[Android General] Chochiwpg:
Just found this on the Google Official Blog. Looks like this is what was going to be announced today before the cancellation due to the hurricane. Jellybean 4.2 sounds really awesome with multiple user accounts, photo sphere and gesture typing and triple tap to magnify/zoom your entire screen. For the blog post, information, pricing, availability and a short video, check out the link below:

What's New in Android 4.2

http://www.android.com/whatsnew/
[Android General] Rod3:
With the N4 being only $299 & $349 in the play store and only $199 at T-Mobile, I know what I am getting in a couple weeks.
[Android General] Chochiwpg:
I know right. My only concern was the device not having a Micro SD card slot and wondering if 16GB would be enough.

But really for $349, you can't go wrong.
[Android General] linye:
Prices are too good. I'll wait for reviews and then get one.
[Android General] m4k3r:
Awesome, thank you for sharking this!

build no IMM76d.XWLPW

kindly link me to the exact root kernel for my device,

Many Thanks.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Adarzannh:
PLEASE DON'T USE THIS!!!!! Using Cfroot makes your phone susceptible to the eMMC super brick bug! So flash something like siyah kernel to keep your phone safe.

I'd advise you to use 4.1.5 as version 5 is still in beta. :) good luck

The G2X left such a bad taste, that I would never buy an LG phone again. Good find though.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] uoY_redruM:
Yeah I saw it on Facebook too. That's a hell of an outright price in my opinion. If I didn't already have my S3 I wouldn't hesitate to buy it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] seksmeup:
The main reason I won't go for Nexus phones is because of the lack of SD card support.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] babymatteo:
Yah but the best in Development support pretty much makes up for it.

---------- Post added at 10:06 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:04 AM ----------

It'a a Nexus phone. LG won't have anything to do with it except making the phone. All software support will come directly from Google. So gone are the days waiting for LG's updates.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] 1SiK1500:
It doesnt draw me away from my S3 enough. I here there is Wireless charging for it though... Still an LG Device.

There were alot of Rumors, i thought Motorola would have got it.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ThC23:
G2X was also supposed to be a Google Phone and look at what happened to that.

I understand this is part of the Nexus line up, but no SD and the fact that it's an LG is like nah! I'll pass.

Price is good though.

All these awesome specs mean nothing to me if it doesn't have an sd card slot.

Yes, it's been confirmed that it has a RGB notification LED same as the Galaxy Nexus.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tapsta:
ohm nom nom nom nom. looks good I wouldn't mind having a nexus 4. can't go wrong with the google phones. especially at that price point.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] accordex:
Buying this too...gs3 out for 5 months still no car dock or wireless charge...ips display at 320 ppi will be nice too
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Crisisx1:
The g2x was also a Google phone and that was a fail. LG sux
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] sano614:
That was a Google Experience phone, meaning it was just stock Android from LG.

This is a Nexus device, so all support will come from Google, and not LG.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] adslee:
It's an insane deal, but no LTE or microSD expansion is a real turn off...
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] osmosizzz:
I am thinking about it but im leaning more towards the no

The main UPS:

The Display (no matter if LG sucks, They make the best displays hands down. no argument there)

Processor (Well the S3 is pretty smooth so)

Battery life (Friking 15 hours talk time! TALK ABOUT OPTIMIZATION)

***if you really think about it, those are the things that mainly drive us to what we consider a "good" phone.

The Main Down:

Its made by LG (and for those who say google deals with everything, um about that. My nexus 7 had to get serviced by Asus not Google..correct me if im wrong though)

No SD card slot (Although we know all nexuses are like this we pray one day Google releases a Nexus with SD expand ability)

T- Mobile 21mbps HSPA+ (Comon really??? So my 18Mbps down would drop

Personal Preference: APT-X ( I have apt-x BT headphones and i know the sound difference between the apt x codec and SBC codec)

