[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xshadowinxbc:
So you say, but that seems to be what my 3GS did, and the battery life on it wasn't bad at all. For instance, I could keep Skype on while talking to my friend throughout a large building with multiple wifi hotspots without hardly any interruptions (elevator aside.. well no sometimes it even worked in there)... and it had an Otterbox case on (a fairly bulky one). Heck, sometimes it even kept Pandora going while I was walking around campus, not even inside of any buildings, and pretty far away from the nearest wifi. On the other hand, the data speeds capped out a bit faster than the GS3... but that wasn't an issue since it was still well over 1-2MB/s.

Compare this to my GS3, which can't even keep Anime Radio playing within that same building. Hell, it can't even Pandora going... which is much more bandwidth-friendly and probably even caches a full song while playing it, so you don't get interruptions during outages. Don't even think about Skype.

I guess the GS3 just has a much weaker WIFI reception, both hardware and software. I think it could be improved if the software controlling it tried to at least immediately jump to another hotspot when the signal started getting too weak.

Yeah, I was just in a bit of a state of denial, I guess. I paid that much money for a "future tech device" that has worse wifi than something that was released well over a year ago. It's a little pathetic... exacerbated all the more by the fact that I'm still using that minimum data plan (~200MB/month) that I was using on my iPhone. I'm not trying to be an iPhone fanboy or anything. It's just that considering the evidence, this is just how it is. I might try getting it back to Best Buy since I'm still under there insurance, and try getting a new one to see if it has better WIFI reception, but it's difficult to do full testing without a control. I'd need to find someone else on campus that has an GS3 and then compare our signals.

Also, I am using a case. It's just an Otterbox Commuter.

It's worth a try. Where is this at? I can't find it.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Heisenberg420:
That is interesting that you get much better performance on an old iPhone 3gs. Not really sure I've seen enough evidence to say the iPhone 3gs has better WiFi hardware than the gs3. Apple has been known to use top of the line hardware everywhere (that's why they're so expensive) so it wouldn't surprise me.

On a more productive note, why not use your mobile data?
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xshadowinxbc:
Me and my mother have about 1 GB shared between us now, and that just happened recently. Until now, I was pretty much using a 200MB/month (or was it 250... whatever) plan, like I said in my last post. 200MB/month gets raped fast, even trying to use it minimally. Daily usage is pretty much impossible with that little per month. 200/30 is about 6.7 megs maximum per day. That's about 2 songs in Pandora.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Heisenberg420:
I'd try flashing another ROM. Make a nandroid and try aokp, cm10, or slimbean. Its worth a try. I haven't been on the stock ROM since July and I've never had a problem with WiFi.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jethro650:

Hey everyone. I currently have a version of CleanROM on my HTC rezound and I have been wanting to switch to MiUi for some time now. Whenever I try to change to MiUi the install goes flawlessly but then the CleanROM boot screen is still there and MiUi is not on my phone. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!:laugh:
[HTC Rezound] nolimit78:
What recovery are you using? S-on or off? Are you wiping before flashing?
[HTC Rezound] GrayBoltWolf:
Yep, sounds like failure to wipe.

You should always wipe everything (except certain SD card folders) before a ROM flash.
[HTC Rezound] Jesko_:
how do i know which recovery im using? s-on or s-off?

EDIT: I have s-on
[HTC Rezound] trickster2369:
Assuming you have a custom recovery.

Wipe data/factory reset

Wipe cache

Wipe dalvik cache

Wipe boot

Wipe system

Flash chosen Rom

Use fastboot to flash kernel

Should be good to go.
[HTC Rezound] platinumthomas:
The same thing happened to me. I couldn't get any other ROM to work after installing Clean ROM 4.3 except Clean ROM 4.3. It drove me crazy. The only ROM that would work was CounterShrike. But my battery on CM9 was terrible compared to Clean ROM. I decided to try ViperRez and it actually is running. I've flashed many ROMs on other phones. The only thing I can think is that I'm still S-on with this phone, like you. You might want to try CounterShrike.

tl;dr - Follow the steps everyone always posts and try CounterShrike
[HTC Rezound] Jesko_:
Thanks for all the help guys. Does anyone know how to get s off?
[HTC Rezound] Max725:
Go "http://unlimited.io/juopunutbear.htm"here, read the directions, download the necessary files according to your Rezound hardware version, and use the Windows tool along with the 'wire trick' to get S- Off.

