[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roadrunner100:
The full answer rests for most part on drivers. At the top level, some OS's such as iOS are designed to "talk" with a specific CPU and will work exclusively with it. The manufacturer provides a limited development platform that does not extend to the finer mechanics of the CPU. Below the CPU, there are other components that need an OS specific driver (Camera, GPS, Modem, Sensors etc...), that are written and designed specifically for each OS and are generally not transferable between the different OS's.

Devices like the HTC Leo were released with an open development platform and SDK's, that encompassed most of the device's hardware components, which made it "relatively" easy for developers to customize other OS's to talk with the devices' hardware components. The Leo's case in point is

rare

.

As for the S3, there are currently limited dev resources. This however does not mean a "closed case" for this device. If Samsung releases more tools and info for devs, you may indeed see different OS's ported to the device.

If we take WP8 as an example, the issues are at an even more challenging level at the moment. Devs are currently at a point of exploring the make up and structure of it. Once they have it completely figured out, they'll be able to customize it for specific hardware components (if they have the necessary drivers). Cotula, a leading dev has been able to get WP8 (RT) to work with the Leo, which is an encouraging sign for future ports to other devices.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] walletless:
I have enabled location sharing from settings since I frequent use my phone for turn-by-turn voice directions and some pedometer-like apps to count my activity. I also like some Google Now functionality that enabling location access gives.

However, besides disabling this setting system-wide, it seems that the Facebook app always shares my location when I post status updates - and I find that extremely annoying. I scanned all app settings and could not find a way to disable location sharing from Facebook.

My question - is there anyway I can keep the system-level setting while preventing Facebook app from accessing location? I have not rooted my phone (Nexus 4) but will be willing to do so if that can help me with this problem.. Any suggestions?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] palexr:
Doesn't the LBE security software allow you to set permissions on a per app basis? I think you need to search for it on xda for the translated version.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rusty!:
Facebook doesn't share my location each update, I just checked a bunch of previous ones and they don't mention it at all.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] walletless:
Thanks!! LBE seems like it might do the trick... Will root my phone tomorrow morning and put lbe.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] walletless:
Rusty try checking in to some place once. After that it will always share your location for all posts you make. I checked in one without knowing this‚ and there is no way to undo it after.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] heat361:
Its under settings in the Facebook app
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] walletless:
I don't see it under settings... Can you please elaborate? The only setting I see is for sharing location on Chat/messenger but that does not change the location sharing behavior on regular posts.

Any way‚ I rooted the phone but lbe privacy does not work with jelly beans (soft reboot on startup - several recent reviews on play store also says that).. So for now after resetting the phone I've not used the checkin feature on Facebook.. It's a bad workaround and I hope LBE fixes it's jelly bean issues soon.

Thanks again :)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zephymobile:
I was trying to fix my GPS problems when I flashed the AOSP gps fix type 2 while also updating my Kernel (12/11 KT747 JB AOSP) and modem to VLBK3. Now I am stuck with a blank screen. Was originally on Beans rom 7 JB. Any ideas on how to fix this??? Please help!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid2drummer:
This will probably be moved or you may want to post this in the help section. But while im here. You able to get to bootloader? Or download mode? From power off hold all three down. Power home and volume down. You should xome to a triangle. From there you should be able to get to recovery. If not save battery and get to a computer and xda the odin 3.07 .zip and drivers also the file will be there as well. You should be ok. I dont want you to freak out as it is kindof hard to really brick. But possible . So. Head over and follow the simple steps. I got in a hurry once and flashed the wrong zip and blacked out. I powered off via battery pull held three buttons and volume up I believe. Then I got back into recovery via reboot.

Edit. I then wiped everything. System too and reflashed backup
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] zephymobile:
Nvm I just flashed Beans rom and it's working fine!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid2drummer:
Whew.. lol glad to hear it. Guess the same did happen. Just remember. If you see this happen to someone else. Share the experience. You should also prolly post in help bro k? That way youll save time. Peace my friend. And enjoy that feeling. I love when I recover from a soft brick. Lol im sick!!!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Droid2drummer:
Yeah I told him matter of time as its my first line in my post. In the meantime if I see someone needing help should I just tell them nothing more than move post to proper threads or? I don't want to cause any friction. Been doing this a long time but not in xda. Much respect and regards moderator .. :)

Are there any popular inverted web browsers and how much battery would they save on an AMOLED?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lifehacker7:
The android stock browser has this option (4+). The images look weird (like x-rays images) :D. That should really save some amount of battery.

Edit - found that dolphin can do much better inverting than stock ( they have the night mode). Images don't look weird on it.!

I seem to be having issues with chargers for my phone.... What works for you guys???

