[Nexus 4 General] dobbi10k:
No, that was true for MHL, either the screen had to have a power output on the HDMI cable or you had to connect an external power source. SlimPort however makes this unneccessary, you CAN connect an external power source to charge your phone, but you don't have to.

If I already bought an MHL adapter, I would probably feel apple'd too, got you point, though ;)

The standard is maintained by VESA and it's completely free. However, the HDMI standard still requires fees, which you pay with the cable. A display port adapter could be made way cheaper. But the latter is true, too. All these adapters could be made cheaper.

Yup, forgot to mention an example, the Note 2 for example has it too,ty. I believe I heard about other manufacturers planning to do similar things...

seriously? why do you need to overclock! the galaxy s3 isn't a PC with a water cooling system!!!!!!!!! if you want to overclock, go to the stweaks app and scroll down on the first page. you will find a few sliders for the cpu clock speed. i recommend a MAX of 1.5ghz And tp be safe, slap on a undervolt of 25 or 50 ( just above the sliders) you get the idea.

[Optimus One, P500, V General] HardLight:
Here are tips which will highly extended our P500 battery life​

Haptic Feedback (vibrate when unlocking phone from lockscreen,

dragging apps to desktop, selecting photos in gallery, using some apps or games, etc.)

is a hardware process that uses lot of energy so its big battery drainer.

To disable faptic feedback in CM9 and all ROMs based on it:

Go to Settings>Sound>Quiet Hours>check Enable quiet hours>set start from 00:00 to end 23:59 and check Disable haptic feedback.

It will disable the haptic feedback for all apps. :)

Hardware Buttons Backlight is another battery sucker and I think for most time it's totally useless.

To disable it just flash attached zip.

EDIT: Method with changing value from 255 to 0 in max_brightness manually doesn't work properly,

because it resets to 255 every time restarting the phone.

#!/system/bin/sh
echo 0 >sys/class/leds/button-backlight/max_brightness
chmod444 /system/class/leds/button-backlight/max_brightness

If you have another battery saving tips, please share it to all community ;)

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Miami_Son:
First, your phone OS has to support wifi hotspot connection. Android does, Symbian, not sure. Second, even if your phone supports it your carrier may not without extra fees. AT&T blocks automatic access to the wifi hotspot feature in Android as do others. Fortunately, there are some easy workarounds that can be found via a Google search (I just did this morning and got mine working with my SII).

I know when the EvoLte first came out, it was having problems with assigning ringtones to specific contacts. Then HTC released the maintenance update 2.13.651.1 170RD, whiched fixed the issue. However, I recently performed a factory reset on my phone, and now I am no longer able to assign custom ringtones again.

Has anyone else experienced this issue and/or is there a fix. I cant find a copy of the update to try and re-install it.

BTW I am not rooted, running stock.

I'm not sure I know what you want or need. Why don't you just download it from the play store?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] BeatnikBandit:
yes it is much easier to go to the play store download rom manager and install it through the app its also a nice app to have as i still haven't found a way to rename backups other than using the app as the recovery names them wrong in the current version. Also when it comes to the Tough version IDK if you can do that with the free app i never tried never interested me i just figured its something more to go wrong.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] codeman0624:
I just flashed Clean ROM 5.0, and so far Jelly Bean is great. But I'm very annoyed at the removal of some of the choices for vibrate for notifications. There used to be an option to vibrate only when the phone is in silent mode. Which is exactly what I want. I don't want it to vibrate when I have the volume on, I only want the audible notification. But the newest settings only give me a check box for whether to vibrate or not!

Any thoughts on how I can set things up so that in silent mode, notifications vibrate, but when I turn up the volume, there will be no vibration? Frustrating for JB to have removed flexibility like that!

[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] skadebo:
On my way to school today I noticed a Samsung booth in the middle of a prominent subway station in Montreal (Place Bonaventure). They had the Galaxy Note 2 and Galaxy Note 10.1 on display for people to try out and ask questions. Naturally I asked if they knew when the Jelly Bean update would be coming to Canada and the guy said the following "I think it's rolling out in the USA so it should be coming soon to Canada, but Canada usually gets it after everyone else". Take from that what you will, it's half right.

