[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] krad54:
Hey guys, I just switched over to an SIII from an atrix yesterday. I just didn't realize how much of a pain in the ass it would be to transfer anything. Right now I'm on OSX Mountain Lion, on my rMBP, and so far nothing has worked to get connected. I've tried android file transfer, connecting it as a PTP device, and numerous methods of trying to get Kies up and running, but nothing has worked. The file transfer doesn't detect anything and connecting as PTP doesn't seem to do anything at all. Kies and Easy Phone Sync both detect the phone as being connected, but don't connect to it. Easy Phone Sync shows a blank screen, and Kies says that it can't connect to the device, or that the device isn't responding. I have a bootcamp partition, but it's so small that I'd like to completely avoid using it if possible.

Also, here's some info on the SIII: It's a 16gb AT&T SIII. It's been rooted, and right now the Ariel Rom is installed, so I'm on ICS.

Thanks,

Krad
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] d3athsd00r:
AFAIK Kies and android file transfer (both terrible pieces of software) don't work properly on Mountain Lion. Just go get you an 8GB or so sd card or install the Android SDK and use adb push/pull.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] krad54:
That's what I was thinking, but I just wanted to be sure. Thanks anyways.

I use the wifi file transfer app. It's easy to use.
[Thunderbolt General] trter10:
So did I. For like 3 months.

Cables would fall out, it wouldn't do the distinctive click, etc.

As you can imagine, this is an extreme pain to someone developing a tool :p

So tonight I got fed up with it and decided to fix it myself.

(note: this is for informational purposes only, not responsible if you break your phone :p)

What I did:

Partially disassemble the phone (just to separate the plastic outside from the main board and screen) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1_NG0w1WofA stop at 3:07)

Get some needle-nose pliers and bend the port itself back to its original shape, being careful not to damage the board

Reassemble

Simple!

Now everything works almost perfect and i get the click sound when i plug in the USB :highfive:

Hope this helps!
[Thunderbolt General] RBarnett09:
To think you could have saved me from spending $100. I JUST sent my old Thunderbolt back to Asurion today because of this charging port issue.

Lol.

Anyways, thanks for sharing this!! If it happens to my new one, I know what video I'll be looking for.
[Thunderbolt General] trter10:
My phone with this prob actually is an asurion replacement so you just might need this :P
[Thunderbolt General] trter10:
The best thing about this is that I can now keep my case on at all times because i don't have to keep removing and replacing the battery every day to charge :D

I honestly have no reason to get a new phone anymore :)
[Thunderbolt General] RBarnett09:
Bahahaha!! So true!

Good thing you don't need a new phone!!

The Thunderbolt community would be at a huge loss without you, and that's for sure!
[Thunderbolt General] mobitote:
My usb port has being acting weird. Or, maybe its the phone dunno. Anyways, I everytime I got an app running say audio app and I am charging the phone .. if I unplug it reboots. I have to stop the app and unplug the charger. What might be causing this?

Btw, It never reboots at any other time just on unplugging the charger.
[Thunderbolt General] trter10:
Well I spoke too soon. It still won't charge via USB port. Oh well, at least the computer connection is good!
[Thunderbolt General] craigviar:
I notice mine gets hot if charging, while listening to music, etc if using the phones speaker. Plug in to something with the 3.5 and no problemo. I suspect some of the leads for power and audio run very close together on the board.
[Thunderbolt General] HTCVzw:
After 2 trips to Lowes to get the right tools, I now have a USB that clicks again! Thanks for the info! Best part about it is that I don't have to keep checking my phone to see if it is charging now! :D
[Thunderbolt General] trter10:
Awesome glad it helped you! That click is an awesome feeling :D

Feeling fustrated about the galaxy ace lag??

Well with these simple steps your phone will be lagless.

I DO NOT TAKE ANY BLAME TO DAMAGING OF DEVICE. TAKE THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK.

FIRST install a lightweight rom such as icecream sunday final or miracle v4.

SECOND install a script. Script i use is slaidfastmod v2. Other scripts work fine too such as zippalingers script or any others. Make sure these scripts improve performance, as it will be listed in the features.