Make sure you read and understand the directions - the process involved a temporary brick (the wire trick), and hboot modifications, which could potentially cause a permanent brick if they go wrong.

Hey,

I have updated my Samsung Focus to Windows Phone 7.8 following steps and ROM mentioned here

After upgrade, the phone has become too slow. I could live with that. BUT, the 'Call Answer' button when a call comes is causing problems, no matter how many times I click it, the call is not answered.

Did any one face these problems.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] Heartbreak:
I can't recommend these cases enough. I loved the Slim for my Galaxy Nexus. A very well designed case with minimal bulk. I doubt it offers the most protection but for those looking for just a little extra protection, this is the way to go.

http://www.rearthusa.com/google-nexus-4-ringke-slim-case

EDIT: says it releases on the 30th but I just got a shipping notification from Amazon. Fluke or awesome? Not sure.

EDIT 2: Just got shipping notification. it is in Texas. 11/29/12
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FLNexus:
had a rearth slim on my nexus s and was pretty satisfied with it. I don't even have my N4 yet but I'm tempted to order at that price

edit: just realized its for preorder
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Jaevlar:
Also preordered the matte black case and screen protector. If this is as good as my Slim case for my Gnex it's going to be a good investment :good:
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Chad_Petree:
I wish the case covered the whole bezel, the top and bottom are exposed :( :mad:

Is the white one matte or glossy? i really cant tell from the pictures
[Nexus 4 Accessories] elliot.newnham:
These cases are minimal drop protection, perfect for the minimalist, not so good for a 6 foot drop. (Although you will be surprised what a little bit of material can do!)

If you want something minimal, (a little bigger than Rearth, but not otterbox) look at the Dizitronic TPU cases. http://tpu-cases.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=46_76
[Nexus 4 Accessories] myorks1127:
Ordered
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Heartbreak:
I had the white one for my GNex and it was glossy white. I really hope this one is matte white.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Chad_Petree:
Yeah with the galaxy s iii now they have glossy white and matte white, that's why I have no idea if this is matte or glossy, i really hope is matte :)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Heartbreak:
Agreed. Glossy was to glossy. Lol

[Nexus 4 Accessories] dyndragon:
Agh, why did they make it protect the sides and not the top and bottom like the GN slim case....Maybe because it was so hard to remove the case, heh.

I'm not sure if my information is entirely accurate - but the girl I talked to said that once they generate a shipping label - it would show up on amazon as shipped... However, the product itself wont be shipped until the 30th.

Ordered.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] trident167:
It's a gorgeous looking case but as mentioned before, the top and bottom part of the bezel is open.

Someone needs the same make a case where there's an opening in the back so we can show off the Nexus logo.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] PnkPwrRngr:
I picked one up as a temporary case. I'd really like to have the back shown off though, so I'll probably replace this with the bumper when that is available.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Jin486:
So I got my case yesterday and it was creaking so I took the case off my phone and applied pressure to bend it inwards. Overall it is pretty nice for a plastic hard shell case but there are some design flaws that caught my attention. The chrome edge on the top and bottom is still exposed leaving it to scratch because it is pretty soft metal that is prone to dents as mentioned in other posts. Although this could be what the company wanted to show off some of the phone's beauty, I do not find it a major disappointment. As an industrial design major I closely looked at the feel of it when I held it in my hand. I would agree with people that a soft rubber feel would have been nice to compete with soft gel cases. There is a cheap feel to it when you hold it and the edges around the screen seem quite sharp even if though they rounded it a bit. When I am using the phone and gliding my fingers over. I cant help but notice something is poking in my hand.To me, I do not mind covering the pattern on the back of the phone as long there is still a slim comfortable feeling to the phone. For the price of 10 dollars and decent customer service I might stick with this case until everyone gets their bumpers and possibly getting it cheaper. Now I would like a good screen protector. I've never tried the tempered glass screen protectors before but I kind of want to try it out when they come out with them
[Nexus 4 Accessories] ssskom:
nice! still whether or not to get this case...my issue is it doesnt cover the bezel...the clear TPU that I have covers it perfectly. bought a 2nd (black) & plan to cut the back of the case ala the bumper case..

