And at this moment your phone is running on the stock ruu ?

qWhereAmI is an Android application that displays your location, and reverse geocodes your Gps coordinates into a friendly place name, such as "Battle Creek, Michigan" or "Chicago, Illinois." This is done using Google's, or Bing's reverse geocoding services. With the click of a button, you can save your current location. This is great for truckers who can simply click a button if they hop out of the rig for a minute, or stop for a nap, and don't feel like immediately recording information in their paperwork. The reverse geocoding service is handy just for figuring out what little town you're in. Yes, there are other applications that already do this, such as weather services, that display your location, but their location services don't update as frequently as this one does, or with as much detail.

Your saved locations can easily be exported as Google Earth kml files, or you can import kml files. Export saved locations and share them colleagues, friends, or family. On vacation? Use qWhereAmI to save locations of places you visit, export them to kml, and open all your saved places in Google Earth for a trip down memory lane!

Are you a truck driver that operates locally without the need for a logbook? Are you sure that you're not traveling outside the (local) range defined by the the D.O.T? Use the built in Haversine calculator to determine if a destination is within your bounds, otherwise, pull out the old logbook!

Both Gps and Network location providers may be used, although Gps is much more accurate. Network location can sometimes be off by miles to your actual location, although if you're just using it for the reverse geocoding, it shouldn't matter that much.

Clicking on Local Information will bring up various options, such as viewing the location on a map, getting directions from this location to X, or viewing Wikipedia data about where you're at. If you have saved a location, options are included to easily get directions to a saved location from your current position, just by clicking a button or two, or viewing the location on a map.

Currently, the mapping links work with Google and Bing. Clicking the map links will open up Google Maps if it's on your device, otherwise, a browser will open up to Google Maps Mobile.Any navigation links will direct you to Google Navigator (Maps), or whichever navigation app you have installed. The Bing links open whatever default browser you have to display map information. Future versions may include functionality to launch the Bing app for map links and navigation.

PERMISSIONS

ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION, ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION - These two permissions allow the app to receive GPS coordinates, or network based location estimates from your device.

ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, INTERNET - Required to check for active data connection, and provide reverse geocoding.

WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE - Required in order to import and export Kml files.

[Atrix 4G General] Kahbrohn:
Hi...

I am test driving the Neutrino ROM on my Atrix 4G. So far I find it to be a very nice ROM but I have run into a small dilema...

Because of the fact that this ROM seems to be pretty stripped down on some features (one of the main reasons I choose to test it) it seems like the home/drawers screen sizes can not be re-sized. t seems to have a standard 4x4 grid size and the re-sizing seems to have been stripped out. I use MInimalistic Text to set up my home screen and the 4x4 grid limits what and how I can set my widgets up.

Is there any way to add this feature back into the ROM? It seems to be a Cyanogenmod display feature.

Thanks...

Uncle Kah
[Atrix 4G General] el_venga:
You have to change the launcher for that. No other way to do it. Holo launcher is very good for pre-ics.

Sent from my Abacus
[Atrix 4G General] Kahbrohn:
Thanks el_venga... I did switch launchers but the same issue. It is a new launcher to me that does state that it can re-size the grid (Nemus Launcher) and such but I have not been able to find the option anywhere. I may switch to Holo if I can not find the proper solution shortly.

:D
[Atrix 4G General] Kahbrohn:
Ok... found it. The option under the Nemus Launcher was tucked away under an option called "HomeSettings". In my all mighty "noobiness", I was looking for "Display Settings" or something like that as I have become used to seeing.

You are looking for the solution, what will enforce the other peoples to follow the rules (e.g. to not install anything without your permission)?

[LG Optimus G (International)] sidthegreatest:
The memory leaks were only present due to lack of proper documentation from Samsung regarding the Exynos.. Besides, it was fixed a long time back once the source for the GT-I9305 was given by Samsung.

Given the amount of support Qualcomm provides to developers, it is highly unlikely that this would have memory leaks. Though it pretty much hinges on whether this has a locked bootloader or not..

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] travis.bridges10:
Ok guys so I just popped my root cherry less than 24hrs ago, and have downloaded, installed, and flashed CWD 6.0.1.2 Touch. Im still running the stock rom for now, because I cant get Rom manager to behave properly. I have also paid for the premium version, thinking it would help. This is the walkthrough I used - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1875914

Edit: Also, under EZ unlock bootloader status is unknown. I read that its ok and is still unlocked. EZ unlock did ask for SU permissions so I know Im rooted. I dont know if this would make a difference. Should I, would it hurt anything to, uninstall and reinstall?

My problems:

1. When I attempt to download a rom through CWM, I get a message saying I need to upgrade ROM manager, and takes me to the play store. Whats that about. Im new to this, and I would rather do flashing that way then all the other more complicated ways. Suggestions?