Its a good device, but I may keep the s3. I am drooling on that nexus 10 though. Maybe next year
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ImARaptor:
Can someone confirm that Gizmodo has their facts straight and that this phone will be unlocked for $300?!?! surely thats not right. Then we could all sell our GS3s and get this phone for free and have money left over 0.o

EDIT "Great value

We’ve always focused on building great devices at great value. And we think today’s devices offer the very best that money can buy. Here are more details on when and where you can pick up your next Nexus device:

Nexus 4: 8GB for $299; 16GB for $349; available unlocked and without a contract on 11/13 on the Google Play store in the U.S., U.K., Australia, France, Germany, Spain and Canada. The 16GB version will also be available through T-Mobile for $199, with a 2-year contract (check here for more details)."

AHHHHH FREE FLAGSHIP PHONE!!!! :D
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] g2uzer:
299 at the play store with no contract for the 8gb,

But i agree with others, after owning a G2X, I will never purchase LG again,
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] babymatteo:
Lmao. G2x wasn't a Nexus phone. It just came with Vanilla Android. Spec-wise, the G2X isn't too far from the S3 imo. Besides, Google wouldn't have chosen LG to be the maker of their flagship device for nothing. I love both LG and Samsung, but in my experience and share of phones...i'd take LG for its overall build quality.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ScientificOne:
With dropbox, box, google drive, etc...I can do without the microSD...if this has a lot of developer support, I'd seriously consider jumping ship...I'm not overly impressed with the SGS III...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fyremedik:
Being that this is the first T-mobile phone with "offical" JB. Is there anyone out there who could pull the wifi calling system out of this phone and make a zip or apk file so we can try it on other T-mobile phones running JB roms? Thanks!:fingers-crossed:
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] McNoob:
Second the request - thanks fyremedik! Especially curious if the Wifi Caling app would work on an Int'l GN2
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] slimc84:
I do not believe this would work...I know that when I was running JB leaks for my Verizon GS3 the Wifi calling showed up as an option but force closed and would not work...pretty sure it is carrier dependent...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] McNoob:
It's TOTALLY carrier dependent, as far as I know. However I am a TMo subscriber... on my international HTC Sensation, I installed wifi calling apk that had been yanked from the TMo ROM, with no problems - I hope it'll work when porting from the TMO GN2 to the Int'l one...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] harpocrates:
You are correct, it is Carrier dependant and its a feature that Tmobile offers. It used to be able to be pulled from roms and installed (not as an apk cause there were more files it needed to work and the apk installation was not possible), however I see this being a problem in its current state. The reason for that is cause now Tmobile has it built in as a feature in the settings of the rom not as an individual app as before.

Developers would pull the app out with necessary files and offer it for porting to other devices and it was there. I have spent hours on this because I would try different Roms on my vibrant and if they didnt have wifi calling i had to find a way to install it (It was always a flashable zip to get wifi calling). Later I started playing around with insalling ics roms on vibrant and tmobile didnt have any phones with ics yet so there was no wifi calling compatible and devs were having a hard time and it just never happened. I then got the galaxy nexus with jb and went for 8 months without wifi calling (I think at some point the ICS version came out).

When Tmo offered the note 2 and with wifi calling i got excited that someone would be able to extract it and i might be able to get it working on nexus...but then i saw how they have integrated it into rom. It wont even show up in titanium backup as an app. Just the wifi calling settings. Im sure some dev will eventually be able to do it..but i see this taking time as it usually is not a priority for devs. I wish I knew enough to work on it :)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fyremedik:
Thanks for the info. I would have no clue where to start. Here's hoping some mad genius gets bored and gives the rest of us a gift.:)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] harpocrates:
Thats why we are all here...for the mad geniuses ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] blchff04:

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] truthkillszz:
I'm new to tmobile but does using wifi calling use up your minutes also?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fyremedik:
It is supposed to. I am on unlimited calling and text so I don't really know. I want it more for when I am at work and have no signal, I can plug into the wifi and still get calls and messages. I am in love with the JB roms and don't want to go back to ICS just for wifi calling. ( But I do when at work.:crying:)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] harpocrates:
It doesn't use up your minutes but you have to ask t mobile to add it to your plan so it doesn't use minutes
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] deeznutz1977:
you know what else is cool if your out of the country you can call home for free . as long as your connected to wifi

I've heard that but i haven't actually tried it to confirm..

