Why should I (we) thank you for something I (we) didn't ask, didn't want, and do not appreciate? If someone likes it and uses it, he should thank you. If I browse the forums, see this thread and do not like what I see in it, why on Earth should I thank you? I just close the tab and hope you'll find some audience.

I actually really like one of the wallpapers, but I would change the font. Would you mind sharing the original wallpaper so I can play around a bit? I'm referring to this one:

Also, can you share it in the same size that you resized it to, as its one of the rare wallpapers that crop PERFECTLY on my Note 2.

Thanks!

From one of the few people who understands what you are doing. Very nice work. Surprised no one has done this before on this phone. Probably someone has but still good work. Might try it later. Does this kill android? I'm confused as the set up.

Is this a proper install on a partition or an img file?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LLStarks:
It's an img file and I've found it most helpful to start with the Ubuntu small image to maximize space. Otherwise you may need to expand the img.

This does not wipe Android though you may need to stop the process.

I just ordered an MHL cable and an OTG cable.

If on-screen Freedreno isn't possible (suspected but not proven) with a chroot environment, maybe outputing to an HDMI display is.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] LLStarks:
Got my cable but I'm not sure if I even need it.

If I can build a kernel with the extra flags (modules? built-in?) I need, I'm fairly certain that they'd be exposed to a chroot.

Freedreno can't work unless certain DRM stuff is accessible.

CONFIG_DRM=y
CONFIG_MSM_KGSL_2D=y
CONFIG_MSM_KGSL_DRM=y

I've had a chroot installed for a while and never messed with it because X-over-VNC really sucks. I'd love to get a real X server with good GPU performance running.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ThePagel:
A problem I see you running into if you try to revive your efforts is input devices (one of your major complaints) you really can't beat the keyboard/mouse support that pocket cloud gives you. Did you already have a solution for that or did you plan on developing drivers? Seriously though if you like using Linux on the phone try connecting to it with pocket cloud. That free vnc app everybody seems to recommend in the tutorials for doing this really sucks.

[Galaxy Tab 2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattyMatt8:
Hey everyone,

Just got one of these for free for buying the Samsung camera I wanted... lol. Now I thought about selling it, but since it price dropped to 150 in Canada I was thinking of buying another and giving them to my niece and nephew (brother's, age four and two) and my nephew and niece (sister's, age four and one). Now the latter already uses an iphone for games and sort of gets it. So I think he could transition into this easily enough. The former, not much, but my brother has a tab and he could show them and so could I, etc.

All in all, I am just wondering how kid friendly it is. I don't plan to deviate from stock roms, just because I know there can sometimes be issues. Might get rid of stupid heavy touchwiz and make sure it's on JB, but that is it. And possibly a dumb question, but if I root and start removing preloaded apps, is that OK, or will it have adverse effects?

What about apps for them? Parental lock?

If it is all terrible, I may just wait a year for a new generation.

The other thing is that I would needed cases for them, preferably on the sturdier. Otterboxes seem to be impossible to find, at least in Canada. Anything else in the tougher case area? Even though it is close to Christmas, waiting isn't much of an issue.

I did find these and they look nice enough: http://www.amazon.ca/Fosmon-Revolvi...2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1355546811&sr=1-2

But I am worried as far as actual drop protection goes. These kids are pretty good with the stuff, nothing has been broken yet, but I am paranoid, yet I keep all my devices naked...

Any help and pointers are appreciated. I am on a budget of a hundred per kid, so this just about works out.

Oh and if this is in the wrong section, then I am very sorry.

Try an app called kids place. Locks the device down to only apps you allow to be run and even works after a reboot and is pin protected.

If the child clicks an advert on a game or clicks to buy more coins on an app it stops that, although it stops the whole app and has to be started again

Hi,

I've had my GSIII for a couple of months now. It's completely stock and unrooted. I was wondering if there was any benefit to rooting it, but not unlocking the bootloader and installing the custom recovery. I know that I won't be able to install custom roms or kernels. But is there anything else that I'd be losing out on?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zenboy444:
The only reason to unlock the bootloader would be to allow you to flash custom ROMs such as Cyanogenmod10, SlimRom, etc. You can do this by downloading EZ-Unlock from the play store. You will need root to run the program.

You will need root access to do anything a "superuser" needs to do, i.e. run programs such as Titanium backup, triangle away, ROM manager, Ez-Unlock, Root access using file explorer programs, and other programs that require root to function. You can flash Custom Recover without root, using ODIN and an ODIN CWM tar with a boot chain. You can then flash superuser/root using custom recovery.

