[Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tobdaryl:
Before you consider updating to JB read this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1894867 about NvFlash. If you are already JB then it is to late for that thread.

I have not noticed the problems you mention but have not had any of the other devices you mention, so I can't make the same judgements as you.

If you look carefully you will learn that a large majority of the problems stem from not thoroughly reading the OP or not following the directions accurately.

This is my second android, the other is a NookTablet. I've had this unit two weeks today. Day one within thirty minutes I was rooted. Day two unlocked and on JB-Hydro. I am pleased but would like NvFlash as a safety net but it was to late by the time it became available.

Choose two or three threads on rooting (read carefully, do you understand?, if yes read some of the posted problems and determine if this was a problem with the thread or a problem with understanding) you see we see things differently as we read.

If you still want someone to suggest something we will be happy to look through and make a personal choice.

Good Luck!:good:

You can root without unlocking! If you unlock you have given up your warranty. Rooting alone on this device does not provide as much as some others. Permissions regulated in the system still hinder when rooted. Unlocking provides ability to flash custom recoveries (twerp is the choice here, cwm appears to have some issues at this time). Custom recoveries let you backup stock and custom roms and switch between them if they use the same bootloader (ICS or JB). At this time once you JB you can't go back to ICS or so I keep reading!!!

I don't regret it

this is my first tablet, and I don't have any phones

but I agree with the prior response

if you read the relevant threads and follow instructions, no issues at all

I've had my tablet a couple of months and I'm on JB Hydro 4.1

it's like a completely different tablet

just some other thoughts, it seems a lot of the people having issues don't seem to understand what they are doing

if you've rooted and rom'ed that many phones I'd think you should have a leg up on understanding what's going on

Hi,

I've tried looking, but I can't seem to find an answer, so I thought I would come to experts....Is there any way I can launch an app by dialing a number? For example I dial 1 hit send and Google Now launches its prompt.

Thanks very much.

My wife is having issues with her data connection on her phone-

The phone aspect of the Captivate Glide works fine, but there are times where she is trying to us data (to check emails..etc..) and phone states she does not have a data connection. Also, her 4g icon disappears from the screen. Only solution (which she completely hates) is restarting the phone. Have had several android phones, but this is a first for me-

Currently running OsiMood.0122.RUXKJ5 Android 2.3.5
[Samsung Captivate Glide] telegraph0000:
different ROM, same issue

so i updated my wife's phone to thegreatergood's literom (version .6), and I'm still having issues with the phone sporadically losing it's data connection. my wife is still able to make phone calls, however, all texting and data remains off. I have to restart the phone in order to restore data/text...any ideas?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dudejb:
I have seen this as well once or twice in the past as well. I am also on the greater good's literom 6 and liteKernel v4. Rebooting does fix it. Not sure what is causing it as well. I think it happened when I had low reception then all of sudden no reception all together. Wonder if you have no reception for too long can trigger this? Rebooted and wen back to having low reception but at least some. My work has a lot of interference so I rarely get good reception at my desk, often I see the E sign for edge network and when I see that I know it is going to be Dog slow.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] napkun:
Hey guys so this is what is going on. I'm currently on an AT&T family plan with separate data plans. My sister just upgraded to the GS3 with a new sim card and everything but she doesn't really like it so she's going back to her 4S and offered to sell the phone to me. I'm currently using an iPhone 4S with the 15$/200mb data plan. My question is can I use my current sim card and data plan with the GS3 or do I have to upgrade it the 4G LTE plan and get a new sim card as well?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] d3athsd00r:
You should just be able to pop your card in and enjoy the S3 goodness. However, you may want to get att to switch your plan from in iphone plan to the general smart phone plan, because some weird things can happen with your voice mail if you don't. Happened to me when I switched from iphone to android.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] napkun:
Thanks for the quick reply :). I was wondering because I was told that AT&T forces you to use a 4G LTE plan for this phone. I'm usually around a wifi connection so I'm looking for the cheapest data plan that is available at the moment
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cdjaney:
The problem you're probably going to run into is the S3 uses a micro SIM....so you may, at the very least, have to cut your SIM down. Just fyi.

I came from a galaxy S2, and had to get a new SIM.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MeVirtually:
The 4S already has a micro SIM, though, doesn't it? I had to get the micro SIM since I switched from the captivate, and I still have my $15/200MB plan and get LTE on it when I'm not using Wi-Fi.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] napkun:
Yes the 4S has the micro sim also. I was able to use call features and text with it in the SG3 but no network access except for wifi. Ended up calling AT&T and turns out I'll have to upgrade to the 20$/300mb 4G LTE data plan.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] MeVirtually:
Most likely you need a new SIM that's 4G LTE capable, since I just remembered the 4S isn't. I'm getting 4G LTE on the $15 plan - it's not the plan.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] deathdread:
That's interesting. I recently moved from an iPhone 3GS (it was a free hand-me-down, don't give me that look) to a One X which I returned (battery life) and got a SGS3 within 30 days. I still have a $15/200MB data plan and both phones worked fine on 4G LTE data. You may wish to confront them about this, because it sounds like they're gonna get you for $120 on that new plan otherwise.