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jyveafk:
Hoping it can be ripped out, so when CM10(11?) hits the NoteII, it can be flashed back on.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] harpocrates:
It seems very unlikely that will happen as it's not an app anymore but built into ROM.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Jyveafk:
Yeah, worried about that too.

We'll see how things go.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] deeznutz1977:
I flashed the n7105 ROM and I was resorting my titanium backup and saw thisView attachment 1470586

I searched the movial one and the Google code page came up that I saw here ...
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fyremedik:
Did you try to restore that in titanium? And if you did, is it working?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] harpocrates:
I saw the same thing. its not an app to restore, just the settings.. so you cant use that on a different ROM that doesn't have WiFi calling
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] deeznutz1977:
Exactly just stating what i saw
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] harpocrates:
I figured.. was just responding to other poster.. that this can't be restored as an app ;)
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] tracerit:
are there any ROMs that still allow wifi calling? or when you install any ROM wifi calling is rendered unusable?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] harpocrates:
Since tmobile started using the new ims Services the WiFi calling feature is built into the ROM so only roms that use T-Mobile ROMs as a base will have the WiFi calling... so for devices like the note 2, galaxy blaze, s3, HTC one s and more you have to use ROMs that are based on T-Mobile ROMs. On older phones like the vibrant or the lg optimus one that used the kineto service,you could install the WiFi calling afterwards (via flashing a compatible zip file). Those are the phones I've worked on and that has been my experience.
[HTC Rezound] AlmostTactful:
So I'm still S-ON but I'm rooted and running Clean Rom 4.5

I need to take my phone back to Verizon as the USB port is crapping out on me and it's a pain to charge the phone. So I found the latest OTA ROM, here..

http://www.androidpolice.com/2012/0...cream-sandwich-ruu-for-final-ota-3-14-605-12/

And do I just need to rename it to PH98 and then flash it via recovery or is the process much more detailed?
[HTC Rezound] dalvear88:
PH98IMG is what you will want to name it, but essentially that's all you need if your s-on. they don't really check the bootloader screen so you'll be ok. I've turned in 2 already haha, one i left S-Off
[HTC Rezound] AlmostTactful:
Awesome!!! Thanks :)
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Make sure you relock the bootloader first.

fastboot oem lock
[HTC Rezound] AlmostTactful:
I literally go into fastboot, then oem, then lock? Then after that I go through the HBOOT and flash the ROM?
[HTC Rezound] shrike1978:
Yep. I've done it before by putting the PH98IMG on the sdcard, running "adb reboot bootloader" (which will take you straight to fastboot), "fastboot oem lock", then select BOOTLOADER from the fastboot menu and let it flash.
[HTC Rezound] Shallow_1:
I had a funny one....my rez was over heating and I brought it in and they popped out the battery...put it back in and then went straight to the h boot screen....I'm s-on still...but it said tampered and I thought I was screwed....but they still sent me a new one....sweet....I was elated
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:
I'm continuing this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1951870 here because it relates to the Sprint version.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:
Ok so here's what I was able to find out. The first store i called said that the phone was in the computer but not in stock could possibly come in tonights or Wednesdays shipment. The second store said that Sprint isn't going to release the phone till the 11th to which I replied they released it Thursday and she was like oh well that's weired. So I called the Reward Zone Premier Silver customer service and they weren't able to tell me exactly what I needed to know so I was transferred to .com support. This is what they said. The phone is available to order NOT PREORDER. Where it says "coming soon" that means it's coming soon in stores. When you add the phone to your cart you add all of your plan info and then pay for it. They said it ships in 5-7 days.

