[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmehcg:
It's really frustrating! Makes me not want to make any fone calls
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronin1973:
Enter *#0*# in the keypad to open the "test menu".

Press the Sensor tile and test your proximity sensor's function bij moving a finger over it.

If it does not change value from 0 to 1 and make the screen go green, your proximity sensor is likely to be broken.

Replacing the front camera (which houses the proximity senor) will then fix your problem.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yahyoh:
press the home button or power button :D
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmehcg:
I went into store today to speak to a tech that used to work with when I was a sales rep @ sprint. He told he has seen issue a couple of times. He says when that happens its a sensor issue. More common with fones that where 1st shipped out. He could of replaced it if I wanted but he wanted to avoid giving me a refurb. He did a couple of tests and it's been working since. He suggested if it happens again to bring it back again.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Loboman:
Works after a reboot. Seems to be the solution to every problem with that sensor. :(
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grant Barker:
I admit this is sometimes frustrating for me too. I'm curious as to a quick fix.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fen_nyc:
Ooo, quite lucky! This problem still exists for me after the update. Does not happen often; quite a pain to unlock the Note2 after a phone call.
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saurabh88:
thats a shame from samsung.they even not attended it. i have recently bought this freaking device and i stuck with this sensor problem.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] ysuleman:
So I am trying to decide what to get. The note 2 or the galaxy s3. I do not mind the size, so that is not issue. If any of you came from the s3, why did you jump ship? What makes you stick to the note 2 and not go to the s3. Any ideas why the note 2 is better? Can you see a difference in smoothness from the note 2 compared to the s3. Since the note 2 has the quad core.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] DNASTY6997:
Gave mom S3 and bought N2 day one, S3 is the 2nd best phone out by the note does so much. I have a business and coach and it's size makes doing those things easy. Definitely see a speed difference, better screen. U can get us to the size I'm thinking of going bigger. Again get the N2 it will amaze u.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Vanquiz:
I used S3 for couple months, until I hold Note2 at my local mall, they have Samsung expo or w/e, and after comparing the size, I decided that I can go bigger, and I fell in love with Note2 screen. After switch to Note2, definitely no regrets, smoother, faster, bigger screen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] fandroid93:
I love my Note II. Granted, I didn't come from an S3. But even still, if you don't mind the size of the phone then by all means go for it.

It is basicly a SIII but its newer, it has a better screen despite its dpi being lower because its not pentile, if you are on T-Mobile the Note has 42mbps HSPA+ instead of 21mbps, quadcore, bigger battery, and of cource the s pen.

Like I said, if you can deal with the size, which you will get used to unless your hands are just really small, its a much better choice. But in the end you can't go wrong with either one of them.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] woostar88:
I had samsung galaxy s3 and got the iphone 5. A month later, got the note 2. Never looked back ever since. Iphone feels slower. Like ten times slower than my note 2.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Coug76:
I came from the MT4GS. When I upgraded I also bought my wife the S3. I do prefer the GN2 but find that the S3 is perfectly capable.

The gn2 is a tad smoother and the screen is obviously bigger. The s-pen makes the comparison a non starter, the note taking fcn is unparalleled.

The gn2 does make one hand use very problematic due to size. I am also paranoid about screen breakage due to dropping the device (this phone has stated to develop a rep for breaking screens). The camera is pretty darned good (though the MT4GS camera was arguably better). Viewing video content or games simply cannot be beat. The screen is beautiful. Let me say it again, the screen is B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L. Did I mention I kinda like the screen. Oh, what is this lag thing that people on other devices keep talking about?

I hate the usb connection between the stock charging cord and the device, falls out with a stern look. My TPU case also puts a bind on the connector but that is my problem.

I don't know that it's $300 better than the S3 (price difference) at the time. I didn't pay that difference (it was about $100 with the deal I worked out). I certainly will not be getting rid of this device any time soon.