Do you think they'll let us keep the defective cases? I have a DIY project I want to do to them
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Jin486:
I asked them that but they didn't reply back to me but they told me this

I went ahead and sanded the edge of the case so it is comfortable to hold. Used some extra fine sand paper. Amazing how a little sanding made it feel better. Now I don't have much problem with the case. What were you planning to do with your DIY project?
[Nexus 4 Accessories] FLNexus:
Doubtful, but you never know. I hope they at least let me keep it until I receive the new one, I need some kind of protection lol

[Nexus 4 Accessories] slopokdave:
I requested the refund today on Amazon and Rearth already refunded me, however in Amazon credit. Which is fine, I'm assuming I get to keep the cases.

Now to wait on Nillkin from a slow boat overseas. My next hope. I had a couple of these on my GSIII also and they were EXCELLENT.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Hatebreeder5150:
Got mine just now, overall its worth the $10 i paid for it. It doesn't protect the screen at all bit the sides and back are protected and that's better than nothing. I will still order a nexus 4 bumper when they decide that they've built a big enough frenzy that they can now start selling them again. Mine fits snug without any tape or bending. no creaking sound however i feel that if this was to fall out of my lap while getting out of my truck onto pavement it would probably get pretty banged up. Overall, better than nothing but not the case i would want as a permanent safety solution.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] bscotth:
Micro-review!

Got the case today! Unfortunately mine also has a loose fitting. Kind of a bummer but I just e-mailed their support team.

Anyway, looseness aside, I'm really liking the case. It looks very nice as well as having a minimalist feel. The main gripe I have is that I wish the sides came up a little higher, just to allow setting the phone face down on a flat surface without any contact with the screen. Here are some pictures. I tried to capture how the sides are flush with the screen.

Also, after about 10 minutes of usage, I realized the back seems to attract fingerprints. The last two pictures are of my attempt to demonstrate the fingerprint grasping abilities of this case.

Hope this helps! :)
[Nexus 4 Accessories] tysj:
The case does lift the screen of a surface, albeit about a 1mm. The lips on the side are pretty much flush with the screen, which is nice since it kinda retains the curved sides of the screen, but the corners are the points where the case lifts up the phone up a bit.

[Nexus 4 Accessories] whooda:
Why is everyone returning it? Mine was clicking, so I grabbed where it was loose and pulled it in about 1cm and held it there for about 1min. Then put it back. I had to do it one more time above and below the volume buttons and now it fits perfect.

I however do not like the bottom of the case.. I place a finger under the phone (where the charge port is) and use it while using the phone. It is sharp and digs into my finger, I have taken sand paper to the edges and it is better but still not good enough.

I would much rather have this until the bumper is back in stock than going around without one.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] :
Could you explain this more? The how to fix it part.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] crazeco:
Its not complicated. You just physically bend the edge of plastic. Bend it firmly inward on volume side so that the plastic moves toward the inside of the case. Hold the bend for 20-30 seconds. You may have to do this twice. The phone will now fit snugly.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] sotorious:
How do you get this damn thing off
[Nexus 4 Accessories] immunityx:
Yup I did this and the case fits perfectly now.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] :
Sorry, didn't mean to imply it's complicated. Just not working for me.
[Nexus 4 Accessories] Jin486:
I bent it in with quite a bit of force until I saw the sides going in at a diagonal angle. Then I popped my phone in and it looked good. Try bend at each edge. If that doesnt work then I supposed just wait to get your replacement
[Nexus 4 Accessories] :
AH ha!

Yeah, you need to bend it pretty fiercely. But once it's there, it snaps in :)

Thanks for the pro-tip!
