False in every way imaginable. Lol.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jessicahll:
I had to send in my old phone twice through Best Buy. Each time it only took 2 days to get a new phone because they would send me a new (well... Refurbed...) phone instead of repairing my old one

It now covers lost/stolen phones. And it's only a dollar more per month. Totally worth it, IMO.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] andybones:
VZW will only give 1 year warranty refurbished phones when bought from their stores/phone or their on-line site.

No third party phones. unless u get lucky for instance,

if you bought an incredible 4g off eBay and it crapped out and needed a refurbish, since you bought off eBay you can't get a 1 year warranty replacement from VZW, but if someone else on your line has the same phone, and bought it from VZW and is within the 1 year warranty, just call in and activate the eBay phone with issues to the line that has the phone bought from VZW, get a refurbish sent and send back the eBay phone.

now.. this is 100% going to work, but I've personally done this and it worked, but don't blame me if it doesn't :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] x714x:
Verizon is $6.99 a month and the 1yr warranty from the manufacture gets extended for life of the phone (vzw will replace it after the 1st yr). But yes you do have a deductible on lost/stolen/damaged. If you want just the insurance without the extended lifetime warranty its $5.18 a month. So really its cheaper for just the insurance, BB is $10 x 24 mnths = $240. VZW is $5.18 x 24 mnths = $125. So if you only use the insurance once then it saves you $15 :P
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ucpro:
Whoa I didn't notice all the replies haha. I'm just thinking about doing an insurance thing since the gps is never 100 percent.

I went to best buy because I have the credit card with no interest for 18 months, and i paid full price since I didn't wanna lose my unlimited data
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] nevrlow:
I bought a gs3 3rd party, told vzw i bought it in a store and they sent me a refurbed no questions asked
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ucpro:
same here, they're overnighting a phone to me. i still get the yellow exclamation point when in download mode though, so i'm not sure if i did that part right or not, here's what it says.....

..... and bought a N7100. Because I get crappy battery life even with HSDPA+ only compared to N7100. I don't have LTE in my area, and LTE bands on my N7105 are not compatible with LTE bands in USA where I will be moving to very soon...

Another reason is there are more roms and tweaks in the forum for N7100...
[Galaxy Note II General] Simone:
Good choice? :cyclops:
[Galaxy Note II General] EdgaBimbam:
If he uses mobile data only for email checking, browsing, 3g is enough. I get about 8mbps with 3g and for me it is enough. + as he mentioned more mods, roms and better battery life for n7100. Good choice ;)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stepcalhoun:
I use my I pod for music mainly cause of the physical buttons that allow me to track skip whilst the device is in my pocket tho am interested to see if this would be possible with the note by using the remote control, like is there an app that would make the music player recognise a double click on the volume remote in the included headphones as a skip, or is there a non blue tooth remote available that would do this, I haven't found any
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smaragdhk:
Poweramp does that. You can configure in the settings how the app responds to the headset buttons, e.g. double press or tripple press to skip to the next track.

Good morning guys,

Last night i've found something very very cool, a app that import your youtube playlists and play all of them while you use other apps.

Cool? Yes, a lot :)

Here's the app:

[HTC One S] dlorde:
I just updated my HOS (Vodafone) from ICS to Jellybean, and now I no longer see the 'Smileys' option in the Message app menu (for selecting a smiley to insert into the message text). I'm using the Swype keyboard, as I was with ICS.

Anyone know how to get this 'Smileys' menu option back?
[HTC One S] vbaros:
They moved the smiles to the default keyboard. Now it's accessible from all apps.
[HTC One S] dlorde:
Unless one happens to be one of the thousands using a different keyboard, in which case it's not accessible anywhere... :(

Thanks for rapid response, anyway.
[HTC One S] dlorde:
Keyboard workaround

I found a way to keep the Swype keyboard I like and still have access to the smileys list...

This is probably well known, but since no-one has mentioned it - if more than one keyboard is installed and enabled at the same time, a keyboard icon appears in the notification area that allows you to swap keyboards on-the-fly, and so get access to any features on any keyboard. Not ideal, but as good as it gets.