Hastily spouted for your befuddlement
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] rail205:
Came from an S3. And would never go back. Smoothness is way better and the screen is the perfect size. Seems big at first but after a couple of days you totally get used to it. Quad core and 2GB ram, and the Spen is pretty handy. Since I paid 350$ for the note 2 and sold my S3 for 350$ it was a no brainer.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] sprintuser1977:
Sold my s3 for my note 2 with no regrets. Its an awesome phone for sure but I couldn't pass go the big screen and spen.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] witeboy07:
Note 2 is the way of bigger Doesn't bother you. I sold my s3 and bought it outright. Well worth it, where you root it or not. Fast and smooth.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] KillaHurtz:
They are both beasts. The difference is the Galaxy SIII is the flagship, while the N2 is more of a niche item. Meaning the GS3 will always have more accessories and development. Both have 42+ HSPA capability, but the Note 2 has the true image and internals Samsung dreamed of. It is my 1st exynos device and I couldn't be happier.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] mingkee:
I came from S3 for a very specific reason: GN2 has "hidden" full Trad Chinese interface as well as native Changjei and hand writing methods with Swype. Frankly, battery on GN2 is definitely better than S3. According to my usage scheme:

S3 lasts 3-4 hours before switching battery

GN2 lasts almost 6 hours.

Larger screen makes reading e-books easier while it still can occupy shirt pocket (Galaxy Tab Plus can't).

Is it Possible to get Analog Video output from Galaxy S3?

the goal is to connect the sgs 3 to an Old Projector which has only analog chinch video input...

is there something like an adapterkable or a digital to analog-conversion box..?

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TBayTom:
Hi,

I'm currently using Task's AOKP Rom and after performing a TWRP nandroid backup to my external sd card.. My external sd card started having problems. When I rebooted back to AOKP it showed an sd card error in the notifications asking me to reformat.

I've used this 32gb sd card for 4 months, installing various AOSP and TW JB roms with no problems at all. Yes, I wipe and flash everything correctly. This seemed to just happen randomly. I plugged my phone into my computer and it only shows my internal sd card available. When I go to mnt/extsdcard in file explorer, it shows no files.

Does anyone know a way to get my ext sd card working again? I'd like to get access to my files.

Thanks,

Tom
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] TBayTom:
Update: it must just be my ext sd card... I plugged it into an adapter and it's not reading on my computer. My 8 gb version works fine but my 32 doesn't read at all. Any suggestions or is my sd card fried?

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shockem:
Hi guys,

I've been pondering over this. Maybe I could even consider the galaxy s3. What do you think?

The nexus 4 or the galaxy s3 or just stick with the galaxy nexus.

I live in singapore. So getting the nexus 4 is a little difficult. I could use eBay to find local sellers or from the US/UK/AUS.

I can also use sites that give me a us address to purchase. However, the play store has none in stock..

What do you recommend I do? Thanks.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Androyed:
I would stick with the Gnex. If I would have to choose between the N4 or the GSIII, I would choose the N4, simply because I wouldn't buy anything other than a Nexus device or something similar. And the price/performance ratio is just better.

But if I had the Gnex, I would stick with it. Sure, the N4 is better. Almost every new phone is better than the previous one. I would always skip one generation though. I had the Nexus S, and now I have the Nexus 4. If you skip one generation, you really feel change. Not saying that you won't feel change if you come from a Gnex though.

It's a personal preference and we can't really help you with that. The only legit reason to get a N4 (versus getting another phone) that I can think of is the price. But the cheapest is to just use your Gnex for another year.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fataldesain:
Well since you can't order one I would say stick with the gal nex. Only if your leaving a ****ty place like sprint for T-Mobile and your old phone won't work. I don't think the nexus 4 is that great it doesn't feel as fast as I expected. Also I hate the nexus 4 screen.

But on T-Mobile I get really fast data and my bill is 100 bucks less a month.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tengen:
+1 on staying with the Gnex, especially since getting your hands on a N4 would be a pain. I wouldn't bother getting an S3 either; you might as well wait a bit and pick up the S4 when it comes out...

Are you unhappy with your Gnex for some reason, or just thinking about an upgrade?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] barondebxl:
+1 on this, right now I think everyone should stick with whatever phone they have and be ready for a 2013 android phones invasion. There will be so many great choices, just a little more patience.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zephiK:
But yet they will probably release with the older Android version JellyBean 4.1.X. Which is always like that because last CES released 4.0.X when 4.1.X was already out.

