I've got a general question for those of us who use Link2SD with CM9. Whenever I do a fresh flash and restore of my data from a nandroid (this includes any apps that Link2SD has moved to the sd-ext partition), everything is smooth and quick. Dialer pops up quickly, all screens are responsive.

However, after about 2 weeks to a month everything starts grinding to a slow halt. Gmail starts hanging, dialer is slow, and often double dials because I have to hit the dial button on contacts twice because I"m not sure if it took the first time (90% of the time it does, with the second dialing coming about 20 seconds after I've started talking to the person).

Link2SD reports 221 apps linked to the SD card. All apps downloaded from the market get linked. Is this way to many for this device? Do I need to cut down on my number of apps to maintain performance? How many apps are you folks running?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Arsaw:
But for saving battery purposes, I believe the tasker will not save you more juice because it's draining some power to keep updating your location. Just a thought.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BOZG:
There are more developed scripts that are linked to on the Tasker website that just scan for a few seconds periodically. You can choose how often or not it scans and for how long.

Hello, my name is Dan, i am new in this forum and i hope i will not broke any rule.

i am a new owner of galaxy s3 I9300, and i noticed a strange bug with my phone\android system.

my power saving mode have 4 options: "cpu limit", "fps limit for the screen", "color limit for mail and internet", "disable vibration".

i wont to use only 2 of them the "cpu limit" and "color limit for mail and internet", because the fps limit is pretty noticeable and i love to see my screen moving smooth.

soo let's get to the problem: when i turn on the power saving mode, everything is ok, the cpu limit working, i can see it in cpu+temp v2, and the screen option working too, and ever tying move smooth because i disabled the fps limit in power saving mode.

but when i press the the close button on the right side of the phone and re enter to the home screen, the screen move like the fps limit option is on (but it's not) i need to turn off and turn on again the battery save mode to disable again the fps limit option.

important to say that if you go to battery save mode options the fps limit is always turned off.

it's really annoying me, because every time you come back to home screen from black screen(turning off the screen with the button on the right side) you need to turn off and turn on the power save mode.

if some one can help me it will be grate.

Can't replicate the issue on mine.. maybe the firmware you are using has it, have you tried flashing another one?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dubinka:
i didn't try.

Did you turn on power save mode(with fps reduce turned off, it's the second option), then pressed the power button, and the home screen was not slow? the fps looks normal when i swipe between icons?

if you try too see the animation difference between the two state, then turn off the fps limit in power saving mode, and make the test again, and say if you had the problem.

you suggest me to flash new rom or go to the shop i bought the phone and make them fix it ?

p.s. if i record a video of the problem it will help understand me batter?

This question has been asked before but no one can answer it odd.

Nexus 7 charger is two amps. Stock s3 charger is one amp.

Can I charge my s3 without damaging it using the other charger. People say it charges faster. Some people say it doesn't matter because the kernel will limit it.

Whats the real deal?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Watoy:
I am pretty sure it will use only what it needs. Atleast thats what i been taught at radioshack
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] worwig:
There are a lot of variables as to what the maximum charge current will be. I've never seen it go over .8 amp. So if you use a 1 amp, or a 20 amp charger, it will be .8 amp. MAX. Usually less.

Use whatever you have handy that is 5 volts.

I actually use an old 5 volt .6 amp charger for overnight charging. A bit slow, but I don't care.

I have a home grown charger on my motorcycle that can go well over 1 amp, but the phone only has ever gone to about .8 amp. For a long time I had that charger set to 5.5 volts, and the current was up a bit closer to 1 amp. But the heat worried me and I bumped it back down to 5 volts.

You realize you're using a 10v charger on a 5v device right? That can toast your battery over time, a short time too depending on if you leave it plugged into it over night, etc..
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keem85:
Hi there!

