Verizon took long enough:mad:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vtfan99:
From the Verizon release:

This just makes me cry. Why can't we just adopt a single wallet like application (at this point I honestly don't care which)? No e-wallet type system will be adopted if everyone keeps launching their own. ISIS doesn't help me since I don't live in either of the 2 covered locations. I also can't find anything around me that supports google wallet...but I have that up and running.

Ok...rant off. Surprised that this release is actually happening.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ECrispy:
Verizon is never going to support Wallet. Once Apple 'invents' NFC next year, then all the carriers will fall over themselves trying to support their new proprietary system which will work only on iPhones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jager420:
Lol someone doesnt like Apple..never had an iphone but there pc/laptops are nice hardware and easy to use for basic users
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] vtfan99:
Yeah...that is what makes me sick. I always find it amusing that folks (read general population) are overly eager to adopt anything Apple does, no matter how dumb (new maps anyone?). Yet they are always hesitant when Google does it. I don't mind if you're hesitant...but be consistent.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] suchavibrantthang:
Apple loves having people at starbucks scan a red laser on your phone's pixels.

NFC avail for iOS 8in 2yrs, will be the newest thing for the sheep to bahhhh about.

by then, everyone will be using NFC to get through security doors.

Why not just do this now?

Install the Samsung drivers, install Odin, download the no-wipe file. 10 minutes later you are on stock LK3 with root.

So glad official jelly bean is coming out tomorrow... I've had horrible data issues on the JB modem/roms that I never experienced on ICS. Now I can officially complain and get something done about it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] loonie01:
Ok, I was just curious about the Isis payment compared to Google Wallet. I just looked at the Isis web site to see where the Isis app could be used. Well it only shows 2 cities that have it, Austin and Salt Lake City. Now my question is any of you live in either these 2 cities and have seen the Isis icon at any merchant places compared to the Google wallet icon?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bobAbooE:
Already am. Running revolution 4.5. Having an ota is kinda cool.

I rooted the day I got this thing .
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kujayhawks77:
I travel to Austin frequently and any place that takes NFC payments ISIS has worked. (wife's inc4g has it)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ahpatel:
so, when can we expect 4.1.2 :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] JagXK8:
What's the use? Go for 4.2.1 next.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] suchavibrantthang:
baby steps man. they want to test stability rather than jump on the latest **** w/ problems. oh and 4.2.x has security issues anyway.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ac29593:
Wasn't clean rom 5.5.1 based off this leak?

If that's the case then it leak 4 can't be official jelly bean since it does not have some of the features I know jelly bean has from my friends phones that actually have been on official otas for a while now.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] loonie01:
Hopefully Verizon didn't screw us by not adding the new stuff into the rom that the other carrier phones have.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mav3rick478:
Engadget just annouced OTA to start rollout tomorrow, download size is 400mb damn!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryno77:
I'm surprised they're rolling this out with the maps wake lock issue. I know Google now is going to use battery but 15000 wakes in a day is a bit much. This can be stopped or at least limited by disabling location history but the every day android user probably doesn't know that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Div033:
This is Google's mess, not Samsung's. There's nothing they can do about it because AFAIK Google Now is closed source.

With all the 4.2 problems with the Nexus 4 & 10 (I recommended a nexus 10 to a friend and its virtually unusable due to reboots caused by overheating) I honestly have wondered wtf happened to Google. I can't say I'll ever recommend a nexus product again.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryno77:
True. This problem is definitely not limited to the s3. I can't believe they haven't fixed this. I know nothing about coding but limiting wake locks in maps can't be that hard for Google to fix. It's not like my battery life has been cut in half but you can definitely tell when maps goes nuts. I understand Google now needs to know where your at.... But they're getting carried away. I love jelly bean though :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aooga:
This isn't the newest leak. I thought it would be...its probably based on it, but probably has all the bug fixes. Google now is now opened by holding the home button. I actually like that better than the menu button. Hopefully if wont create a lag as it did for svoice....oh svoice, how useless you were.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jo_blow421:
I'm not happy about this whole Isis situation or whatever it is. In fact the idea that Verizon can control what I have on my phone at all angers me. I should be able to have google wallet and be pushed updates from Samsung, not Verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aooga:
Thats what all of us want, its never going to happen unless samsung says "No phones for you unless you stop putting crap on our phones" which probably wont happen anytime soon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Ryno77:
Google now can be opened using the home button on the leak.