2. When I first flashed it and did a back up to ext-sd everything worked as said in the walkthroughs. But now if I Reboot into recovery through CWM it doesn't act the same way as it did the first time. It brings up a much smaller menu, with yellow writing below saying manual mode. And another time I tried after flashing touch it worked once but hasnt yet again. Then if i do it manually: Power down> volume up, power, home it just boots the phone up. No recovery mode. Suggestions?

I have done hours of research through google and xda and cant seem to find any similar problems. I am aware that it could very well be a mistake by me, but I am at a loss now. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Im really wanting to get into this world but I know I have to take it slow for now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chre77:

Manual recovery is volume up/power/home all at he same time and hold till you see Samsung splash screen. Don't know about rom manager/CWM. Haven't used since Tbolt. Too wonky for me. I use and prefer TWRP. No issues ever.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] travis.bridges10:
I started ANDROID recovery mode that time, not CWM.

This is what shows!

Reboot system now

[Samsung Captivate Glide] twinsfan14:
For any doubters, here's a story. My Captivate Glide decided to take a little swim in the toilet Friday night (don't ask how or why, because even I don't know), so I dried it off and all the works. I also decided to take part in that rice myth for waterlogged devices. I checked it the next morning, and it still didn't work. So later that afternoon, I was ready to go to the AT&T store and make an insurance claim, and to my extreme delight and surprise, it turned on. Only a couple keys on the keyboard are sticky, but I don't use the keyboard nearly enough to justify a $125 deductible.

So moral of the story is that

A.) the rice myth works

and

B.) the Captivate Glide is one resilient phone! :p
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jayjayjoker2:
Keys are sticky? Try wiping them down with lens cleaner ive done that for sticky keys
[Samsung Captivate Glide] phatryan69:
Rice always works butbu need to give it more then one day usally then would boot prlly weird the first time cause might still be moisture on th board the steams off. Even if the keys were "sticky" they would eventually get back t proper working condition.. I took a dive with mine in my pocket down 10 ft of water so
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bs27975:
Hopefully, at least, you took a picture with it, while you were down there.

(Before it died, that is. And auto-saved to sd card, of course.)

From speaking with people who specialize in remediating electronic devices (smoke, water), it seems the single most important thing is to get all forms of power away from the thing as soon as possible.

Including what would be the CMOS battery in a computer.

Apparently it's the (micro?) corrosion between power and water that kills it.

If I had done the dive, I'd be freaking out and ripping the case apart to get at any battery. Probably doing the case in in the process, in my panic.

Good to hear you, and yours, survived. One less thing to live down (if you're married)?

-----

Rice thing? Pack a dunked device in a bag of rice and leave it for a couple of days? Perhaps with a good fan going nearby? (When my basement flooded, even though only a couple of inches deep, they brought in some industrial fans for several days. Even if the water seems gone, the humidity is still way high, and that's gotta come down, too.)

[Wildfire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lesicnik1:
I think that if you keep doing that for a long time (and I mean LOOOOONG time) there is a chance of the flash storage getting some bad blocks.

But that would take a very large quantity of formats and re-writes over a course of a large amount of time

(Boy, am I specific or what?)

So, your weekend flashing shouldn't cause any issues.

Hello

My son has a Verizon SIII. We have CWM 6 installed, and it's rooted.

I want to put on a new ROM for him, or perhaps just one of the better kernels for underclocking, battery life etc. Problem is, I don't know if he still has the stock ROM on, and he's not sure. He seems to recall he may have installed a ROM with Odin, but he's not sure.

I don't want to start putting a Kernel on that should only be on a stock ROM, if he's got something else.

Baseband is I525VRLF2

Kernel is 3.08-618049-usr

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] harry_fine:
Assuming it's stock, are there any good kernels that are appropriate for this ROM for the purpose of battery life?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] prdog1:
Bootloader must be unlocked and have custom recovery. I use and prefer TWRP but CWM also available. There are a few TW kernels. Clean kernel, lean Kernel, Trinity kernel, KT747. Never ran a custom kernel on stock rom so don't know what would be the outcome. lol

So my GS3 fell into the toilet last night at about 3am (totally freaked out) and immediately broke it down and put it in rice. Took it out after about 6 hours and it turns on, but the screen doesn't really work. It'll flicker and I couldn't answer a call. Anyways, I'm wondering if T-MO's insurance (Asurion) will cover it? The store isn't open yet and I wanna know like, now lol. If not, does Samsung have a manufacturers warranty or something? If they both cover it, which will cost me less and get me another phone faster?

Rice doesn't work btw. Use 90 percent or more rubbing alcohol as that drives out water. My brother went swimming with his one phone and I put it in rubbing alcohol for like 30 minutes and dried it using a hair dryer and it worked perfectly. Rubbing alcohol is non conductive so it doesn't short anything out plus it dries insanely fast.

Easily get back your $130 just by selling digitizer and glass.

This is also true. Most people are not aware you can separate the digitizer and the glass, so you can undercut everyone on eBay and still make a decent profit.