I disagree, Nexus devices will always be on the top of the chain in terms of ROM and kernel development and the best stock experience possible. No carrier restrictions, no bloatware, not receiving updates 5-7 months later. Not to mention this phone will be one of the first devices to receive Android 5.0.X. Galaxy Nexus remained relevant all of last year regardless of all phones being released. Once a Nexus, always a Nexus.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mackster248:
It all depends on your budget.

Paid a total of $370ish with tax for my N4, but was able to sell my GN for $300 shortly after. So for 70 bucks it was worth it for me.

The upgrade is undoubtedly worth it though, the speed increase and over all performance is a world's better on the N4 compared to my old GN.

Good luck!

Try Swappa. I got tired of waiting for my shipping confirmation from my order on Nov 13th, so I canceled it, and on Dec 2nd, I bought a BNIB 16GB off Swappa for $410. I paid $15 more and got mine in 3 days. I've never owned a GNex though so I can't comment on it. But I can tell you, this is the best device I have ever owned, and I will own nothing but Nexus from here on out. :D
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mobileboost:
It's not much of an upgrade IMO. I'd wait for the next phone, but that's just me. It's not like you will run a different OS or anything. Cameras are good on both, good specs on both, good displays, and you'll have to rebuy accessories.

It's your call though :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] nvan7891:
Any luck?

I believe these keys are created and/or registered when the phone is initially paired with the account. Removing the phone/esn from the account and adding it back on will fix 3g/4g in the case of a board swap, but that doesn't really help your particular situation. I have swapped a motherboard successfully before this twice, without using the logcat method, but I can't for the life of me recall how. I'd prefer figuring out how to do it manually again, its bugging the crap out of me. That, and just for the sake of learning.

Edit: I got it. It's a pain in the ass now because of updates since then. I was just able to retrieve NV item 1192 using the EFS tab in DFS while running the LJ7 rom with the LG2 modem. NV reader will still say access denied, but once you read the EFS, the "nvm" folder isn't red and locked like it is on newer roms and modems. I remember the LJ7+LG2 combo was necessary to get the spc/msl a while back as well.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BigMosley:
Now that I believe this is supported with JB on our phone has anyone used a ps3 controller to properly play any games like GTA 3? If so is it as simply as plug and play or so you have to go through a setup and tweak it to your needs like the Sixaxis controller app is? Where did you purchase your otg adapter/how much was it? Thanks in advance.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] KaoMinerva:
OTG does work on JB, BUT it won't read ps controller with six axis... Tried millions of times. Flash CMX... pair controller... And then flash back to sense or whatever and it will work flawlessly. This is what I do and GTA will automatically read the controller... No need to set a profile or anything

***Your Tears Are Sweet Ladies & Social Rejects***
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] nickmus:
You don't need the cord to connect them if it the dual shock (wireless).

Install sixaxes on the phone and run it. On the bottom it will show the bt address.

on a computer, install the sixaxis connection tool and run it. next, connect the Sony controller to the computer using a mini usb to usb cord. A dialog no will pop up. In the there will be a master #. Below that is an input box. Copy the bt address from the phone into the input box in the pop up on the computer. and submit it.

Now disconnect the controller from the computer. Hit the start button on on the phone. Next hit the connect button on the controller. You should now be paired.

I never use a cable. Just use the Sixaxis app and my PS3 controller and play wireless. It's 2013, we don't need no freaking wires between our devices!! Lol

PS3 controller with Sixaxis app and HTC Media Link makes my Evo LTE like a PlayStation. HDMI-miniHDMI in place of the Media Link makes my Asus Infinity like a PlayStation. Though I have a PS3 and an XBOX right beside them, it's just fun to do on my mobile devices just because I can, haha.

The cable is just to pair the control to the sixaxis app after that he isn't going to use the cable until he has to re-pair them

I didn't have a good experience with the Sixaxis app. I spent a while trying to make it flow seamlessly as if it was a ps3 and it never worked right. That's why I'd rather just hopefully hook up the otg adapter to my controller then play with no issues.
