I have been really happy with Google Voice. SMS daily.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Groid:
I like Google Voice as well for basic texting over wifi. But, you can't do mms or use the short codes in place of phone numbers.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rolandh:
The problem with that is you don't get replies to it, I used to use the Orange version when I was on Orange years ago.

Roland
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rolandh:
That's Ok as I tend to take my Sony Live Key out with me for Google Music and just in case I need to make and receive a phone call, but texting seems a pain on the 4.2" screen of my Sony Xperia Arc S compared to the larger screen of the N7.

The Dev has done a good visual job with Tablet Talk as the Dialer and Messaging look like the ICS/JB Stock ones and the quick reply popup is so convenient.

I'd love to see Google Voice come to the UK as I'd use it instead of my phone in the house then use it to reply to any replies that I get when I'm out of WiFi coverage and only have 3G coverage.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rolandh:
Does the N7 support hands free headsets for the likes of using Google Voice or is it only headphones and the Ok device mics for that?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestD0411:
I have a problem on my Galaxy S3, running android 4.1.1 on Vodafone network in the UK. It is not rooted.

I want to make sure the phone is unlocked before buying a sim card for use in France

Using the stock dialer, "*#7465625#" gives me "ussd code running" followed by "Unknown command".

Looking around elsewhere, others have blamed it on Mobile Tracker, which as far as I can see, I don't have. The only solution I have seen is a factory reset, which is a scary prospect for me, not having any idea what that entails. And then reinstalling apps one by one until the culprit is found. I have also seen comments about ussd security issues. I am slowly heading out of my depth here (I know my way round windows quite well, but phones are unknown territory for me,).

I am hoping some clever souls on this forum might be able to help. Is this a known, and solved, problem? Or is a factory reset my best bet?

If I have to reset, I know where the reset is in the menu system - on the same page as a checked box saying backup. So...does does the back up happen automatically or when I press reset or have I got it completely wrong? If not, which files do I need to save away from the phone? What happens to things like contacts I can remove the external SD card, so that won't be an issue. How do I reinstall the apps, particularly the ones I have already paid for?

I have spent most of the afternoon tried to get a handle on this and my head is spinning now.

Any help at all, would be very warmly received.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maf23:
1st solution : root your phone, very easy procedure then you can flash the same stock ROM from sammobile.com to become unrooted again without wiping/resetting your phone.

2nd solution: download APPSAVER from market for free, then you can save all the applications you have downloaded but not the DATA (for example you can save the game itself but not the progress you have achieved)

as for the contacts, go to the contacts folder - menu import/export - export to usb storage and voila all your contacts will be written in a single file that you can import after you reset your phone

as for SMS, you can download "SMS Backup & Restore" from market for free to backup then restore your SMSs

after you perform the above, go to Settings - Back up and reset - Factory data reset and your phone will be back as you received it.

On the other hand if the phone is locked you can always unlock it using Voodoo S3 on the Play Store, it can sim-unlock your device if you're rooted of course.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuestD0411:
Great reply, thank you!

Rooting...a bit loth to do that while still under guarantee and at my level of experience. One day I will get hold of an old phone and try it with that first.

Appsaver - what a brilliant app, thank you again. If it is one particular app that is the problem (and that is the sense that I get from elsewhere), then I can use this to back up my apps, uninstall them all, check for the ussd error. If it has disappeared, then reinstall apps one at a time until the error reappears. If it hasn't disappeared, then I can go the reset route, after backing up contacts and SMS.

Thank you so much for your help. :)

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] applepie8:
Alright, here is a strange strange problem...

earlier I accidentally formatted /system (silly me :l) , and after that the phone could not boot, there was no bootloader, not even the Galaxy i9003 that normally appears before the bootloader.

so, I used odin to flash bagaria-09.GT-I9003_PDA.tar, along with the latona.pit file.

now, I can access recovery, but I cannot flash any zip file. I have tried stock gb rom, and it's the same- giving a message "Installation Aborted"

until now the Galaxy i9003 screen still doesn't appear at all

this is a really strange problem I have never encountered before... I hope that the experienced people here will be able to help me with this. Deepest thanks! :)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] chongns:
The CWM recovery have a option of reboot download, in advance option.

Once your get download mode than flash pit than flash XXKPQ
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] NeverBackDown:
Yes. I guess you can use CWR only to flash custom roms but you cannot flash stock firmwares using it.

You need to go to download mode and then flash pit, xxkpe using Odin and then the required firmware base and custom rom.

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] magn2o:
Without another unit to reference, I have to think something is up with my vibration motor. With haptic enabled on button press, I can't feel anything. I hear a very low, almost inaudible sound that could be the motor trying to work -- but I feel nothing.

How's your haptic response? Is it very pronounced or almost unnoticeable? I want to say I felt it much more during initial setup..

Also when switching the ringer from silent to vibrate, I do feel it (and hear it) but it sounds almost like a dying motor; very weak and unhealthy.

Am I off base here?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Puzzlegirl:
I've had my N4 for 3 days now and haptic response is as strong as it was at the start. I am constantly pleased by it since it was poor on my GNex! Vibration in silent mode is great as well so no unhealthy sound here. Sorry to be so happy with mine!

Thanks :) I had a kernal but it was the stock image that was wrong that I guess shut down the internal storage. I tried *only* flashing the kernal first but the encryption failed error continued, only after flashing the stock rom did it go away.

Now it is back to rooted and running the hybrid rom :P

There aren't any major changes. In fact, a cursory glance shows it as basically the same as the 4.2 Google apps version except that now you can delete items in your Wishist and you get a new screen when apps are installing. More than likely there are more behind-the-scenes changes as well.

remove the battery for a while and try to boot again. If nothing happens, remove battery, reinsert and this time press vol down + power + home for a while till you see the galaxy note logo, and leave it. connect to PC and check if odin sees it. If yes, try to flash the kernel again and check, if not then flash a rom.

Maybe you should try different USB ports and/or another USB cable.

Best results come with Samsung original usb cable plugged on a USB port directly soldered on the motherboard (no hubs nor other accessories).

Also you may try to uninstall kies and reinstall it to have drivers working properly. Don't forget to close completely kies when using Odin.(check in windows taskmanager and kill any kies related process)

Please Follow the instructions in order :

Make sure you have Philz Kernel v3.1 for XXLS7 or Hydracore Kernel in hand ( both are brick-free)

1. Remove and Re-insert the battery.

2. Go to CWM recovery by 3-button combo [ Vol Up + Home + Power ]

3. Flash Philz 3.1 or Hydracore.

4. Flash Rocket ROM.

5. Reboot.

Note : Flashing Rocket ROM would install Philz Kernel by default. Please do not flash any kernel once ROM is flashed.

Note 2 : There is no compatible kernel except Philz at this moment. So refrain yourself from flashing other kernels.

If i am not mistaken our heros work at 576 MHz by default. Changing the value to a higher one could damage the phone, as greater frequencies require more cooling and our heros were not made to deal with that.

Overclocking also means a faster battery drain.