Hi everyone,

Yesterday i´ve upgraded my phone to stock ics v30b.

when i make a phone call, in the end i get the normal message with the cost but it comes with a very loud sound( notification sound).

My question is if there is a way to remove that notification sound.

Greetings,

I have a problem.

And if there is some reliable website to unlock the SIM card?

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] iBlueee:
Hello guys, so I have a question. So you know right, in Gingerbread, there was this function where when I plug in my earphones, the media volume will change to the volume which I used last time when I was when i used my earphones. I think it is a samsung thing.

But since I changed to ics, i have lost this function, so now I have to change the media volume myself when i plug in my earphone, which is a hassle, at least for me.

Therefore, I am looking for an app which has this function. Please do post something which helps and not something like 'Go google for it or search it on xda'. I would honestly appreciate if you link me to the app instead, thank you very much :)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] cycloneblast:
I am using CM10. My phone's speaker is always at it's loudest. But every time I plug my earphone in, the volume would went back the volume I used last time. So I think the function is still there.

This option is set by default in GB but in JB you get to choose whether to use it or not
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] iBlueee:
I'm using ics and im not planning to upgrade to JB yet
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] 7amada100:
IIRC, it is there in ICS too check and tell me ;)
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] iBlueee:
Its not, not at least when i checked, in JB its under volume right?
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] 7amada100:
yes, it is under volume. Try looking elsewhere like system or such, maybe it could be there
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] iBlueee:
I think its just not in ics, I searched system and other places too, so now I'm actually looking for an app
[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] 7amada100:
Good luck on that, and why not come to JB? It is enough stable for daily use, I can't go back to ICS anymore lol I just love the JB features :good:

[Samsung Galaxy W I8150] iBlueee:
Yea i know, i like JB features too but I didn't get very good battery life on it and not all apps are working properly with JB, furthermore arco's 3.0 kernel is not fully functional with camera (i know i can use 2.6 but i would rather wait for 3.0).

Yeah !

But test point will be risky method ! A challenging task ! If you fail one step , you ll have to prepare your mind :laugh:

Anyone knows this method?

Hi, i've been reading XDA threads a while and came up with this one:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2070325

the author claims that its now posible to UNLOCK BL in devices post 12w14. Does anyone know anything about this?

Since i'm new here i can't post in that thread lol:silly:

Thanks in advance and sorry for the bad english :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Phillip Wu:
You won't

---------- Post added at 12:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:06 PM ----------

You can try that ! Because the author claim it wont harm the devices

As as my exp i'm think that it got only 25-50% to do it !

But it's worth a try ! Let go

:fingers-crossed:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
It works and one of my friend has done it!

And it involves very few steps!

Bootloader Allowed: NO

Yes, i´ve been reading in that thread that many used 0% fix and unlocked their cellphones.

What i have not mentioned before is that my phone is "Bootloader Allowed: NO", so it might not work, or it can be risky...to solve that i need to "unbrand" my phone first, right? If so, any advices or recomendations??

Thanks again for replying!:good:
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
I think you can't unlock if its SIM locked!

Then,I guess s2 tool or wotan client is the only way to unlock which is paid!

i couldnt unlock my phone via s1tool cuz not recognized certificate... but i didnt want to do with this 'tool'. so i payed for wotan

I unlocked my 12w31, so I bet, Your phone will be unlocked :)

Just follow the steps and flash GB firmware before if You're on ICS or unlock bootlader on ICS and right after, before turning the phone on, flash ICS kernel, and only then boot :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] winnstorm:
Hi all

The method only works if you put the phone in fastboot, I tried to unlock my phone but the program requires to put the phone in fastboot mode after you click the fix button.. So its not possible on bootloader unlock allowed NO since fastboot is disabled.

If there is another way to use the program just let me know.

Btw Thanks for the great work

Checked your bootloader status?

And check there
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] papo_blue7:
What do i have to check?

That?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
Yes exactly! That!

You'll have to try the unofficial way I guess!