If this helps you please hit thanks!:cool:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dariste:
It says back ordered for me when I ordered it online :/ from BB the day it became available...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] madsquabbles:
mine said backordered too. i really wanted to keep it - 18mo no interest, $10 in bb rewards, and $88 credit on my account. but i cancelled it. i don't want to have to fight for the $150 price match on the retail price and picked one up a sprint today. they just got a new shipment in when i got there.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] loveshinesthru:
What about the 50 gift card towards purchase? Would I lose that if I ordered online? I have a white one that I bought at sprint, but hubby is waiting for his to use the gift card.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lazydazed:
Nope It's still 50 bucks no matter what. At bb that is. I don't think you can cash them in though...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] loveshinesthru:
It wasnt an actual card, it was the promo they had back in feb. you sign up with your email. My brother lost the email, but it will show up if we order in store. Im not sure it will show up if I order online?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:
That's correct you will still get the gift card, you just can't use it to pay for the phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] loveshinesthru:
oh well, I guess we will wait then. We hardly ever shop at BB. lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lazydazed:
Ooooh, yes you'll get it, the promo is attached to the phone number they you upgrade. Might try calling to order it so you might be able to apply the fifty directly to the purchase,

I misunderstood because bb made me buy a fifty gift card in order to secure my preorder
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] loveshinesthru:
Yeah, I figured and I shouldve clarified better.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] lazydazed:
No prob.. so has anyone gotten one from bb yet? Just wondering if in store or online is faster..
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] venture51:
Called two Best Buy's this morning in the North Dallas area. Still not in the inventory system (don't know if their inventory system is national) - so none in stock at the store. They are taking pre-orders though.

Couldn't hazard a guess on which channel is actually faster.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] flyingmunkey:
i've called 15+ stores twice a day since the phone launched. the responses have been mixed, but over time the general consensus is now shifting to "it won't be available in store until Nov 11." i've pre-ordered it at a store, but in the meantime, i also bought one on their website. original delivery was 10/31-11/1, but just got updated to 11/8-11/19. if they start showing up in store before i get mine, i might just grab one there and cancel my online order. but i figure i've already missed launch day and have been waiting anyways, so what's a couple more days?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:
Called around to several stores today and wasn't able to find any phones or anyone who could tell me when it's going to released.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] Dariste:
My Nexus S just died on me... This wait just got so much worse.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] venture51:
Talked to a Best Buy Mobile sales associate from a local store again today - this rep (taking it with a huge grain of salt) said that the carrier (Sprint) corporate stores would have a two week exclusive from launch. If true, that puts the date in line with the AT&T launch date:

November 9th

.

If I didn't have all those Best Buy gift cards from my Photon trade-in - I would've gone to the corporate store by now. :P
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note II] DarkPhoenix:
I'm guessing that the date they gave you is probably right or in the ballpark. I've heard from several stores that it won't be out till the 11th.

So I rooted my GS3 (SGH-I747M) last night and everything seemed to be A.O.K. Only problem is that I can't seem to do anything since then. I tried making a backup through ROM Manager and it failed. I tried updating my Recovery through ROM Manager and that failed too. I figured there was a bug with ROM Manager so I went into CWM and did a backup and not even that is working properly. I think I may have a bad version of CWM but I can't be certain. Any ideas would be great, thanks.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Shankre:
Hello All,

I've searched the forums and found other instances of people reporting this, but no clear solution.

Pictures taken in 'normal' lighting seem to come out fine, however pictures taken with the camera's flash, tend to come out with a blue tint to them. See attached sample.

Tweaking the settings doesn't seem to resolve it, and others tend to think its hardware related (and to replace the phone).

Does anybody here have first hand experience with this? Is this a common problem with the skyrocket and similar model phones, or do I possibly have an issue with the phone itself?

Thanks in advance for any information and/or suggestions anybody can provide.

Best Regards,

G