I guess we'll find out soon if this is the leak or only based on it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ghodzilla5150:
Exactly. I did this and within 10 minutes I had JB 4.1.1 and STILL kept Root. Don't wait for Verizon to break your Root & Unlocked Bootloader with their OTA.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] aooga:
It can? By holding the home button? Didn't know that..maybe it is the kl3 then.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jcurley:
That's funny, I am running clean ROM 4.2.1 on my n7 with lean kernel and have not had one issue. Been flawless.

4.2 does not really ad much to a Samsung phone other than sphere photo.

Everything else is already on TW Roms.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] suchavibrantthang:
Still cant believe Crapple got gmaps before we got JB. Way to go Verizon. You f'd up again.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sombuck:
Alright, not to sound like an idiot or anything but is Verizon pushing JB to SGIII?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ghodzilla5150:
Starting tomorrow they will be pushing JB 4.1.1
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] putney1477:
I know this is possible with the mentioned method. However, if I have just a rooted and unlocked bootloader (cwm installed) Will I still be able to get the OTA update? I have gotten 2 different answers :)

I was told that as long as I am not running a custome rom that I will be able to get the OTA, I was also told that since I have a custom recovery that I would not be able to get the OTA.

Question, if I do get the OTA it will probably break root and relock my bootloader, then wouldnt I just be able to root and unlock using the same method as I did in the first place? Or will there need to be a different way to do it?

Thanks
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] salas2324:
It won't install with a custom recovery
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BigErnM:
If you are running stock rooted and unlocked VRALHE or below you will get a prompt to download the OTA which will keep popping up. It will download but it will fail to install because it will boot into CWM recovery instead of the stock recovery it is expecting. You shouldn't try to install it from CWM as it won't work. If you go back to stock recovery then you will get the OTA if you are on VRALHE or below and it will install locking your bootloader and losing root access. The old method of rooting with the DebugFSRoot won't work on the JB OTA. If the OTA did install you could follow this guide to get root and bootloader unlock back: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2046439.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cj64:
Your phone will download the update and if there's nothing to prevent the update from installing, it will install and you will lose root. It will probably also revert your bootloader and recovery to stock. CWM may or may not allow the OTA to install depending on what version you have.

Freeze SDM to prevent the update from downloading and installing. When the OTA is released, I will update this thread and you can download a modified OTA from it that will preserve root, bootloader, and recovery:

[MOD] OTA updates - keep root, custom recovery, unlocked bootloader and Google Wallet
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thank Me Later:
There's no way it's that big. That's a bigger file than ICS was for the Razr/Razr Maxx. And Jelly Bean isn't as big of a jump from ICS compared to being on Gingerbread jumping to ICS.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] salas2324:
Aren't the job ROMs we have now that are debloated around 600mb ?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] mirrin:
smallest jb is asop at around 167 mb smallest touchwiz i have seen is 399mb mind you updates dont necessarily have to be the full rom image.

Most jb roms i have downloaded for my s3 have been around 500mb up to 870mb
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] loonie01:
You must not have downloaded a GS3 rom they can go up to 750 mb
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] open1your1eyes0:
Please be informed that for anyone who just received their Jelly Bean OTA and just wants to root (along with flashing a custom recovery and unlocking your bootloader) without having to flash the complete factory image (as in Step 1 of my original guide), I have created a new thread for such a method.

Please refer here: Link

And let the race begin
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Patr1ck.:
Race of what?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AJ26T:
Thought it wasnt starting till 12/14
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Thank Me Later:
You are correct. I have not rooted or rom'd my S3 yet. I guess I didn't think about all the features that come with the S3 stock rom. My bad on that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Patr1ck.:
Technically it is 12/14 if you follow the standard time configurations. It's just not yet in the US :p

Regardless I haven't gotten it yet, or seen any reports of people getting it yet. When Verizon claimed it would be in waves, one can only assume that being Verizon, they will will release it in the slowest and most inefficient way possible.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] AJ26T:
Your probably right
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ghodzilla5150:
Thanks for the heads up on Freezing SDM. I just did that right now (via Titanium) and I also flashed CWM via Mobile Odin Pro. JB 4.1.1 is slick. Google Now is really cool.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jimmypop13:
How do these people have jobs at Verizon. The typos, nexus screen shots, and Google plus title scream incompetent. Meanwhile I'm in my mid 20s, have a bachelor's, and am unemployed at the moment. Why does Verizon not employ people who enjoy and are enthused about their products so these mistakes don't happen?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Patr1ck.:
The same reason why when they have the most resources of any carrier and still get the update out last?

