But it is still a ridiculous amount of money to pay for an insurance policy on an item that costs only $550. You are paying half the cost of the device for insurance. I also get extended warranty, accidental loss and damage warranty from my Visa card when I purchase things on it.

My phone's been stolen along with my entire laptop bag in a smash & grab out of my car in the past too. All of the items stolen were covered under my car insurance. So I just cannot understand paying that much for a warranty, its a tremendous scam and HUGE profit for the retailer.
[AT&T LG Optimus G] DraginMagik:
it may be a scam...then again, most insurance policies are scams designed to benefit the provider. however, most folks that i know who have purchased a warranty have made claims on it.

how long does visa provide warranty services? a full 90 days? woohooo! and most policies only cover up to $500, which is less than the cost of our phone.

comparing the value two vastly different types of insurance coverage based solely on the monthly cost is just plain silly on your part. insurance costs are "supposedly" based on the likelihood of claims being made against a policy and the payout associated. chances are, that you're much more likely to make a claim for a lost or damaged phone than you are for house or car. why? cause for house or car the cops gotta come out and the insurance adjuster and papers and photos taken and if you're found to be a liar, then you get charged with insurance fraud (which is a bad thing). but the likelihood that you'll drop your phone on the concrete, sit on it, have it stolen, leave it someplace or have the battery crap out on you are pretty high and no police reports or investigations are required. AND since our phones have non-replaceable batteries, i'd bet that a fair number of folks who get insurance will also have a new phone in 18-20mths.

I have done this a number of times and I know it works. I got a new phone GS3-T999. I want to insatll CWM and add a custom ROM. I go to Odin, I find my CWM.tar file, I run it and the phone reboots. NO Custom recovery, but stock recovery

The custom binary counter shows 3 (cause I ran it three times BECAUSE IT WASN'T WORKING)... and custom for Binary and Status.

I'm frustrated and have no idea what to do. This phone is new and did the OTA JB update.

Does the JB Stock ROM have something to do with this?

My question, what do I have to do the get my Custom Recovery so I can install .zip from SD card and get my custom ROM on the phone.

Why is no one responding to this? Does no one have a clue about what I've said? The question I've asked? I need some help. I'm losing my mind here.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cobraboy85:
Use chains Odin root method in the original dev section

After you doc that, download clockwork mod touch from their site. The .img file not the .tar Odin version.

Put the img file on your internal SD card and name it cwm.img.... don't put it in a folder or anything. Just on the root of your SD card.

Download terminal emulator from market and open it up.

Type "su" without quotes and hit enter.

Grant it root access.

Type "dd if=/sdcard/cwm.img of=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/recovery" without quotes again and hit enter

Then type "reboot recovery" again without quotes and hit enter
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Bellooch:
Thank you for that.

I went a different route.

I installed ICS. THIS worked.

Installing CWM on the GS3-T999 with JB won't work. SO, I went to what I knew did work and that was ICS.

Did an install, a factory reset and then added CWM. BANG. Done.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] cobraboy85:
No that was my point, is to help you get what you wanted - jelly bean with cwm... flash stock Odin jelly bean then follow the method I previously described. Success.

CM7 is the most stable.
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] Fallen_Knight:
thank you sir...

does all cm7 features work?? and hd games supported?
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] ast00:
All features are working, HD games are not OK, because we have Armv6 processor, and we need Armv7 for most HD games. But you can look around the the themes and apps section, there are some ported games for our Mini.

Hello guys, i have a cm7 on my mini, I see the new releases, and i have a doubt

Whats the diference about roms Nightly and tass????

thanks

Other question

have no cm9 rom stable yet?

edit here:

I was reading this topic

the cm9 made by thewhisp is stable...
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] RayQ1223:
I guess nightly was something that wasn't stable yet and tass is stable.

Is the official one better or the squadzone one was stable? Squadzone has many features but there's alot that mini can't support
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] AfonsoADR:
cm7 is stable

cm9 isnt stable , cm9 by whisp is based on stable source , but on mini isnt all stable cause isnt oficial .

cm10 isnt stable yet.

Observation : cm10 sources are stable .

10.1 not
[Samsung Galaxy Mini] shravankanagokar:
I am using Squadzone version and it is stable. No problems at all. There are many features which aren't there in the tass version (soft buttons, tablet tweaks, etc).

[General Questions and Answers] brewsterj944:
I have the same phone and i had the same problem that i couldn't find a way to root the thing but after digging for two weeks i finally found a flashable .zip file that roots your phone and installs superuser and gives u root access. I have attached the file all u have to do is download it, put it on your sd card(not in any folder) and then boot into recovery. From there just go to install zip from sd card -------> choose zip from sd card--------->> then just select the file attached then go to yes and it will install the package and root your phone and there ya go!!! Enjoy your rooted phone! (btw if u want to update to ics i can help u out with that) :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cralis:
Hi all,

I am selling my S2, and would like to a) get rid of the triangle, and b) go back to a stock rom. Is this a simple process, and maybe there's a guide?

I am downloading I9100XWLPW_I9100XSALP6_XSA.zip | 695.6 MB – is that an OK file?

I am also downloading GT-I9100_XEU_I9100XWLP7_I9100XXLPS_I9100XEUPL5.7z

Which would be better?

