LG Optimus Black] wessyh0:
I brought it back to the service center. The putting pressure method only works for a small time and is unreliable. Eventually my entire powerbutton stopped working and I couldn't charge my phone anymore. I suggest you bring your phone to a service center before it gets worse.
[LG Optimus Black] yaz87:
Guys,

I have the same problem and I ended up opening my phone to see what is going on.

Basically, there is a bus (a group of cables) that comes from the power button, usb port and ear speaker and is connected to the motherboard exactly in the area where you apply the pressure, more or less around the LG logo.

The connection of this bus is done using a 14 pin dual inline package.

What happened in my phone, I assume it is the same in yours, the base on the motherboard where this bus is connected got disconnected, it lost the solder around the pins and the connection it has with the board is loose.

I will try to provide a picture the next time I open my phone..

When you apply pressure, what happens is that you fix the connection so the button works.

In my case, the whole base got disconnected and there is no way to solder it back manually because it is surface mount and it is extremely tiny, you can barely see it with bare eyes, but it might be done using a microscope although I doubt it due to the crowding of the components in that area.

What I did was to put some papers behind it to increase the pressure, but it was a temporary solution.

At the moment, the button works only with pressure, I cannot use the ear speaker (it is dead), and the usb port only supports charging and no data transfer.

I do not know why LG uses such low quality components.. but what can I say?

Be careful guys, it might get worse with time, make sure you do not let ur phones fall or receive hits.

Good luck!
[LG Optimus Black] 3.1416:
I have the same problem, usb connector and speaker is ok, both are in the same cable flex with the power button,

the only way to power up without the button that i found is:

1.-remove the battery

2.-press and hold volume + and connect usb to charger or pc (the software update screen is displayed)

3.- insert battery, then disconnect usb (the software update still show up)

4.-here you need to be quick, remove and insert the battery quickly

after that's the phone restarts.
[Android Apps and Games] Greegoor:
Hi there,

just wanted to get some feedback on my app. It is actually more a helper than an app, but anyway I think here on XDA I have the best chance of finding people who might have a use for it.

So if you are sometimes annoyed by short-URL's on your phone then take a look at my app, otherwise just walk away :)

What it does is that when you click on a short-URL (or on a link in Facebook), it gets the destination of that URL and directly sends you to the corresponding app. E.g.: When you are in your Twitter-app and click on a short-URL that links to a YouTube video what would normally happen is that your browser opens up and resolves the short-URL after which the browser would open up the YouTube app. With NoDetour the browser step is skipped. I know, not a big revolution, but for those of us with limited performance not unhandy.

Enough talk, here it is:

play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.furfm.nodetour

I will check this thread from time to time, so feedback is always appreciated!

So I bought a Velocity Cruz T410 because it was cheap and did what I needed at the time. But now that I don't really need it for work, I want to do more with it.

Does anybody know how I could go about creating/finding a custom ROM for it? I've spent the last week or so searching Google and other forums for this information but I haven't found anything yet.

Velocity Micro Customer Service has told me that this device is capable of running ICS but they aren't planning on updating it that far. I'd really like to try developing ROMs and such for this device but don't really know where to start.

Velocity Cruz Custom ROM

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi!

I have the T408 and has been checking the Internet for about two months for a custom ROM. Please let me know if you do find a custom ROM for your device & I'll do the same for you if I find one for mine as I believe the software would work for both.

Now, let me tell you what I learned so far:

Rooting the device is the first step you have to do.If you haven't done it, check what rooting means at this link (I'm not allowed to post the full links as I'm new to the website)

info.org/root.html

To root the Cruz,check these links: androidforums.com/velocity-micro-cruz-tablet-t408/439932-easy-way-root-velocity-cruz-tablet-t408.html

& youtube.com/watch?v=8envovRmNCw

I used the 2nd one with success & installed the recommended apps.

To install the Android market, check these links: senk9.wordpress.com/2010/12/03/how-to-install-google-apps-gapps-on-your-android-device-phone/

& youtube.com/watch?v=JM_D1YwGtbk

Hope this helps. Don't forget to tell me if you find the Custom ROM!.

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] LEGOracer69:
Hi. I want A tablet and I was thinking to wait for tegra 4, but finally I think I will buy tegra 3 device. And here comes my question.

1. Which of transformers has the best performance? (There are severall Tegra 3 chipsets)

2. Is FULL-HD version worst performance? (I mean it has to proces more graphics or there is no change)

3. Which version is the most supported.

What are the other difference and what do you recomannd
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] flumpster:
It depends on what you want it for really.