I've read somewhere that the best thing is not to use SetCPU when I have another kernel controller installed. But in my case sTweaks only goes to 1.7ghz and SetCPU goes to 1.8ghz.. Also SetCPU has a "screen off" profile which I like very much and find suitable for my needs.

When activated, which one of theese apps wins over the other?

Regards Kim
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leamoor:
they are different,stweaks is SIYAHKERNEL dedicated apps

in my case,they are work together.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bordikun:
yep they can be used together. in fact setCPU overrides what you setup-ed in Stweaks. because Stweaks only applies settings during boot time
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] keem85:
Thanks alot! I'm using siyah.. So sTweaks changes the values permanent while SetCPU is a realtime overclock. I understand now! :) Thanks..

I still don't understand why sTweaks can't change the value to 1.8ghz when the siyahkernel allows it. But that's another story

(by long pressing the app getting this menu option and choosing it).

3. Repeat step 2 for all user apps except for ones giving you problems launching (pretty rare - Facebook and Dropbox forget your credentials that way so leave them on internal memory).

3. Make sure you have at least 100MB free on your internal memory and you will not get this message.

Hey there,

I got my one s 3 months ago because of it has s4 processor. But same day i got the phone i learnt it has a s3 processor. Then i didnt give the phone back.

Anyway, for a while i am thinking to sell this phone and get a nexus. And i wonder what do you think? (There is no bad performance issues about phone btw. )

Thanks in advance.

Have a nice day.
[HTC One S] usaff22:
I wouldn't get a Galaxy Nexus - however I would probably send it to your retailer and ask for an S4, since you bought the phone thinking you would get an S4. Ask for an S4. Or sell your One S, and wait for the next nexus(es)

[HTC One S] .TanTien:
I wouldn't send it back. I have used the Nexus for quite a while and selled it a month ago because I wanted the One S. I really don't regrett it. I like the feel, the looks, the size and pretty much everything more then those from the Nexus. Unfortunatly there is no Cyanogenmod/ParanoidAndroid availible for the S3 version. This is the only thing I don't like about this phone. But I hope there will be in the future because more and more S3 devices get selled. Here in Germany you have to be lucky to get the S4 version (in every shop there are only the S3 versions). Maybe I'll sell it in the future and get a Nexus (if I like it), who knows...
[HTC One S] usaff22:
Complain to your carrier, say you were expecting an S4 but you got an S3. Push them, and they'll give it. Or get a written confirmation from your carrier, allowing you to replace the phone by sending it to HTC and requesting an S4 processor. Sure, it is a hassle, but if you ask me it's well worth it.
[HTC One S] AndrewAmazed:
I'm sort of on the same train of thought. I really do like the HTC but the development or lack of development kind of makes me want to sell it and hope that HTC will come out with a Nexus or something of the sort...

I got my bionic this week, and it had ICS .2231 (I believe that was the right number, I could be wrong though) and I was able to successfully fastboot .905 back to it.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] linuxgator:
You can go back to GB from .232 or below. If you install .235 or higher, then you're stuck. .223X is considered below .232, they just changed the numbering system. I believe anyone who has tried downgrading from .235+ has bricked their phone.

Also, didn't you previously post a lot over on the D3 forum?

Yup, I used to be in the D3 forum, but I got a D4 and have been frequenting that and the RAZR forums now :)

[Streak 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vicolodo:
Hello,

i compared video call between the dell streak 5 (with streakdroid 2.1 , android 2.3.3) and the new ipad using TANGO

and

video call between the iphone 4S and the new ipad using FACETIME

I found that video call between iphone/ipad was much better than video call streak/ipad: the call was very clear

What can be the reason ?

I know FACETIME has been developed expressly for iphone/ipad, so that can be a reason

Another reason is perhaps that iphone has better hardware quality than the dell streak....

What do you think?

Anyone knows some ROM (newer than streakdroid) to be tried to improve video call quality, or if exists any version of TANGO, SKYPE, OOVOO, FRING that can improve video call quality on dell streak 5?