No one knows, not even god himself understands the monkeys at Verizon.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Quacker:
For people currently running custom ROMs, what are you planning to do?

I'm on AOKP and it's mostly fine but still rather buggy. I can't decide if I want to Odin back to stock and wait for the OTA update, or just install a VRBLK3-based ROM like CleanROM. Is there any difference between the leak and the official update? Is installing the official update going to be bogged down with Verizon bloat or possibly screw up rooting/bootloader unlocking abilities?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] cell128:
Bloat- yes

Everything else well see tomorrow
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] bigee1212:
id just wait it out. from what i gather, samsung will release the source code the verizon jelly bean. hopefully this will help us with aosp roms...

Is this true? Link?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stingfeelgood:
i dont know about this. Im on Galaxy MOD RLS 9 and its working fantastic for me. Jelly Bean leaks have been out for more than a few weeks now. No reason to flash back to stock, unroot and relock just to have bloated TouchWiz back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CovXX:
Everything went back to the k3 update fyi
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Patr1ck.:
Just curious, are you running the alpha release or an older version?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] CovXX:
im building a custo of the ota once it hits, i have one now of he latest leak
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ghostboa:
haha I had the exact same concern, but with today's announcement I feel a bit more at ease :)
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Hookani:
Hi all,

Is there an alternative to the stock dialer for the SIII? Couple of things I don't like about the stock one if anyone knows any fixes for it that I'm not aware of.

When using the keypad to enter the name or number of the person you want to call, my old phone's dialer would suggest people or numbers based on recent or frequent calls so I can punch in a few letters or numbers and who I want to call would normally be at the top of the list and i can just click the name and it would call. The SIII doesn't seem to do that.

Also, this dialer seems pretty sluggish sometimes when working with dialer screens (dialing the chosen number, opening pull down menu, going between tabs, etc.).

Thanks,

Ho'okani
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] jdidtht:
Yea man you type the first number(letter) it pulls a name and next to that name it shows an arrow pointing down with the list of names for that letter. Works great
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Hookani:
Thanks. Knew about the arrow thing but just looking for something more intuitive. When you open up the list of names there doesn't seem to be any logical order to it and the ones at the top are usually names I rarely call. You would think the most used or recently called names would be at the top. Plus my phone seems sluggish when trying to open that list of names.

Thanks,

Ho'okani
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] d3athsd00r:
App store search for dialer will answer your questions.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] zamula:
My favorite is exDialer paired with exDialer ICS Theme. Both free ON Google Play.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Hookani:
Thanks. Trying out exDialer and seems to be pretty good so far.

Try out task650 aokp rom its got that and way way more
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] trecko1234:
Any AOSP rom for that matter, the dialer on AOSP roms are really good. But if you want to stay on the default rom, I'd +1 exdialer for its customization options and speed. I think there are modified stock roms with the AOSP dialer, but I'm not too sure/can't find them at the moment.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] aakashn:
Can anyone tell me what the best case would be for use with the Spectre Tempered Glass screen protector? I have a Zoogue case on my S3 right now. The Zoogue case slightly lifts the screen protector off the screen, which in turn, reduce the screen sensitivity. Do you guys have any recommendations?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] herbivoor:
I've got a Case-Mate Barely There with my Spectre. It fits nicely, you have about 2-3 mm between the case and the screenprotector on each side.

I don't recommend buying it though. It's a real sucky case and a lot of people (including me) have reported the matte finish to peel off. They send out replacements but those peel off as well.

Also, it almost doesn't protect the bottom and if you lay the phone down on its screen, it will lay on the screen, I mean, the case doesn't stick out a lot so that when you've got the spectre on, it lays on the spectre rather than on the case (if that makes any sense).

Dropped my phone a couple of times and have got 2 nice cracks in my screenprotector. Case doesn't protect much I guess. Haha.

Good luck on finding a case!
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] -Mindroid-:
When I move some files to mnt/sdcard on my phone and connect the USB cable, the files don't show on Windows XP computer.

On another thread it was explained that the MTP service doesn't automatically index files but an app called SDrescan can

do it manually. I found out that restarting the phone makes the files available on the computer.

Is there better way to do this?

Is this only a WindowsXP issue?

[edit]

It's now clear that this is an issue with Android.

