I have talked with con247 about this awhile ago and you should tell everyone that this will not work with the international galaxy sIII the configuration of your AT&T sIII is completely different to our international sIII. Our splash image can only be changed when compiling the kernel i will request a mod to remove this as there is no chance it will work

im what Willis was talking about

[Galaxy S III Themes and Apps] sharingan92:
And please stop fishing for thanks all devices are configured differently so it most likely wont work for all sIII devices as con247 made the script for the AT&T sIII not the variants there is also no need to go round posting it in every sIII forum you can find just post it in android general themes and apps at least then your not creating clutter

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Wolfygang:
Why do some rom installation guides say to not touch the device for ten minutes reboot and wait one minute?

I've never heard of that before
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] -Falco:
This is do the device can properly turn on everything before first use. Ex.

You install a new Rom and use it right away, and one day the vibration keeps on going and not stopping. (Probably a bad example but oh well.) It could be because you didn't wait the proper amount of time on your first boot. (Or it is a bad Rom and should get Jedi knight 5 or Jedi mind trick x3)

Hi,

I want to use sms sync with Android and Exchange. When I configure my Exchange account I only can sync mails, contacts and calender but not taks and sms. Do you have any suggestions? Could the reason be the Motorola stock ROM? The mail configuration states only "E-Mail", "Google" or "Corporate Sync" as configurable options for account synchronisation.

Regards,

Andy
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] GETCASHMONEY:
I just got my note this Week, and I love it, but I had a quick question. When I qm trying to write accurately,the pencil will go crazy on me, effectively giving my letters tails, Is this normal? Should I exchange? It doesn't depend on the location of where Im writing (from what I can tell)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] GETCASHMONEY:
I should also mention that this occurs regardless of the program, I have tried 3.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] BarryH_GEG:
It's not normal. It could be the display but it could also be the S-Pen. I got my S-Pen wet and even after it dried what I'd write on the display was sometimes off. Whichever it is, if you can exchange it, you should.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 General] GETCASHMONEY:
Thank you. I'll probably go tonight and exchange it. Glad I bought from Sam's club instead of Craigslist!

XDA rule 12:

12. Using the work of others.

If you are developing something that is based on the work of another Member, you MUST first seek their permission, and you must give credit to the member whose work you used. If a dispute occurs about who developed / created a piece of work, first try to settle the matter by private message and NOT in open forum. If this fails then you may contact a moderator with clear evidence that the work was created by you.

Convincing evidence will result in copied work being removed. If there is no clear evidence you created the work then in the spirit of sharing all work will remain posted on the forums.

As an addition, developers have the right to hold exclusivity over their work for as long as it is deemed necessary by the dev or freely share it. However, if the work is claimed as exclusive, it must remain as such. No selective sharing will be allowed (ie allowing certain people to use it and not others). Should the dev decide to start sharing the work with others, the work automatically becomes fair game for all to use.

In regards to permissions, same rules remain for this but if permission was already given, unless there is a very valid reason, it cannot be revoked (same applies to major updates on the work). Under that same premise, permissions cannot be denied unless the work is exclusive or under severe circumstances.

In plain English: If you want to keep your work exclusive, go for it. However, if you are going to share your work, do it fairly.

These rules apply to all software posted on XDA (including but not limited to ROMs, RUUs, apps, games, kernels, themes, icons, etc) unless that software comes with a license that waives these rules.

[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] platodd:
Purchased new Nexus 7 32gb with mobile data, frankly I considered it the best tablet I own (I own 5 including an iPad 2 and a 16gb Nexus 7). Suddenly today while listening to some music the audio became super static-ey , like a busted stereo speaker. My replacement is on the way but I wondered if any else has had this experience.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wtgserpant:
Same here ......... Had to get my first n7 replaced because of the same issue!
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] platodd:
So maybe we just got defective units, because my first N7 was a 16gb and its still working great. I just upgraded for more storage and mobile data which made it almost perfect. They will probably break down and give it an SD card slot and a rear camera and it will reign supreme in the tablet world.
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androph:

Not a big deal though...replaced with new with no issues.

Yeah! Got replacement Nexus 7 32gb in hand, hope it is as sound as my original 16gb. I think this is my favorite tablet, OK, I love this device, OK ... I said it. I wonder how many others got slightly defective units, and if they got a solid replacement. I don't care if I have to send for 5 of these until I get one that's right. :)

The tablet mode is sweet but man it can be hard on old eyes viewing the small fonts.

Yes it is. I had same problem so went back to reg phone mode.

However, did you set system font size to huge? That helped and made it possible to use tablet mode.

If you have ROM Toolbox you can also substitute larger system fonts. But sometimes the spacing gets messed up when you do that.

I do have the Rom Toolbox Pro installed for blocking some ads; using fonts and additional features.

I just went back to the regular phone mode at 192 dpi. The Tablet mode put the Google Music widget directly behind the date/time widget on the lock screen.

All in all this Rom is the bomb. I will be glad when the Cam corder is working.

Most the time my GPS works good, but sometimes not so much. This morning it wasn't locking on and I got tired of waiting so turned on portable hotspot and linked my nexus 7 which locked immediately. Oh well nexus 7 props perfectly between my dash and windshield anyway, so it works excellently as a navigation device.

Gotta be something screwy then, GPS on my S was so bad it said I was consistently on the other side of town...my gnex gets my location within a few feet in seconds. Much better IMO.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ECOTOX:
If the GPS on your GNex doesn't paste your vibrant then your device is faulty. I get locks withing 30sec and i still have a vibrant which gets a lock in about 3 min with accuracy of like 200m and Gnex accuracy within 1-5m
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] woody296:
Very solid gps for me, much better than my epic touch. Locks quickly. No complaints.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eksasol:
There are fixes that can be done. Putting small amount of solder on the GPS antenna gold contacts and flashing the latest GPS fixes, one of the Vibrant I had actually gets better signal than my Galaxy Nexus as a result, though the Nexus still lock slightly faster. Here is the link to the JellyBean patch for the Vibrant: http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33844820

Also update your baseband to the latest version.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] abescully:
I agree.