I'm using a PowerGen 3AMP Charger & Motorola MicroUSB Cable... Nothing else seems to charge fast enough, and I have a bag full of 20 broken MicroUSB cables... I panic and think my MicroUSB Port on my phone is broken each time, but if I buy a new cable, things are fine. The Motorola MicroUSB cables are the most durable it seems...

What USB Power Brick & What USB Cable Combo are you guys using?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] teambestyrandy:
Stock whatever came in the box when I got the s3. Wouldn't want to mess with any other chargers not made for my phone it could result in my battery exploding. Read somewhere using different charger can cause that.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Actionx1:
Im in the middle of looking for a good combination. My 2yr old broke the USB cable so I've been looking for one that does the job. So far they suck.

Any inexpensive suggestion would be nice.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Pennycake:
I'm using my Kindle charger and some random 1Amp charger I bought for like $1.60 on eBay. Nothing's exploded yet. I dunno about fast charging, I just charge mine at the end of the day and have no hurry (thus, sometimes I use the Kindle charger if I'm lazy).
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tony yayo:
I use the charger from my galaxy tab 10.1. Works great. No problems. Charges me up about twice as fast as the phone's charger will.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] ro_bro:
I bought this from ebay, and it works well - charges pretty fast. 100% in less than 2 hours I'd say.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/170848013630?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

I have bought an HTC charger before thinking it would be the same, but it's not. It charges really slow.

In short, stick w/ the Samsung charger.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jordeeeezy:
pricey but i plan to get this charger. i find it great for car use instead of buying a dock. also when you want to watch videos without having to hold the phone :D

http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/fusechicken/une-bobine-for-people-who-love-iphone
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] se1000:
Look for a charger that's rated at least 1A (1000mA) and is not from a generic manufacturer. Read: Samsung, Apple, Motorola, HTC, HP, Amazon. I personally do not like others. Watch out for fakes, esp if you buy an Apple charger.

Buy a 28/24awg or thicker micro USB cable. Monoprice (can be found on Amazon) has some and I believe Medialink cables are 24/20awg, which is even better. Remember at least 24awg on the voltage carrying lines, a lower number is better.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] teambestyrandy:
Andru 25 dollar charger android looks cool
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Actionx1:
The problem with the cables is that they rarely specify the thickness of the cable. You pretty much have to eyeball it from the pictures.

But Great advice. Gonna keep that in mind on my next purchase

Type R-blood
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] se1000:
28/24 awg, gold plated connectors, ferrite cores, $1.40. Doesn't get a whole lot better than this. http://www.monoprice.com/products/p...=10303&cs_id=1030307&p_id=5458&seq=1&format=2
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ThePhantom97:
Well ladies and gents after tomorrow I may be moving to the Galaxy Nexus. I have been eyeballing them for a while now and today my brother got one. He brought it over and wanted it rooted and cool custom rom put on it and we had an evening of fun with it. I can upgrade to that phone for $.97 and that is hard for me to pass up. There is nothing wrong with my Inc 2, but I sure do like that bigger screen it is very snappy and I don't think I can go wrong for a dollar. I have also been looking at the S3 for awhile too, but I will give the gnex a go and see what I think.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] alochmst98:
The phone may be $0.97 up front but it's not a $0.97 phone. That's the subsidized price. The real cost of the phone is in the monthly fees over the course of a two year contract.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] andrewk7750:
I'm sure he knows that..
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ThePhantom97:
Oh yeah, I know they still get their money, especially with the data charges! :D I have been purchasing my phones used so I could keep my unlimited data, but I now work from home and don't really need unlimited data because I stay connected to wifi 90% of the time, so why not upgrade and get my new phone. The only con I could find was the lack of a SD card, but I have a 16gb sd card in my phone now and that is plenty for me.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ThePhantom97:
Well, I did go ahead and get the gnex and so far so good. I still have my Inc 2 and will still play around with it from time to time and if for some reason I find something that I dislike with the gnex I will have something to on hand to activate.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] prototype7:
Cool, enjoy it. Looks like a solid phone, it was my backup plan if I didn't get the deal I wanted on the S3
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] Un1c0de:
I think that's what ill be doing. That phone is still good and you don't have to deal with branding. Plus you get the benefit of LTE.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] ThePhantom97:
So far it is a great phone, running PA on it and it is running smoothly. I don't think I will regret getting it at all.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] nitsua98:

Just wondering is there an app similar to photo steam that syncs all your photos across your phone and the tablet?

Dropsync for example.

It can do 2 way sync to Dropbox.

The LG software update tool. I used it in the past to upgrade from Froyo to Gingerbread, and it told me GB was the latest software. Until I found out about V20H for Singapore carrier, which it prompted me to update it. After updating, it kept telling me there's a new update despite V20H is the latest as of that time.