EDIT:

I should note that I got a new SIM with the One X (and then it migrated to my SGS3) as the 3GS had some fat old huge SIM card. I have no idea if there's 4G LTE incompatible SIMs or not, but I thought I'd add that after seeing MeVirtually's post.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] napkun:
I'm still waiting for my sister to come home so we can make the switch with AT&T over the phone, I'll ask them about preserving my 15$/200mb plan
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
been looking into trying either AOKP or Paranoid Android.. could you fine folks please tell me how the AOSP camera compares to the TouchWiz cam? i've heard that the AOSP cam is nowhere near as good as the TW cam software. what features aren't in the AOSP one? thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Neverendingxsin:
My dad and I took side by side pictures of that exact same thing and the pictures looked exactly the same.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
good to know. as far as features though.. like burst shot, panorama, take a photo while in video, save to external SD... are all those in AOSP as well? thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] hesh.monster:
This is the only time I will EVER say something from touchwiz is better. AOSP camera does not have near as many features as the touchwiz counterpart. Don't get me wrong it can still take normal shots just fine but everything else touchwiz has the edge.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:
what features are missing?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
touchwiz camera is by far better....aosp is still good just sayin.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] radiohead14:

You're making me extremely hungry, lol. Landscape pics look good too.

I agree that the TW cam has more features though.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Nephilumos:
Hello All,

As you can see I'm new here (Well, new to posting, I lurk quite a bit), but after tinkering around with a few JB ROMs, and experiencing this issue myself, I just wanted to share with you something I've used to stave off the "SOD after a full night's charge" issue I've seen a few people mention.

As stated in the thread title, this requires Tasker. This also requires Secure Settings. Both available in the Play Store.

I've created a very basic profile that wakes the CPU up every 2 minutes while connected to an AC power source. This has seemed to prevent SOD for me when waking up in the morning.

Context: Power -> AC

Time: Repeat 2 minutes

Task: Plugin -> Secure Settings -> Wake Device -> "CPU Awake Only" for "5 Seconds"

The reasons behind why I'm doing this:

1. Perhaps the phone is going into deep sleep? Maybe preventing the phone from doing this will prevent SOD.

2. My battery was dying very quickly. So I figured that perhaps after the phone completed charge was when the SOD started. Perhaps this prevented my phone from reading that it was still connected to the AC and allowed the battery to drain while showing 100% charge.

3. Well, why not? I couldn't find anything else to remedy this, might as well try something of my own.

Now, for context, my knowledge of Android is superficial and I know just enough to get myself out of a sticky situation, so my findings may be completely baseless/lucky. Please let me know if I'm incorrect in any of my assumptions or if this is working for you, I'm well aware I'm a noob so there's no need to point it out further :D
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] playya:
What rom are you running if AOSP why not just check off stay awake while charging? It actually gives me a better charge for my battery and been using it since back in my Evo days

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] erica_renee:
all otg cables should be the same

All a otg cables have the same layout. If they are Build correctly they will work..

The Only difference in otg and data/ charge cable is pin number 4 and 5 on the cable.. Pin 4 and 5 are grounded together. This tells the device to put itself in storage mode.It also shuts off charging as it cant send power in and out on the same wires.

So any otg cable you but Will work if its made correctly.

this being fits securely with a good plug on the micro end and a good socket on the a usb end.. and of course made correctly shielded .

HI all,

I'm somewhat new here -- been lurking a while, and have recently started posting. Anyways, I recently hit the marketplace with a free app I've developed, ScoreKeeper Plus: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bammsoft.scorekeeper

In a nutshell, it's a score keeping app, tailored towards board games and the likes, with many uses. Additionally, I've included a few useful utilities for such events -- a highly configurable dice roller and a game timer.

So far, I've received perfect reviews from my modest user-base (~20 users), but I'm looking to grow that and get some feedback to further development.

The app is free and has no ads, so please share with all who may find this useful!

All feedback is HIGHLY appreciated. :fingers-crossed:

- Shane
[Android Apps and Games] kenyw:
Why does the app need permission to read contact data on the phone?

The description says why internet access is needed, but the combination of that and reading contact data for an app that doesn't seem to obviously need the phonebook could look suspicious.
[Android Apps and Games] dstruct2k:
See screenshot attached.
[Android Apps and Games] sjb933:
Hi sorry, I missed this question. Thanks to the poster above, yes it's to pick player names from your contact list.

The network permission is to pull a message of the day when you first launch the app. The MOTD let's me communicate with my users. It pulls from here: http://android.bammsoft.com/ScoreKeeper/MOTD.txt :)

On a side note, I'm quite pleased because there's been an explosion of new users, a 700% increase in the past 2 days!

Attempted to root my phone today, needed to install CWM, and followed the guide here:

androidauthority.com/galaxy-s2-i777-att-root-clockworkmod-recovery-76868/

Unfortunately, the files they linked to are no good; when I try to boot the phone, it now says GT 19100 under the Galaxy S2 logo, there's a yield sign with an exclamation point in the bottom, and in Odin my phone it shows Epic 4G in the top bar. This leads me to believe I've flashed my phone with the Sprint version of CWM. So far, I've tried flashing the kernel from creepycrawly's download repository, which hasn't worked, and I've downloaded the full .exe of the Stock Binaries; when I click it, my phone doesn't show up. Please help!

super wipe?
[HTC Sensation] Skipjacks:
You can superwipe when going to an Sense ROM, though it's probably not needed. Don't ever superwipe when coming from Sense and going to AOSP though.

You can use 4EXT to do a full wipe (everything but SD card) and just install ARHD.

You don't have to change firmware or radio. Just flash the ROM and you'll be good.

After rooted NSTG, I installed Perfect Viewer 19010 and weird problem showed up. The bookshelf could not remeber those catalogs after I scaned manga on SD card, and personal configuration I made couldnt maintain after I rebooted NSTG.

Then I uninstalled PV and re-install it again, this time my personal configuration could be kept but the bookshelf still didnt remember catalog from SD card. The problem is like PV scan SD card and show catalog on SD card at first, but it disappear after I click in one manga then go back to bookshelf.