If you don't need CWM Recovery, then you can just root using the PC USB method.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] usmaak:
A couple of months ago, I had an Evo that was fully unlocked, with a custom ROM and kernel. For now, I just want to root it, so that I can run things that require root, like Titanium, and some of the other apps that I bought when on the Evo. I rooted and unlocked the Evo because I was tired of it being sluggish. I actually really like the current setup on my GIII. I'm sure that down the road some ways (when I get bored), I'll fully unlock it, to take advantage of other ROMs.

I am still on 4.04. If I just root, will I be able to update to JB with the OTA?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] OnceAMatrixMan:
Similar question...

I am stock 4.0.4, but want to root now that JB is out (don't know why I waited guess I just like the idea of doing it before probably the last major OTA). So I plan to root and unlock. Just wondering do I do it now before loading the JB OTA or afterwards? Are there advantages of one over the other? Thanks!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Quacker:
You should be able to receive the OTA update for JB if you check for updates in settings; if not you will receive it soon. Rooting will not speed up that process at all, and since you'll likely be on JB soon there's really no point in rooting right now. OTA will remove root anyway, but there is a rooting method for JB already available.

If you do eventually decide to root, the main advantage is you can unlock bootloader and flash a custom recovery to install one of the many ROMs available for this phone. If you dislike TouchWiz, you can flash an AOSP rom like CM10 which is more of a stock Android experience. If you don't mind TouchWiz, you can install a ROM like CleanROM which gets rid of Verizon's bloat with a few extra perks.

If you're not into installing custom ROMs, you could still take advantage of rooting by freezing unwanted apps which hinder battery life and run other root-only apps like AdFree which block ads. Also, you can avoid waiting for Verizon to push out updates and install the leaks early.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] db4d1988:
The big reason I rooted was to uninstall all the bloatware and the ability to back everything up. That right there should be enough for anyone. As far as the ota, you should be able to, just expect to lose root as I've seen in other cases.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Quacker:
No point in doing that now because you will likely receive the OTA update within days, which removes root. You could technically install the leaked OTA manually right now (check the dev section), but since you're running stock you'll just receive it automatically. I wouldn't bother.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] usmaak:
I already have the JB update available. I am just waiting a while, to see if it causes any unintended problems. Specifically I'm looking to see if it adversely affects battery life or signal strength.

I'm doing the research and seeing what the differences are between rooting and unlocking the GSIII and the Evo. Right now, I'm fine with the stock ROM. It's way better than anything that I had on my Evo (and I tried them all). Right now, I just want to be able to run apps requiring root.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Quacker:
In my experience, it's usually difficult to avoid OTA updates for long if you're not rooted. I would usually go to sleep and find later that my phone updated itself.

I haven't heard of any battery issues with JB, but I don't see why anyone would want to stick with ICS at this point. Google Now alone is worth it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] usmaak:
I don't want to avoid OTA updates. I want it, I just want to wait a few days. I deferred it until 12/19.

I just want to make sure that:

1. I can still get OTAs with root, and...

2. There is a way to keep root if I accept the OTA.

I do want JB, but I've gotten screwed by OTAs in the past, on the Evo. I just want to be as certain as possible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] OnceAMatrixMan:
I delayed the update earlier today. I saw in several posts that Voodoo Root Keeper keeps root. So still curious to root now or after OTA update...?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Quacker:
You can get OTA with root. Just don't freeze any apps.

You can keep root with OTA Rootkeeper. I haven't heard of it failing for anyone with the recent update.

You could always re-root in JB.

---------- Post added at 07:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:09 PM ----------

Up to you. Rootkeeper does work with this update. I suppose rooting in ICS is easier, but the JB method isn't all that difficult either.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nufan:
I just rooted myself before I received OTA for the following reasons:

1) I didn't want to use ODIN

2) Didn't want to worry about using Triangle Away

This was my first time rooting, and it was effortless. I used droidstyle's guide. The only thing I did differently was use a modified Debugfs (w/SuperSU), since my phone didn't like the original Debugfs (w/superuser).

If it stopped at the SAMSUNG logo, with"wipe data"can fix the problem,but mine just stopped at "GT-I9300" (kernel loading is fine,I can see my siyah kernel logo at boot ,but it cant find the rom)