THIRD go to cyanogenmod settings and tap performance. Change the cpu governer to smartass and change minimum frequency to 122 and maximum to 864.

FOURTH reboot and enjoy your fast phone.

If u have any questions just ask.

Hit the thanks button please.

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ankur.chakroborty:
When i change max cpu speed to 864MHz, the phone restarts! I am using Miracle V4 rom. And also overclockin the cpu wont affect battery life?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Tovagulet:
If it restarts its because is just not stable to your phone.

And yes, overclocking does drain battery life
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ankur.chakroborty:

I'd rather stick to slow but safe 800MHz. Although I wish more games could be supported on my Ace. Agent Dash is very very laggy.

Messages Not Working

Hi, my Messages is not working - 'could not launch the requested activity' and 'android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly'.

The phone is amazingly fast now, and i would be glad if the messaging issue can be resolved.

I have flashed a few times.

Thank you.

Can u please say what u did step by step so i can figure out problem
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ben_online:
Downloaded Miracle V4

2. Reboot to Recovery Mode

3. Wipe Data, Wipe Cache

4. Install Miracle V4 from zip

5. Reboot

I came to understand that Miracle V4 does not have stock SMS, so I am using GoSms now, which is fine.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1583871

Question:

1.	How do I install the slaidfastmod v2 script?

2.	Any good Camera app with video? I installed IP Camera, but it seems to crash

3.	Any other tweeks that can be done to improve performance? (no that I am complaining, this is already very fast)

4.	Do I still need Terminal Emulator, BusyBox, Spare Parts?

Thank you very much for your time and assistance 
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] RawnyRom:
1. Since v2 script is a little outdated, u should use the slaidfastmod v3 script. Just search it up on google. Download script and move to sd card. Then boot into recovery mode and press install zip from sd card. And choose and install the script. Then reboot.

2. Search in "lg camera" on google play store. Very good app.

3. This differs from various roms. Check the rom thread and look for any tips and tricks. U cannot install any more scripts if u already have a script.

4. No not really. It is only useful for stock roms.:rolleyes:

[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ben_online:
Thank you so much Sir - great help!!

Just one more question on point #3 - not sure if i have a script installed - how do i check this? you mentioned i cant install more scripts if i already have one - so how do i uninstall the existing and install the slaidfastmod v3? (what do scripts do, how do they work?)

Thank you again for your kind assistance.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] PJ147:
point 4 - Er are you sure you know what these do?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] widhopoenya:
You can check it in init.d folder, whether you have another script or not.

what about using V6 supercharger.? is it recommended?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] RawnyRom:
Yes, as i said u can yse zippalingers scripts such as this one. The v6 supercharger will optimize ram usage making your phone smoother and faster.:rolleyes:
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] RawnyRom:
They basically tweak up your phone. Which is pretty useless on custom roms as it is already tweaked up.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] PJ147:
Do you understand what busybox is?

---------- Post added at 09:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:36 PM ----------

And terminal emulator for that matter?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Don't recommend that 864Mhz max frequency. You will cause a lot of bricked devices. Not everyone's can go up that high. Also, Ondemand is better for performance and battery than Smartass V2.

Also, 245Mhz min frequency is better than 122Mhz.
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] ben_online:
I have installed SlaidMod_V3 and i read somewhere that you can also use TurboBoost-V8.5-CWM together with it - so i have installed both :)

Will there any issues to have both or is it sufficient to have just either one?

Also, the how would the v6 supercharger compare/differ from the other two?
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] Frize18:
Great, thanks!:)
[Galaxy Ace S5830 General] SuperAce609:
Just flash Adrenaline engine. It will literally blow your mind. It doesn't have the placebo effect like the other scripts.

Hi guys

I am using a Rogers GS3 - rooted using odin, installed ClockworkMod Recovery.

Transferred the latest stable Cyanogenmod9 zip to the SDcard

Booted into CWMRecovery, updated using the stable C9 zip and then tried to re-boot the phone, but it just gets stuck on the CyanogenMod intro screen (the blue circle going round).