I'm in Australia, but it was a UK sourced, unlocked phone to begin with.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cosmic Blue:
extract and flash using Odin 1900XWLP7 rom to go back to stock and then use trianle away which could be found in this forum to reset the counter.

after flashing and using triangle away, do not forget to go recovery and wipe the cache, go to advance and wipe daavik cache and do a factory reset to remove all personal information and apps.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Cralis:
I am rid of triangle, thanks to dongle method. Now, to find out where to get XWLP7 from...

Or is that "GT-I9100_XEU_I9100XWLP7_I9100XXLPS_I9100XEUPL5.7z" that I have already downloaded?

I am going to us Mobile Odin, which I think takes the full package (Modem.. etc)

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ologn:
I have a Asus tf700 (infinity). I have been less than pleased with the browser experience. I would like to know how the Nexus 10 compares.

If any of you N10 owners could load the page below and post your experience, i would really appreciate it.

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/b8/archive/2012/05/18/creating-the-windows-8-user-experience.aspx

Wait for the page to completely load then and start scrolling. Does the browser keep up with your scrolling? If so how fast can you scroll?

My tf700 cannot keep up with anything more than an a really slow scroll. My laptop has no problem keeping up with any scroll speed.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 404 ERROR:
Nope. Doesn't keep up at all using AOSP browser. What a ginormous webpage though.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EniGmA1987:
I would just like to pint out that a laptop and a tablet are VERY different things. The performance gap is quite large. THink of it like this: Have you seen benchmarks for an Intel Atom processor vs say, a Core 2 Duo? A Core2 in itself is a quite old processor and slow compared to any modern processor already, yet the Core 2 smashes the Atom in performance. Now look at the Atom vs the newest, latest and greatest ARM A15. They are about tied overall, with the A15 coming out on top by a little bit in the more common end-user tasks. So if the A15 barely holds its own against an incredibly slow Intel processor, how do you expect a tablet to keep up with a laptop that has an actual "desktop grade" processor in it?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 404 ERROR:
As much as I want to support your argument, I'm currently typing this on an old Intel Atom processor (which the A15 destroys). I opened that web page and it scrolls perfectly fine at any speed.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fromako:
It's hard to judge what your poor experience is without an example. In my opinion the AOSP browser on my N10 keeps up great at a skim-able scrolling pace (say you're scrolling through 1-2 screens worth of posts at a time).

If you're just flicking down the page as fast as you can at an un-viewable pace then yeah the browser goes mostly blank during the scrolling but then is pretty snappy to display the current page once it arrives at the scroll destination.

Dolphin w/ Jetpack can inconsistently keep up with farther scrolls but it's with low res image until it fully catches up.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gakirby:
I'm currently rooted but running stock ROM and chrome. I can scroll much faster than I can possibly read and it seems pretty smooth. Having owned the Infinity prior to this device, I understand how poorly the ASUS tablet browses the web. The performance of Chrome is night and day between these two tablets. I owned my infinity for two months and nothing I did ever made web browsing as enjoyable as it is for me on the Nexus 10.

Sent from my Nexus 10
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ologn:
Guess i should have been a bit more clear. The only reason i mentioned my laptop was to offer proof that there is no error in the page that might otherwise slow the scrolling of the page.

Also if anyone knows good test pages, and can post their experience with said page, it would be helpful also.

I'm not wanting put down any tabby, i just want to know if the browsing experience on the n10 is better than the tf700. I'm a power web surfer on my tabby and i want the best possible experience. If the n10 does it better i will be switching. Right now, with a custom ROM and browser2ram the tf700 is good for browsing but the page above has problems. If the n10 doesn't have problems, well then its just one more reason to switch.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 404 ERROR:
Oh wow. Chrome actually does something right. I just tested the webpage with Chrome and while you do see it rendering the fonts, it does it before you can actually read it (basically before it stops scrolling). Interesting!

It's completely readable with Chrome at its fastest scrolling (the scrolling is kind of slow compared to AOSP browser though).
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 95Z28:
Can't comment on nexus 10 but on the 7 I can scroll very quickly with stock chrome. Only goes blank if I start flicking through nonstop, but for scrolling the browser kept up at a pace far above "skimming through" speed. So I would imagine the 10 would provide an least an equal experience using same browser.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fromako:
I can confirm that about Chrome as well. It does limit scrolling pace vs the other browsers (still faster than you could interpret) but it does keep the text displayed at all times at a lower resolution. It converts to the beautiful crispness quickly at scroll destination.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EniGmA1987:
my mistake. I must have been remembering an ARM9 or something.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 404 ERROR:
It's cool. It's understandable which is why I said "As much as I want to support your argument."

AOSP browser sucks at something that Chrome doesn't. I'm thinking it has to do with HTML5. Anyway, obviously there isn't a perfect browser out there, but I would recommend Chrome which isn't THAT bad as people say it is if you do get the N10. Judging from how well it loaded that page, it's doing something right.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dalingrin:
Can scroll as fast as possible @60fps and no checker boarding on Dolphin Beta. On Chrome scrolling is perfect for all but the fastest scrolling. Both perform much better on the Nexus 10 than they did on my infinity.

Att thinks it's worth 200 but we all know it isn't. I had to pay the 200 once :( they thought i had an iPhone (ex phone) and we said no it was an infuse. And they replaced the infuse. But that was the truth. Not sure if they could see my device history. You could borrow a friends phone and attach it to make it appear true.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] csandman1977:
There's a thought but my entire device history with at&t IS the infuse. That and everyone I know is on Verizon. I need to make new friends.

Or I'll go target practice. One or the other.

Only thing I know for sure is that donations for devs will be in affect shortly.
