As that is a CM10 ROM I bet it's the system/usr/keylayout/Generic.kl file. Change the 'key 95 ...' line to 'key 95 POWER WAKE' but that changes only lock/unlock. To switch our OB on after you switched it completly off you need to repair the hardware, but funny thing is if it's charging the power button still works (most of the time) on my OB and a friend has the same with his OB.

no way to change poweer bottom to any key ?? not hardware plz it very expensive
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeFCaputo113:
Sweet!

Just a rumor though. Hopefully it's true! And usually Sammobile is very accurate.

**Credit to rwilco12 for finding this**
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] poit:
Your Source (SamMobile) really doesn't pay much attention to US Spec phones. If you notice they are talking about international models. I wouldn't extrapolate that info to mean anything about our phones.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeFCaputo113:
If the GS2 got Jellybean why the heck wouldn't we get 4.2.2/5.0............
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] poit:
With our phones, it's not just up to Samsung. Qualcomm (because of CDMA tweaks) and Sprint are also involved in producing the ROMs.

Sprints s2 aka the epic touch 4g hasn't got jellybean 4.2 yet... i have both phones

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Visionikz03:
Sprint is not going to waste their time updating a phone from two generations ago (GS2) to Jellybean when the GS4 is coming with Jellybean! That would be a big marketing mistake on Sprint's part. Not to mention the whole CDMA thing which complicates matters even more. We all Sprint is the least profitable of the big 4 US carriers so they aren't going to shoot themselves in the foot like that. Not to mention, those subscribers who still have the GS2 will not be as excited to upgrade to the GS4 if the android version is the same. Sprint wants them to upgrade! GS2 and GS3 will not get these updates from Sprint I am willing to put money on it lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rocket321:
Um ok, GS3 already has jellybean and GS2 has had multiple jellybean leaked roms so we know they are working on it. Keep in mind the cdma GS2 was just released for Boost and Virgin Mobile within the past couple months and has not been put on end of life by sprint yet, so it is still receiving support funding for software updates.

Also if you were familiar with the update life cycle of top tier samsung phones on sprint e.g. The GS1 & GS2 you would see 2 full years of android version upgrades is the norm not the exception. Look for the GS2 to get 4.1.2 and be EOL end of this year, and the GS3 to get its final update next year and EOL end of next year.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Slomodrop:
Premium Suite still hasn't made it to USA S3s. It's not anywhere near a sure thing GS3 will get Android K. My guess is 4.2 with premium suite and some GS4 features after GS4 has been available in the market for a good while, then Sammy will be pretty much done with GS3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GuestK00145:
Samsung like to update their U.S phones with the latest features after the launch It's newest flagship. So, after the GS4 is available in the US that's when we'll see an update.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Overstew:
Honestly, as far as Carriers go, I believe Sprint is the best when it comes to OS updates. AT&T probably comes in second. And I'm basing this off carrier-specific phones, not international devices on GSM carriers.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] GiantJay:
Sprint was bought by Softbank by the way. They have mass amounts of money to spend. And they are not 4th in profits. Basically your whole statement is false. http://allthingsd.com/20130318/hesse-masayoshi-son-met-with-fcc-to-pitch-softbank-sprint-deal/
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] || Acer ||:
I don't understand why anyone is surprised by this. Every Galaxy S phone has been updated to two major versions of android.

Galaxy S (eclair) - froyo and gingerbread

GSII (gingerbread) - ICS and jelly bean

It only makes sense that that the gs3 would get the same treatment and be updated to Key Lime Pie when it's only had one major update (jelly bean)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kayakaddict:
I really like the phone as is, but 4.2 is pretty sweet!!!!

I believe we will get it, but they are focused on getting the GS4 selling right now so they will likely wait another 6 months or so.

Right now, you gotta pay to play with the official 4.2 phones.....or go the CM10 route which has bugs.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JoeFCaputo113:
Liquid Smooth all the way. No bugs what so ever. Running 4.2.2

Sent From My Samsung Galaxy S3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] TheSocalGuy79:
I don't see the S2 getting Jelly Bean 4.2 update. That phone is to old for that. I see the S3 getting the 4.2 update though, but probably not the 5.0 though. By then most will have upgraded to the S4 or whatever Samsung has out.

Sent from my stock rooted Galaxy S3
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] adamdelozier:
I respectfully disagree. After looking at the specs for the s4, I think most people will probably hold out for the S 5. It looks like some minimal hardware upgrades and mostly software upgrades, which I believe the s3 will handle very easily. just my humble opinion though

All Battery results are on a 6300mah battery, unless otherwise noted!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] phippsy84:
We'll have to wait an see. Would rather get one that is tested and none to work then see them push to release one that is buggy.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] scottxpilgrim12:
Hopefully 4.2 comes to the us galaxy s3 none of them got premium suite update feature just the 4.1.2 that's all
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] twig49:
It could also be that Samsung, not the carriers, puts the brakes on the S3 in favor of selling (forcing) the S4. Like when Moto stopped supporting the Photon (then a flagship device) within 6 months in order to sell more new "flagship devices" rather than update existing usable consumer products. Consumers who bought into the "latest,greatest" Moto had to offer at the time thinking they would be good for at least a couple years of contract.

It's a double edge sword where someone is going to get cut, no matter if it's from the carrier who doesn't want to spend the money to add their junk, or the manufacture who doesn't want to update "old" products.

With the devices of today, and the power they have, I see the trend moving more and more to the rooting/dev. arena to make existing devices more usable for longer periods of time.

Tech is so far advanced that now, within the terms of a typical 2 year contract, not much can be added to make a consumer justify the cost unless they just HAVE to be "better" than anyone else.

Having said that, the easiest way to continue new sales is to stop developing/supporting "older" devices.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MJGirl:

Hi, I'm also considering to buy this phone (presently I've Neo V). Can to tell me whether (i) the applications installed in the phone be moved to sd card and (ii) If a large game like NFS Most Wanted is installed, does it use sd card to store additional game data?
[Sony Xperia L] ishanbhatnagr96:
Sadly, as it is running Jelly Bean, you can not move apps to external storage! Also, there are a few games which can be installed on Sd-Card as they have some kind of an option. About the memory of the phone, you get about 1gigs of phone memory and 4-5gigs of internal storage! And i have installed 2 HD games! RR3 and MW!

I would recommend you, to buy this phone! Really good performance in benchmarks and also in gaming! :good:
[Sony Xperia L] Drifter2410:
Awesome Phone. Bought it one day after it released in India

Hey guys, I bought Xperia L and I must say this is one of the best phones available in the mid range android phones. The benchmarks are off the charts. The graphics performance, the gaming, the music, the interface is just awesome. The battery backup is more than one day in Normal mode and over 3 days in Stamina Mode. (See my Usage below) The camera is top-notch and the HDR mode Rocks. No lag with any game be it HD games or little ones like Temple Run 2 and Subway Surfers. I have attached my AnTuTu benchmark score with the post. If you're planning to buy it, dont wait.

Battery Usage :

My usage is 1-2 hrs Gaming.

Always on Internet 2G/3G shifting, Wi-Fi almost always on.

Autosync on.

Apps like Whatsapp, Gmail, Facebook, Facebook Pages Manager, Hike (Indian Messenger), Hangouts (Gtalk) are always on.

Enabled data and almost continuous use.

Surfing the internet.

Messaging (SMS).

Calls.

Almost 1 hr of music.

Even then this gives one day. :)

Anyone planning on rooting it and maybe well, developing CM for it? xD Wish I had the resources to do the latter one. Should be easy as it's Snapdragon.
[Sony Xperia L] yogeshm.007:
It has 1 Ghz Dual Core Krait, Adreno 305, 1 GB Ram and JB, even then it is only twice as fast as my Neo V :(

I'm satisfied with Neo V, only problem is with 3G... Internet is not accessible at times even though it is shown as connected to 3G. Restarting the phone usually solves the problem.

Still I'll be buying Xperial L in a month or two, after its price stabilises, and hand over my Neo V to my wife (who is using my age old W580i)!

[Sony Xperia L] DeviousFusion:
Yeah I just did. Just bought this device for Rs.16k..nice deal eh..? :D
[Sony Xperia L] Wumbo7:
Just bought this device a few days ago. Very nice device. I noticed some bugs though.

Apparently most Xperia phones have trouble with class 10 cards? I was told so by someone from the chat support on sonymobile, as reason why my 16 GB Transcend class 10 microSD card gave an error ("Blank SD or unsupported filesystem"). I guess that's normal?

Well, the other problem. The notification light only shows one color (some combination between purple, green and white, looks white-ish), even though I changed the LED color in the settings of an app (Whatsapp, Textra for example). The LED works fine in the album and music app. It lights up in the correct color when I change the theme. Does anyone else have this bug? Or is it normal? I'm going back to the store on monday, because the chat support said that if it wasn't fixed after a update repair in SUS, I should have it repaired/changed.
[Sony Xperia L] CRaSH3k:
I've received my Xperia L yesterday and can confirm the exact same problem.

The notification LED only lights up in one color and can not be changed. Even Apps like "Light Flow" or "LEDBlinker" do not work as theys should and always show a white-ish color.

Within the Sony-Apps as the Gallery-App or the Design-settings the color of the LED works just perfect.

Please keep me/us updated, if you find any solution for this problem. Or if the Device really needs to be repaired. Thanks!
[Sony Xperia L] Wumbo7:
Hmm, the thing is, I haven't found any video or confirmation that our device should have color LED notifications.. Your case makes me think that it is normal, but we need more people confirming if this is indeed normal or not. I don't really want to return it, as the store where I bought it is a bit far and I could use my time better studying for my exam :p If there are more people with the white-ish LED notification, I don't think a replacement is going to fix it, otherwise I'll try it and try to report back next week.
[Sony Xperia L] CRaSH3k:
For me the different colors for notifications was one of my most wanted features on this phone.

And I can't believe that they build in a RGB-LED and the only use for it would be, that it lights up while you browse the gallery.

That would just be a waste...

I really hope that the developers can find a way to get access to the LED with their apps, so we can use it as it sould be used: For notifications!
[Sony Xperia L] Wumbo7:
I know that feel.. I discovered this tidbit in the user manual, it seems that it definitely should have different color notifications!

"A notification light also gives you battery status information and some notifications. For example, a flashing blue light means there is a new message or a missed call. The notification light may not work when the battery level is low."

Source: http://userguide.sonymobile.com/ref...oduct=xperia-l#!Status-and-notifications.html

So I e-mailed the store and I'll try to get a new device by monday. Will report back if it all worked out (or didn't.. *crosses fingers*).
[Sony Xperia L] Wumbo7:
Update on the notification LED issue:

I found another person having the same problem on the xperia support forums: http://talk.sonymobile.com/thread/132402

It makes me think that maybe it is intended by Sony.. (The Xperia SP is advertised as that phone with the cool illumination strip, it wouldn't make sense if the lower end device got the same feature minus the transparent strip, right?).
[Sony Xperia L] CRaSH3k:
I also got an update on the notification LED issue:

I've tested several apps from the play-store now and finally found one that could work (if the developer is so kind

to adjust some things). The app is called "Illumination Bar" and labeled to work with the Xperia S/P & U.

Now if you set "Xperia U" as your device in the settings of the app, you can fully control the RGBvalue of the LED via

"Set Theme Color"-option. So the LED on our devices is not broken!!

But unfortunately the notification-settings of the app do not work corectly for our device...

Here is a short video I've done to show the behaviour of the app with the Xperia L:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fin4x9R8nQ

I've just contacted the developer and asked them, if they could/would extend the app to work with the Xperia L.

Fingers crossed! I'll keep you updated...
[Sony Xperia L] Wumbo7:
Nice find! I can set the color for my sms, the first blink is white-ish, the following blinks are of the desired color!

It doesn't seem to work for whatsapp, it breaks the notification for it. scratch that, the notification is delayed with a few seconds, but it works (even plays nice with floating notifications)

Haven't tested it for other apps yet, but does seem promising.

I wonder why the Sony rep would recommend me to get it repaired, if it isn't a real issue...

Regarding the colored LED management for notifications: try Light Flow (sorry can't post outside links yet)

I used it on a few Xperia phones, and so far gets the job done nicely on the Xperia L...

On the Xperia Mini Pro (SK17i), there are some native issues with the LED not starting when the phone is not active.

Works perfect on Xperia P.
[Sony Xperia L] Wumbo7:
Illumination Bar is the only app at the moment that gets the XL LED to change color.. I tried Light flow and other apps and it still stayed white. I could be confused with another app, since I tried so many of them.