How did it work on older versions? I'm running 4.2.1

Hi guys, some times ago I flashed Semaphore, but it haven't any CPU step higher than 1000 MHz. Can I have more CPU steps,like Devil, in Semaphore? (100-1400 MHz)

(Sorry for my bad english)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hr Kristian:
Download Semaphore Manager from the market. You can overclock using that app. Mind you, semaphore kernel can get glitchy at ~114% OC and up, so you might want to go with 110 and build gradually until you find a sweet spot...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pao:
Yeah, I know that, but with Live oc my limit is... 106 % :crying: I have tried every thing but I don't know why the CPU is so limited...
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] midnight911:
Heh, mine caps at 108%. It would be nice to "normally" oc to 1200mHz on semaphore. I could get 1296mHz with 108% like on Devil.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeusEx80:
the "live oc" has better performance of "simple oc" (at equal overclocking), because "live oc" overclock all frequencies and not only the higher frequency.

But with "live oc" you can raise less the frequencies
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pao:
Ok... So, is there a method to raise the limit?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] midnight911:
The only limit is your device. If your CPU/GPU doesn't like OC - you have to live with it (or buy another I9000 :cyclops: )
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pao:
Ummh, ok...

But the SGS don't support GPU Overclock, right? :confused:
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] midnight911:
Theoretically yes, but if you overclock BUS, your CPU, GPU, and RAM are OC'ed. On stock BUS is clocked at 200mHz. If you use LiveOC 110%, you overclock everything by 10% - GPU goes from 200mHz -> 220mHz, CPU from 1000mHz -> 1100mHz. That's why it's more unstable than normal OC.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pao:
Ah, that's new for me :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hr Kristian:
You might be able to get a higher stable overclock with voltage increase; available in later versions of semaphore, but that's something you'd need some guidance doing, and of course there are the general risks of that.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Pao:
I don't want to destroy my battery... It drops too much like this, with overvolting it will die in five minutes :rolleyes:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] saboture:
Well everyone, I decided to pick up the "Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE" with its long name. I didn't even bother using the Stock rom longer than 5 minutes before I had AOKP on it. Here are my first impressions.

The build quality is great. My main gripe about Samsungs phones, is that they all feel cheap. The LTEVO feels great in hand, with its weight and materials. I really like the aluminum band around the device as well.

The camera is second to none out of all of the camera phones I've used to date.

The screen is insanely good. I cannot get over how clear things are, and it might be just me but I swear the surface feels more slick than most displays out today.

Over all battery life has been impressive as well, but that could very well be due to the extensive tweaks I've enabled on my current rom, Pacman rom.

Now, my only issue with this phone is the sound output level. It is so low, that I literally cannot hear it at max volume if I'm sitting on it. I've tried everything possible from CDMA workshop, to QPST to Volume +. Nothing has worked thus far. Is this a common issue or should I try to return it to Amazon for a replacement, or go through sprints TEP (I pay the 11.00 one) and get a refurbished one?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lostsoul77:
How are you managing to sit on it and not bend it?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Genjinaro:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] saboture:
lol I think you guys are too cautious about your phone. I'm 6'0 and 240-250lbs and I don't worry at all about it bending/snapping/breaking/being crushed/disappearing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NaterTots:
Of you flashed AOKP then you gave away the "camera that was second to none."

The aosp camera is not the same as on sense.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Agreed, sense cam is MUCH better, ...but sense is not. I just was using sense last few days and it's pretty noticeable.

As for volume, yes, it is very low. But, if you're using AOKP from tmartin build 3 or 4, you can use the volume fix zips that are in his thread, and I think they're in B-reezys code name android OP. There's a 68 a 70 and a 72. I used the 70, worked well. I Dont know if they work with the more recent builds, the bases and kernels have changed a lot since they were made.

Good luck.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] saboture:
I'm no longer using Tmartins build, I'm on Pac rom. I wonder if it'll work for that? I'll flash it here in a minute and let you know. :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] saboture:
I couldn't find them. :P And a google search only led me to volume + etc.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scottspa74:
Gimme a sec. I'll drop box em to ya if you wanna try.

Edit: here's the 70. Lemme know how it goes, please

http://db.tt/dqDbuvJG

I'm on PACman, too.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] saboture:
I flashed it, nothing broke as far as I can tell. It seems like it's a little louder. Try it yourself and see if you can tell a difference.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] dandan2980:
I flashed on PAC ROM too thanks it actually did increase the volume. Is 70 the best one? How are the other fix zips???
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MagicalSandwich:
Those zips break VVM and some other stuff on newer builds. I can't remember off the top of my head what all it breaks, but I'll see if I can't dig it up.