Since your bootloader can't be unlocked via official way

Not to worry! Test point method to the rescue
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] papo_blue7:
Easy, isn't it? First requirement: patience?

I think I just need some wire
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] crispi7:
Test Point, no difficult

Use test point method, it is not risky nowadays, you only have to touch 2 points with a clip or something like that. So don´t believe that afraid people that have never done it. It´s 8€ and it open your bootloader and you will also be able to insert any operator sim card :laugh:

[HTC One X] Random Pinenut Joy:
I have been reading here & there on the interweb that v3.0.1 RC is out there somewhere. On the official xda thread there are 2 members posting, stating that they are currently testing the new Viper X v3.0.2 ROM. If there is anyone out there with information on how to become a tester or to just be able to download the beta version. This would be most appreciated. Viper X was the first custom I downloaded and booted on my One X. Have tried many, many other ROM's & none compare. Some have this, some have that, but Viper X has it all... The best custom ROM I have seen full stop.
[HTC One X] RichmondoUK:
Hate to say but we have good bunch of beta testers already.

It will soon be released :D
[HTC One X] Random Pinenut Joy:
Hey guy, not appreciated... What do you know about me or my extensive linux programming experience. Android is just a hobby, please do not discourage those who could seriously have the goods to be become one of your almighty testers. Yes, there is a life other than android, and yes I can wait for the JB release, and yes I am still using the 2.71 ROM. Maybe there are others out there that look at things differently as to bring a fresh new idea into a world held so tight by only a few.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
don't want to break it to you, but you are asking for a link to the beta, as you could have seen in the official thread there is no link and testing is a work in progress by a team that circles around Richmondo. If you wanted to apply as a betatester you just could have sent Rich a PM and you would have the answer.

My opinion, opening this thread was (is) useless :cool:
[HTC One X] uqadwe:
Well Mr Hofs my opinion is that 90% of your post are useless. I don't understand why the need to comment some users idea in such a manner, i am watching the Viper thread quite closely and i am seeing your nonsense posts every single day but i somehow managed to restrain myself till now.

I am very curious too about the Jelly Bean rom, i loved the ICS version and eagerly awaiting the next release and the one for the One X+

I too am very "frustrated" and waiting for a new version, but Richmondo's post calmed my feelings.

Can't say that i agree with the topic, but it's a try, and it's a more honest aprouch than yours.
[HTC One X] Mr Hofs:
My nonsense posts everyday....show me wich are nonsense, at least i make donations to the team and I try to give input with themer fisha and work out my ideas and edit apps for the red venom theme ......where is your oh so great input ... well you know definitely what you are talking about. Have you also seen how many useless posts i posted in the Q&A part of the forum.

My reaction was a polite one and not offensive to the OP, I also did not use any words to hurt the OP, just giving my opinion.....and I'm the least frustrated about the release....having fun with other roms and the viper ics, and having fun in the viper thread from time to time...if that is useless I would have had some infractions from the mods and not a click on the thanks button. Get your facts right. that you are frustrated about the release is not my problem.....

I know now why its better that you keep your mouth shut :thumbdown:

And I stated very clear that I shared my opinion .....not somebody else's.

Wow another flame war begins ,Why don't people just live and let live .

[HTC One X] beanbean50:
well i think that 90% (probably more) of what you write is very helpful indeed and please don't stop :fingers-crossed:

edit:

sorry OP i forgot to answer your question as i was side-tracked! ... to answer your question the dev @Rich wrote it will be uploaded next month around the 12th of Jan and the beta testing has just about finished
[HTC One X] ShyamSasi:
Not to offend anyone but I don't see the point to rushing the ROM and requesting for beta testing or ETA. When the developer & the Team feels comfortable they will release it. The Team had opened for beta testing when it was in ICS so if they need more they will open and intimate the users. Till then it's better it wait patiently, because unlike other ROMs there is a lot of work to get all the ViperX features ported to new version our I'm sure they are working as hard as they can to releases it to our community. I'm no Moderator but my suggestion would be to keep the discussion friendly.... Cheers

Happy New year :)