Did I miss a step. I watched a video saying I needed to clear the cache, so I pulled the battery out, booted back to CWMRecover, cleared the cache, the updated with the C9 zip and tried again, same result, boots only into the Cyan intro screen.

help pleeeease
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mrhaley30705:
Boot into recovery, factory data reset, move to mountsand storage and format system, them clear cache and dalvik cache (that one is under advanced), then reflash the cm9 zip

If you click on specs it does show nfc.

I don't think this messes up their marketing plan at all. Its like the iPhone 4 then 4s this is htcs "4s" of the one x line. Them releasing the evo lte messes up their branding more. Its an okay bump.. not worth getting if you already have the original one x.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] htc-ppc:
Really? An extra .3" went over for you? With no soft buttons the phone is probably about the same size. Bigger screen means easier to read. And I don't think they can make a 1080p screen smaller. That's 443 ppi. Way above anything else on the market. Then again no one is forcing you to get one with the bigger screen heading towards phablet. You just may have to wait until they put the same hardware in a smaller form. Then you can watch movies, play games, and surf on a smaller screen! Wait!? How is that appealing?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] aimbdd:
Uhh... Because some people want phones that actually fit in their hand / pocket well. Or want to be able to use it one handed easily. Not everyone wants bigger.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Anthonicia:
Do u find it hard to use this phone with 1 hand? The failphone5 was limited to 4" screen for the lack of usability with onehand with bigger screen.

Personally I would like to have bigger screen like note2 size, but once it is too big to fit in front pocket its a dealbreaker.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] metalfan78:
I was thinking this same thing. I thought they were moving away from this type of business model. The only upgrade on this new one seems to be more on board storage and more processing power. Come on HTC, put more of your development into updates and software, we don't need 10 variations of the same phone. Just my opinion. It seems like they are trying to up their sales, but look at Samsung, the gs3 isn't a superior phone, but it's a solid phone and the same around the world. The biggest difference? Marketing. Just like the iPhone. It sells well because of excellent marketing.

When has Sprint ever done that?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SouL Shadow:
Eh, minor upgrade over the current generation. Do you really need 64gb INTERNAL storage? 2gb ram would be a better upgrade.

As for them only releasing 1 model, well thats what this is. In the US, almost every carrier needs modifications to work on their network (especially 4g) and custimized to their demands. So in the end you get a bunch of variations of the same phone. (Btw, 4g compatibility is why the US versions ended up with the dual core snapdragon S4, instead of a quad core. Though future quad cores shouldn't have that issue.)

Finally, custom kernels for the evo lte already allow cpu clock speeds up to 2.1ghz, in addition to faster gpu and fsb clock speeds.

All in all, not a truely exciting upgrade.

Ps: i like the bigger screen sizes, however i'd like to see the next increase to the width. I mainly use portrait and would love a little extra space.

I've lurked for an hour and haven't found an actual fix.

Went through and used stock.vzw_root66.tar via Odin

Then used CWM to flash recovery and backup

Tried flashing to Liquid-JB-v2.0-RC3-d2vzw.zip with chache and data wipes.

Realized i missed the unlock boot loader (If i fix a link to unlocker app would be helpful)

Now i'm stuck at the unauthorized screen

Odin will bring up ID:COM, when flashing stock.vzw_root66.tar it pauses at SetupConnection and then ends process with Cant open Serial(COM) port.

with bionic i had R3R3L3AS3D ROOT (similar) to flash all my soft brick. anything similar to use here?

and if i get a fix. a worthy ROM will be appreciated.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BlackBytes:
Odin back to Stock (see Droidstyle's Guide it's at the bottom of the first post). Make sure to grab the correct driver and Odin version, don't use a USB3.0 port.

Root again with DebugFS (same here can be found in Driodstyle's Guide) or use the prerooted Odin.

Go to Rootswiki and grab version 1.2 of EZ-Unlock (Version 1.4 in the market is broken) and unlock your bootloader again. Get EZ Recovery from the Play Store and flash CWM.

now flash whatever ROM you like...