I own both the prime 201 with dock and the nexus 7.

If you want the dock then I'd suggest waiting for the t700 which will have none of the wifi/gps problems that the 201 has and shouldn't have the IO problem either.

If you don't need the dock and don't mind the 7 inch screen then I would get a nexus 7 because it is the same power but for a third of the price.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] craigacgomez:
Go for the TF700 or the TF300... the major differences are that Asus fixed some of the common kinks people faced with the TF201... performance-wise (other than maybe I/O), the devices are generally on par... the TF201 & TF700 have IPS+ panels, the TF300 has an IPS panel.... IPS+ means higher brightness (good for outdoors).... I don't believe the FHD display in the TF700 will make a big difference... but there will be some difference... the Nexus 7 is also similar, but smaller screen size and easier to mod without worrying too much about warranty...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] LEGOracer69:
Thanks. I think I will buy TF700. It will be on top for next 4 months. It hits the IPAD 3 prize with better GPU, but it is apple so F**K OFF. I think Infinity is great choise. I can use it for next 3 years not getting bored.

Hi,

I am using Rogers Samsung Galaxy S2 LTE. Its running superheavy_CM10_JB ROM. Everything works fine the problem I have with this ROM is when I connect my phone to a bluethooth device eg GPS or my car. It connects fine but when I call people volume doesn't come through my car speaker. It comes through the phone same goes to music, but my car will mute itself if I am playing CD as if I am on call. I tried Liquid smooth rom as well same issues. Ginger bread, official ICS and CM9 satble Rom worked perfectly fine. Anyway Superheavy ROM is more stable for me compared to Liquid smooth which gave me issues like when I call someone they can't hear me and I can't hear them but minutes go up as if I am on call. I love this ROM(superheavy) except for this bluetooth issue. Any body know how to fix it? Please let me know. Thank you in advance.

I've flashed many many times but never thru Kies. Asking because my wife's S3 is stock not rooted, mine is, and today we got an update via Kies. When I check Sammobile, there's no OTA, just the stock file ~900MB. I assume that when I update her phone thru Kies it'll wipe everything that's not backed up thru Google. Is that right or will it just flash over existing keeping all apps and data?

Also if there's no OTA, I can't flash via Odin mobile to keep root, and keep all my settings. I can flash the entire rom via mobile oding keeping root but then I have to restore everything thru TB and all my other custom settings,flash other theme zips, vol mods, etc, been there it's a pain. Should I just wait for an OTA or most likely not coming. This is latest ICS I guess in prep for JB, wondering if I should just wait for JB next month.

I've heard a lot of good things about chrome so I've been considering making the switch over to it.

Fill me in what's some of the periods and cons of chrome also

Sent from my LTEVO
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Spyderekz:
you might be able to disable and or hide from the app list, but cant remove if you are stock. also the chrome browser is good, i like sharing my bookmarks. note that on stock you can share the same bookmarks, but its not as smooth. Also chrome doesnt hide the adressbar, its always there and it takes up space. so for me thats one thing that makes me switch completely. Stock will save downloads to your SDcard if you tell it to, chrome wont. basically stock gives you more options like flash, animated GIFs. chrome handles google chrome sync a lot better. also tab management is better
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] iSilens:
It all depends on which variation of the stock browser you're using. It may be just as good or even better (in terms of performance).

Are there any extra features you're looking for?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] arozer:
In my honest opinion, Dolphi Browser > all other browsers for Android.

Favorite features:

Dolphin vs. Others

Slide RIGHT for Bookmarks vs having to click Menu>Bookmarks

A button automatically appears while scrolling up to take you to the top of page vs having to scroll up personally the whole time.

Some useful Add-ons vs barely any add-ons.

Fast as HELL!

Loading bar vs no loading bar (on Chrome)

Give it a shot.

Also has synching, but so do the other ones, so I can't bring that up.

Stock would be cool and all if it didn't crash on certain web pages with latest firmware, 2.13. There was a reason I hated stock browser and switched to chrome first day on this phone but I can't remember why.

Personally, I've never had chrome crash even once that I can remember. Stock crashes everytime I go to stubhub.com.

I know what it was that I didn't like about stock now. It wouldn't ever change from mobile to full site. There's a mod I did to always go to fullsite on both chrome and stock now though so it's kinda besides the point.