Hopefully sales of the Note 10.1 are good, encouraging further development from Samsung. I'd really like to see one with better build quality and better note syncing for viewing on a PC.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
Marketing spend is typically a percentage of revenue. Based on their $7.4B in profits in Q3 I'd expect to see a lot more aggressive marketing. Their also supposed to be announcing a rebranding in Q1 2013 that's going to cost over $1B. It's purportedly designed to make them seem less "Korean" and more global while at the same time less cold and more approachable. It's good to be king. ;)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] MNDaveC:
It seems to me that the Note 10.1 marketing is falling off and they are focusing more on the Note 2 phablet.

They really need to get JB on the 10.1 to keep up with the market.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] qnfauf:
I doubt he had any actual info on that statement.

For me, as long as Samsung keeps its promise (JB before the end of the year), I will be happy. To be honest, I am happy with ICS right now and don't have to have JB.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] samir_a:
If you observe Samsung marketing stratergy they will market a product very agresively for a month or two and then they movie on to new product, it happened to S3, Tab2, Note10.1 and then Note2 so that has been their market stratergy for all their products.

What is surprising is for the first time Samsung has rebranded its product that means they want to re market the product as they feel there more potential to it

Hi all,

I'm using FreeGS3 and Widget Locker (as I really like the pure AOSP look/feel.

I just want the vibrate/ringtone.

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk8tracy:
My Droid Incredible 2's volume up button is stuck... I suppose this is a 2-part question:

1. Is it possible to get an exchange with Verizon? Or is there a way I can fix it myself? I got it looked at and they said it's stuck to the motherboard. Anyone with a similar experience?

2. I've been attempting to gain S-OFF and been looking into using tacoroot. But that requires that I reboot from recovery using VolUP + VolDOWN + Power buttons. Is it possible to workaround that with a broken volume button?

Thank you!
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bc13:
The only way you will get an exchange from Verizon is if your phone is still under warranty. I don't know the answer to the second part
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk8tracy:
Thanks bc13! Sorry if this seems like a dumb question, but how do I find out if the phone is still under warranty? How long do warranties last after the date of purchase?
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] bc13:
Verizon has a one year warranty for your phone after that they won't cover anything. If you have phone insurance you could do a claim on it.

Booting into boot loader is only volume down+power no volume up

[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] sk8tracy:
Sorry I should have been more clear. I'm not trying to boot into bootloader. In the Tacoroot procedure from prototype7, there's a step that goes like this:

adb shell /data/local/tacoroot.sh --setup

This will reboot your phone. When you get to a screen with a red exclamation mark, press VolUp+Power until you get to a menu, then press VolUp+VolDown+Power until the phone turns off. Once it is rebooted, continue.​

[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidpod:
My primary smartphone (Yes, I'm an addict with several :) ) is a Galaxy S III.

I bought it upon release from AT&T my carrier of many years. It's been a truly great phone, but now I am extremely interested in buying a Samsung Note II. Upon going into AT&T, spending at least and hour with the Note II, the only concern is a rather disappointing level of touchscreen sensitivity.

Being used to my SGS III, I expected the same touch experience on the Note II. Yet what I did experience was a rather inconsistent level of responsiveness. Sometimes when touching a link to invoke it to open, it would do so, other times it would not respond.

Determined to make sure it was the Note II and not me, I asked to try another activated unit. Long store short, after trying three different Note II's, as well as the store demo SGS III, in every case the SGS III was just like mine... more responsive, and consistent with it recognizing and responding to every command I gave it.

Any feedback, comments or help with this would be greatly appreciated. I really want to buy a Note II, but fear the lack of responsiveness would really be bothersome. Oh... and one final point. If I deliberately zoomed the "unresponsive link" to a larger size, then it responded just fine.

Thanks.
