[Samsung Infuse 4G] hollywood528:
Set any sync you have to off or the maximum interval.

Adjust the automatic screen brightness levels, I posted a thread, "custom backlight settings". Turning down the brightness levels will help tremendously.

For the best battery benefit, turn automatic brightness off and set the brightness level as low as you can tolerate.

Set screen timeout to 15seconds.

Turn off any vibrate notifications or keyboard vibrations. You'd be surprised how much battery vibrate uses.

Download Justin inverted gapps. They are mostly a dark black theme.

Also set your wallpaper to a black or dark background. Anything but white! Making the screen mostly show darker colors reduces battery consumption.

Turn off auto update in play store.

Turn off WiFi, GPS, and Bluetooth whenever possible.

Advanced users only... you can under clock to 800mhz. This may produce some lag, but will help save battery.

You can also under volt, there are plenty of threads on here describing a safe way to go about doing this.

Hope this helps. And good luck
[Samsung Infuse 4G] MKAN648:
After seeing that Mediaserver usage I already turned off all the syncs. I can see some improvement and right now I'm reducing screen dim level.

The only thing that is bothering me now is sometimes my processor usage is 100% for a good 10 minute or so (no foreground process running) which makes my phone really hot. This is only thing now I need help from you guys, thank u all for relying. mg2195 i'm attaching screen shots.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XenomorphXx121:
HI I was wondering if someone could help me do the correct way of adding or installing apps to an external memory card because there are countless explanations that I've found on Google and all seem to be different, I've already ruined an sd card because I followed the wrong instructions.

It would be very helpful if someone could tell me the best app to use for this and do I really need to partition it to fat32 and if I do which is the correct procedure.

The last card I tried it read it okay on my s3 and was able to add photos to it and videos but I couldn't find roms there with my emulators and directory bind didn't seem to work.

Please someone help as I don't want to waste money buy ruining another card.

I'm not used to android yet as I've always used symbian.

Thank you for reading.

Yes Search for Directory Bind
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] XenomorphXx121:
Thanks, not sure what that means but there was no need to insult and I'm sure when you first got an android you made mistakes, you weren't born with an android in your hand and instinctively knew how to use it.

Wasn't sure about asking for help in here but after your snide remark doubt I will again....
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nick Fury:
I wasnt being snide at all. You asked the question, you wanted the help, and i gave you the answer you were looking. I could of been a horrible user and told you to search yourself like it states in the forum rules. But I didnt.

My answer to you was the exact thing to search for which was Directory Bind.

Im not going to spoon feed you. I gave you the answer and got a crappy response.

And just want to let you know that with an attitude like that, it wont be long before the powers that be notice and have something to say about.

Best wishes

I'm using omega Rom, with the external2 internal mod. Works perfectly. Phone shows 64gb internal and 16gb external. All apps, games, videos, pictures are working.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KidCarter93:
I'm not being funny, but how was Nick Fury's post to you insulting or demeaning in any way whatsoever. You asked a question because you obviously needed help and Nick was nice enough to help you by telling you exactly what to search for to help you with your problem.

Of course none of us were born with an Android in our hands, or any phone for that matter and yes of course we've all made mistakes at some point. But without making mistakes, we can't learn from them.

Now onto your final point. If you don't want to post here again, don't. This site has almost 4.7 million members and for the most part, this community is a great place to be and will have users who will respond nicely to help given to them. You are obviously not one of these people, so if you don't want to post on this site again, don't. If you don't want to be on this site anymore, please do us all a favour and leave. I won't miss you and I'm sure others won't either.

Emmm... sorry, but... what is so difficult ? The "search" term, or "Directory bind"?

Let me help you: The search term is the process which users of Android devices are implementing after rooting their brains to find a solution in the web.

Directory bind is a name of software.

As it seems to be too difficult to you, I'm providing you with the TOP SECRET ANDROID USERS CODE TO SOLVE YOUR PROBLEM - DO NOT DISTRIBUTE IT!!!1111 Please use link No.1, it will guide you further... but let's be honest: it is slightly more demanding than SEARCH...

Do I need to partition it with fat32 or just leave it as it is and just use directory bind?

Sorry for all the questions it's just I wasted 40 pound on an sd card last time and don't want to again.

Thank you for the help and sorry again I didn't know it was a quote it does look like an insult.