My previous phone was a Nexus One. I also had a t959 vibrant. My current phone is an i9250. Yes, the i9250 has "working" GPS compared to the Vibrant but it doesn't compare well to my nexus one.

During navigation, the nexus one will show me on the correct side of the road with an arrow pointing in the right direction. The i9250 will often show me on the wrong road (or sometimes neighborhood) and frequently thinks I've wandered off and changed direction.

While sitting at an intersection, my i9250 will frequently think I've suddenly made a u-turn or started driving. This does not happen with the nexus one.

I can not seem to get a fix on the i9250 without a data connection. This was a problem for me recently when I went to canada for 2 days. I can get a fix with or without a data connection on my nexus one. I've been an hour from cell service and could still use the nexus one for directions and google sky.

Overall, the i9250's GPS works poorly enough that I've given up using it for navigation, especially in unfamiliar places. I used my nexus one for navigation anywhere I went. I now just get directions on my i9250 and memorize them.

I did a side-by-side navigation test with my galaxy nexus and a friend's verizon galaxy s iii recently. The galaxy s iii had the same problems that my galaxy nexus has. Maybe it's a problem common to samsung phones?

I REALLY miss the in-call noise cancellation that the nexus one had. The galaxy nexus picks up everything around me. My friend chris has a galaxy nexus as well. It's very difficult to have a conversation with him if we are both in noisy environments. This also bugs me a little extra because the specs for the phone listed dual mic for noise cancellation, but it does not work. The other day my fiancee asked me what that loud ticking was. It took me a second, but it was my car's blinker clicking noise! She said it was loud!

Another friend has had his nexus 4 for a week now. It definitely has working in-call noise cancellation. I want to compare it to my nexus one, but it's a million times better than the i9250. the nexus 4 also generally trounces my i9250 in a dumb time-to-fix gps test. I'll post back here if I get a chance to do a side-by-side navigation test.

All that said, I still love my galaxy nexus. I've had it for exactly one year now and it does not feel old. The GPS is my biggest problem with the Galaxy Nexus, but it still kinda works. Then comes noise cancellation, but that's more a problem for the other end of the line. Then comes the recent liblights bug in 4.2, but that will get fixed. That's all I can complain about.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] eksasol:
Well the N4 use both aGPS and GLONASS so it will get better signal, I think there isn't a need of comparison due to that except to know how much it's improved. S3 have GLONASS as well and I didn't have any problem with it.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
I think if your location is drastically different from the last known location, the GPS goes all wonky.

Happens to me when i travel into another country, the GPS refuses to lock and i have no data connection. but after a while of trying, it started locking again, but when i come back to my home country, it refuses to lock properly even with data connection, seems like my AGPS is broken.. Should be ok after i flash CM10.1 when it comes out;p
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] JediDru:
Dude what he said. I can't believe they sold that thing. My very first smart phone. Due to Samsung's pathetic update procedure I will never own a non-nexus and will always modify them. Thanks Samsung?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] c0LdFire:
I've had a couple of different Galaxy Nexuses, the last of which had horrible issues with the GPS. My first one on Verizon was perfect and locked within 3-4 seconds, even indoors. Then my first play store one was similar. I ended up having to RMA that one for screen issues, though, and the replacement was a nightmare. It'd lose the GPS lock on an open road without a building or tree for a mile. I'd say for every 1 minute I used Google Maps, the GPS was only able to lock for 5-6 seconds of it. Navigation was painful at the very least.

TLDR: Consider RMA'ing your phone. This is probably a common issue, Samsung uses flaky GPS chips.

Luckily, my Nexus 4 locks even quicker then the Galaxy Nexus ever did (< 2 seconds) and has no such issues.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beren28:
This. So much this.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jzero88:
Funny because every HTC phone I tried had flawless GPS. Always within 5 - 10 sec. Vibrant sucked I had it. CM made it usable. Using stock 4.2.1 and GPS sucks. CM10 makes our usable again. I'm starting to think it software related. Plus as a consumer there is a reasonable expedition for products top work reasonably as expected. I'm sure I'd Wi-Fi had issues there would be an outcry. Doesn't matter what part of the phone is faulty. It's still BS
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ttabbal:
I just tested it indoors, 17sec to lock, 16ft reported accuracy. 11 sats used for fix.

That's far from crap performance for gps. I've had other phones lock faster, mostly HTC, but this is quite good. I use it for navigation all the time. It works well, and holds the lock in even adverse conditions. Better than any other Samsung phone I've had, and beats most standalone gps receivers from a hot start.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] klobkelosh:
GPS on my vzw gnex is just fine. Locks quickly, generally precise to about 3 meters. Can't really complain for a phone. Want better GPS? But a Bluetooth receiver with WAAS built in.

When I see threads like this I wish people would take the time to learn about how GPS and AGPS work. Most cell phones use AGPS for a near instant lock. The speed of that lock entirely depends on your signal strength and position with relation to cell towers. If you have no service or poor service you'll have no-to-poor precision with GPS. Eventually, the phone will receive ephemeris data from the GPS satellites and will work. Cold start like this could take 20 mins. Now, if you have poor AGPS data the phone will have trouble reconciling your location and typically your position will be shifted.

Take matters into your own hands and download the GPS status app from the market. Anytime you have an issue, download your own AGPS data. If you want more tweaking control, track down a copy of the angry GPS app.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jzero88:
