[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] siemz:
Hello everyone, for a while I'm wanting to create live wallpapers, after weeks of searching and weeks of trying out various things (The LWP creator found on XDA etc) I've figured out all of them are not really working with the latest phone's, and lastest screen resolutions.

So , I was wondering if any one could help me or teach me how to create live wallpapers, for the latest screen resolutions, or just compatible with all.

What I want is to create a "Gif-like" android LWP.

If anyone could help it would be great, like I said before : I looked around a lot and didn't found anything that's up-to date.

Kind regards:good:

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lucbl1:
Recently a friend of mine let a lot of water (okay, actually it was vodka) enter in contact with my phone. I couldn't turn it on. I tried everything, and eventually could turn it. But it would turn itself off sometime later.

And to make things worse, when i opened it, i broke the ribbon cable of the power button.

I don't want to fix my phone (i've bought another one, since my i9000 was getting old), but i want to recover my data from Internal SD. Is there a way to mount it without the phone?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zRaJx:
Sorry, but No

To Be honest, there is no way of recovering this data as you cannot connect your device to a computer.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ctasich:
I am due for an upgrade with Sprint. I am currently on the Evo 4g. There seems to be some good holiday deals on the S3 right now. I was thinking about jumping on one of these. However, after doing some reading it looks like the S4 may not be too far around the corner. Any thoughts on waiting it out or even waiting for the first of the year for some of the new HTC line? I know waiting with a subsidized carrier like Sprint means you're basically losing money, so I'm trying to decide the best course of action.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jacob910:
I would say just get the s3 its an amazing phone I'm running cm10 on it right now and its super fast stable and the battery life is amazing! The s4 most likely won't be out until next summer if you want a major upgrade I would say wait for the galaxy note3 or the nexus5!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ou2mame:
I got mine on black friday so it was impossible to turn down. I had the evo, but it just wasn't cutting it. Rooted and everything stripped out of it, I still couldn't have facebook, google music, google maps, and skype installed at the same time because of storage issues. I really like the s3, and if you can get a good deal on it, you might as well. My gf still has the evo, and she's now eyeing my s3. If you want to wait for the s4, you might as well wait for the s5 or s6, or whatever... My philosophy with tech has always been, what will benefit me the most now, because if you always have in the back of your head that you plan to upgrade, you never will. Do it now, or do it never lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ctasich:
I'm currently leaning toward the upgrade, but I may have just been dealt a blow. I checked with Amazon and they said I'm not eligible for the $50 price because I'm a current customer (despite that I'm up for a two year contract extension). Does anyone else have any experience with this? Is this true?

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] daryllh:
That doesn't make sense. Could you print out price from Amazon and go to best buy for price match?

I could see if they still had premier upgrades after first year but you have fulfilled your 2 year obligation to sprint. You're a free agent now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ctasich:
That's what I figured as well. I haven't really found any information on the internet about people upgrading after a 2-year contract either. Has anyone successfully done so through Amazon or any other retailer? Perhaps I was mistaken when I thought the discounted price applied to me?

Also, will it matter that I am on a SERO plan? Don't want to lose that guy!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] tkepk181:
Best buy is supposed to be having a sale on the Galaxy S3 this Sunday....it'll be $50 in store.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] speeddevil:
Got mine for $30 through Amazon about 3 weeks ago. But I was a new sprint customer.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sponix2ipfw:
Easy call, if you see an outstanding deal on the S3 ($50 or under) then snag one. If a deal doesn't come your way then hold off. I'm on the SGS3 right now and it is a pretty amazing device. I was able to get it for $50 through Sprint on the Black Friday stuff, my wife's SGS3 on the other hand we shelled out $250 for, and we just wish we had waited the extra couple of months *Grin*.. Of course if you are like some and Money isn't an issue Get Both !
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sirlinux03:
Just got mines Today at Best Buy for $49.99. One day sale!!!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] das_webos_transformer:
Got mine black friday, price matched from sams at walmart. Got a $100 gifrcard too. Freakin sweet! Id say get this phone, its gonna be one people still want a year from now. Promise.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] fcramtek:
Get it!!! You won't regret it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CeloCRF:
I also had the original Evo 4G for two years wating on the SIII to come out.

At this point, you might as well wait for the SIV to use your upgrade option. Shop around for deals on SIII online and you might just be able to snag both phones.

It is an amazing phone though. I can say with confidence that i'll keep it until I get a good deal on a SIV, after the first few months after the launch date.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ctasich:
Well after talking with Sprint Employee Account (I'm on a SERO-P plan), they offered me $75 off my bill for the next two months to effectively make the S3 $50. I went ahead and took the plunge! I should have the phone tomorrow.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] enik_fox:
Your still a current customer
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MikesDroid:
I think you made the right choice! You will be really happy with this phone. I rooted mine the first day I had it :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Jordanyme:
I will not buy it because its size.. Im comfortable with my S2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TheSocalGuy79:
Just get the s3. Still a strong selling phone. Stay away from HTC. They tend to stop updates to there phones after they have been out for a short time. I don't think the note3 will be out anytime soon since the note2 just came out. S4 won't be out until sometime next year probably.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TheGreatGonzo:
I decided to go ahead and take the plunge for the S3. I was eligible for the early upgrade and I had the Buy Back program from Best Buy. If I waited for the "next" phone I would have lost the Buy Back. Turned out the S3 was $99 and the Buy Back gave me $130 on my old Epic 4G, so I made out pretty well. Got the phone and had some left over cash to use on a case.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Censura_Umbra:
I finally decided to buy the s3 from Amazon for $50 after waiting a few days for the price to go down. As soon as I decided that the price went up to $99. Anyone know when and where it will be available for $50 or below again for upgrade
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gtuansdiamm:
I like switching phone every year

I got all of them s phones

But I have to say the s3 is extremely popular

The s beam feature isn't as useless as I thought it would be but now there is such a lack of individuality with every s3 looking the same
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] howdyace:
I'd wait personally unless you're rocking a dumb phone or something equally useless.

Edit: reading your post I see you have my last phone... The evo. I'd say wait. Or at least get the note 2. :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bonebeatz1234:
By a s3 off craiglist they go for 200/300 save your upgrade and ride the s3 til something mind blowing comes out. There is a couple s3 I saw on Chicago craiglist for 150 people selling this phone everywhere just to get the note 2. I got my girlfriend s3 for 160 he was asking 200 but money talks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GiantJay:
Try swappa.com or eBay. If you have a little money just hold off and pick up something for now to get you by. You can get a Evo 4G LTE or a Photon Q for under $300. Or pick up a S2. You should be able to get a S2 somewhere for under $200, and its still a great phone. Then just get the S4 with your upgrade when available, and sell the other phone. It should pretty much cover the upgrade price of the S4.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bonebeatz1234:
The gs2 don't have lte and sprint 3g is very slow. He's better off getting the old nexus with lte.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GiantJay:
I'm guessing they don't have LTE like 99% of Sprint customers so get a cheaper phone like a S2 for now especially if they have wimax in their area. Then sell it and get the S4 with the upgrade when its available.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dirtyred1971:
Go s3 I love it with root
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] haynesr07:
That's a good question. The phone game is slowly changing over time. S4 will be sort of like the Optimus G, which has some nice hardware. I can see Samsung maybe grabbing a 2Ghz quad, 2gb of ram 13MP camera and that's it.

I feel like that's what is going to happen but I could be wrong...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ilive12:
Probably a 1080p 5-inch display as well, with android 4.2 and perhaps an S-pen if recent rumors are correct.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GiantJay:
I just hope they don't forget to upgrade the batteries with these crazy specs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xblackvalorx:
I wish they'd hold off until the next major version of android and just quickly get us 4.2 I plan on purchasing the s4 but it would be a far better upgrade if it were one past 4.2 to start
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] dirtyred1971:
I have an s3 wish I had the note 2. With the Rom I have I get all the goodies of the note without the large screen
[Galaxy S III General] farmski:

[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] [-]awkeye:
My favorite phone of all time finally died. (it's been a couple of months actually)

Though I have moved on to a Samsung Galaxy Note II, I would keep this device around as a portable gaming device.

Before I break it down and start replacing parts, is there anything pointer wise this community can advise I try in order to resurrect this device?

Note:

1) The display would not turn on unless slide it open in a certain way. I assume the ribbon cable is toast but now the entire device does not turn on.

2) When attempting to charge the phone battery and all, all I get is a blue light.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazymonkey05:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II] ThaiM:
Can a mod sticky this?

Non US Note 2's don't have the locale set as en_US by default. As a result some apps like Google Speak and Voice Input don't work properly. To have your system set to en_US and have it STICK after reboot, do the following:

1. Download Elixir 2 (free).

2. Download Elixir 2 Widgets (free).

3. Create Elixir 2 locale widget - choose Locales toggle (Elixir 1x1 - 1 icon).

4. Put widget on your screen. Select the widget and choose English United States (en_US).

That's it. Now every time you reboot, it'll be set to en_US and Google Speak, Voice, etc. will work properly.

Click my Thanks button! :)

i can pay much to the service but really i wonder what was happening?

Hi,

here the specs of my phone:

- Samsung S5570

- Android ver 4.1.2

- CyanoGen 10-20121209-UNOFFICIAL-tass

Using ClockworkMod i formatted my 4GB SD (Kingston) with 1024MB partition and 0 cache.

I installed Link2SD to complete the "link" to SD but when i choose Fat32/16 for filesystem for the second partition i get this error:

mount: Invalid argument

Because i'm using a Windows system i can't use Ext#

Thanks for your help.

Reformat your SD-Card, next time use EXT Partition, or use Linux next time.

Do you mean reformat using again CWM method or using a PC?

CWM.

Reduce EXT Size.

EXT Size should be 512 MB (cause Read Write access on our Mini is very limited)

Swap is OK.

Damn you need to do some serious reading cwm is used to flash, backup roms and install zips on rooted devices. Titanium backup is used to backup user apps so they can be restored. There are a lot of topics similar to this for rooting your phone. You can do this but before you root please read and find out about things like the emmc brick bug http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vw_za0mQorw if you do not read up on things you'll end up with a great looking paper weight

Fits, if you follow these steps you can root your phone in 5-10 minutes.

1. Turn on your phone, connect it to your pc and install the drivers of your phone (so your phone can connect to your pc)

2. Turn of your phone and remove the usb cable

3. Hold the volume down button, power button and home button for like 10 seconds so your phone go to download mode, press volume up so your phone go further

4. Put the usb cable in your phone and connect it to your pc.

5. Open Odin (download link after tutorial)

If your phone is connected correctly you get a yellow bar with COM: (then a random number)

6. Press ''PDA'' and select the .TAR file (download link after tutorial)

Be sure its a .TAR file, otherwise your phone will brick

7. Press ''START'' your phone will root now, after the root it will reboot automaticly, check if you have this apps: CWM and SuperSU.

Download link Odin:

http://db.tt/fqvwktih (unzip it and copy ALL the files to one folder)

Download link root file:

http://db.tt/kbEY1fEZ (this is the .TAR file)

OR

http://db.tt/h1myMuQl (this is the

.Zip file, be sure to unzip it)

If you need further help just DM me.

If you only need root, and you are not going to flash a rom, then use method 1 here instead of flashing a new kernel.

Download Root_SuperSU.0.96-Busybox.1.20.2-S2-signed.zip, and copy it to externalsd card on the phone.

Boot into stock recovery (volume up+home+power), and select "apply update from external storage". Now select the Root_SuperSU.0.96-Busybox.1.20.2-S2-signed.zip file downloaded above and you are rooted.

If you also want to flash a rom, then skip the above and either follow this, or the other suggestions here :)