I have no idea what have you bought, in my case it was half price, quick and plenty of space even for my 7GB eating satnav.

IF Directory Bind will NOT work properly, you can always try more complicated solution

or, if all of the above will fail... hmmm... it is likely that you;ll be happy if you'll change the phone... This one you should manage more easily. :)

It was a SanDisk ultra micro class 10 got it from amazon it had genuine box and everything I think I messed it up by not mounting and unmounting it, wasn't used to mounting cards and there were no instructions that came with my s3 on anything to do with micro cards.

It's useless now won't even read on my laptop or phone.

I love my phone never changing it unless technology gets better and phones become like wiis or they use telekinesis to operate them.

10 Essential Windows 8 Keyboard Shortcuts

When you’re using Windows 8 on a tablet, it’s easy enough to navigate the new OS. But if you don’t have a touch screen, there’s no need to mouse around to make key functions appear. If you know the correct Laptop Keyboard shortcuts, you can work faster and more efficiently, no matter the type of Windows 8 PC.

1. Windows Key + C: Displays Charms menu.

2. Windows Key + X: Brings up a menu of advanced system options, including Windows Control Panel, Command Prompt, Task Manager and File Explorer.

3. Windows Key + I: Displays the Settings menu for the current app. For example, if you’re in Internet Explorer 10, this key shows Internet options. If you’re on the Start menu, it shows general OS settings.

4. Windows Key + Q: Brings up the apps search menu that allows you to search your list of installed programs.

5. Windows Key + D: Activates desktop mode.

6. Windows Key + Tab: Brings up the Task Switcher and toggles between Windows 8-style apps.

7. Windows Key + H: Brings up Share menu for the current app. For example, hitting Windows Key + H in Bing Maps, lets you email or share map information on social networks.

8. Windows Key + M: Opens desktop mode and minimizes all windows.

9. Windows Key + W: Opens universal search menu and sets it to search settings.

10. Windows Key + F: Opens universal search menu and sets it to search files.

Need help with compatible parts

Hello,

by searching the web I have found that it is cheaper and easier to build a computer on your own and after watching your video "How to build a PC with Asus W Series W3Z Keyboard: The Ultimate Guide from Tek Syndicate" it looked really easy.

but I have little experience with computer parts and I am unsure if some of the parts I have picked will be compatable or fit in the case, things like that. So I know I am asking a lot (or at least I think I am) but could you guys have a look at the specs of these parts and tell me that if I build it I will have no problems or not. Also if possible could you tell me why these parts are compatable.

P.S I choose these Compatible Parts because I wanted to build a good gaming computer that can play most modern day games on Max settings. So if you could tell me if that is possible with these parts I would greatly appreciate it.

P.P.S My parents budget was $1000 and they know that all of this added up is slightly over that.

I use gremote pro app. it allows you to use the android keyboard to type into your latptop. it also has mouse control and a media remote control. it's very customisable so you can program the remote to work with whatever programs you want on your laptop. downside is the server (which you install on your laptop) costs $5 and the app is not frequently updated but it works fine on the nexus 7 (although only in portrait mode). there are similar free apps on the market but i think gremote is worth the money. i think you can download a trial server from their website which auto disconnects after 15min - should give you a good idea if it's worth it.

using splashtop or remote desktop app won't work for you cause it will change the screen resolution on your laptop so that's no good if you're hooking it up to your tv. plus it will stress out the processor some.

Hey guys--

Sorry is this has been posted but, the xda app isn't exactly search friendly. That being said, I'm having issues.

I'm on Sky JB Base 7.1 update 7.2 and i'm having issues with the radio (UCLF6). It will be connected for a few minutes then loses all service for a few minutes (wifi stays connected though).

Sorry if I'm not giving enough information, but if you need more, I'd be glad to oblige.

try reflashing.the radio or try a different radio and yes more details will be best. when on wifi the inly reason network providee data will be used are mainly for billing app mms phones calls etc aside ofvthat wifi will always be on

I noticed that when I was on base 5. On base 7.1, I'm not seeing that anymore. I'm on UCLF5 and no issues. After flashing the base, it's highly recommended to let it sit and cache. Then start the Google app restoring process. Also check the governor (on demand or performance).

open terminal and type fastboot devices. (you should seee serial number)

give output (you shoud see you cid_number
