[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] gregory15:
I looked at your link in your sig initially - I agree - lots of stuff there. But, at the same time - the word "sprint" doesn't even show up on the page. I am also not familiar with the naming of the Sprint SPH-L710 as T999 and shy away from the possibility of flashing the wrong variation of zips on my Sprint phone. So, sorry I may have missed what may have been obvious - I am still researching what this may mean for my future reference.

The http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1910947 link specifically mentioned the MD4 firmware specific to Sprint. My only screwup was flashing the kernel zip - that was boneheaded. But, clearly, reflashing the nightly problem fixed that for me. So, no harm done.

thanks again for your help - you absolutely sent me in the right direction. I have several other people that are being resolved too.

****

Update - oh, the other link in you sig. Ok, I see where you were going - I was looking at the wrong link. The terminology of the "trouble flashing latest builds" didn't stick out to me. Still - thanks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
The SPH-L710 is the sprint s3, you were in the international(i9300) forum earlier as well. DO NOT flash anything for any model except the SPH-L710, especially international roms and kernels, unless you want a new paperweight/door stop. You need to take a break and do some thorough reading before you break your new toy.

Crap.. Sorry bro. I also support the L710 and simply copied and pasted the information but completely forgot to include the MD4 firmware.

Thanks for clearing that up for me.

just edited my signature now!

I support both forums. I made the mistake of copying and pasting my information and didn't include my link to the MD4 firmware. Honest mistake. My apologies.

I already edited my signature though
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
It's all good I was just wondering who was confused there, and wanted to clear it up before something bad happens. With all the different models of s3 gotta be extra careful to avoid bricking. I always recommend everyone to go by the model number and not the device name just to be safe.

[HTC Sensation] s0ftcorn:
Hey there,

i have sometimes a problem with my keyboard. At the moment i use swiftkey, but this bug also appears with the stock keyboard (see my signature for details on my device). The bug can be fixed temporary by rebooting, restarting the shell aka hot rebooting or by closing all apps, but none of these work everytime, well of course a reboot does work everytime.

The bug itself is quite strange: When i want to type something the device realizes im touching it ( if you know what i mean ), the app also realizes this by displaying the bigger picture of the key and by giving my some suggestions (of course based on the one letter that i "typed"), but there appears no input on the input field, even if i "click" on one of the suggestions.

Cleaning the caches helped nothing and a friend of mine has the same problem on a HTC Desire HD with ARHD-Rom.

Anyone any idea?

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MeX_DK:
When I sync with google all the contact images I have on the various contacts sync over fine. But the second I sync with facebook etc those default images gets overwritten with whatever stupid image people had decided to use on facebook.

Is there no clever or smart way for me to define which i want to use as a default, like you can do if people has several numbers, in that case you can define what you want as the default one etc. But I have been unable to find one for contacts :(

The only way so far I have been able to actually get the contact photos I want, is through defining them manually all over again, which means I have to find the image on my phone, choose to replace the image I already got and recrop it in order to get the image I want to show. And naturally the second facebook etc decided to take a dump and have a resync its rinse and repeat and its annoying me greatly :(

So is there any supported and/or smart solution to go about this rather then having to manually define all the images over again on a regular basis?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rexkh:
Hi

As much as I knew, There are 4 volume types in Android Phone. They are "Ringer Volume", "Media Volume", "Alarm Volume", and "Volume". But the volumes which are adjustable in Settings are only "Ringer Volume" and Alarm Volume" in Settings - Audio Profiles. I can't find where to adjust "Media Volume" and "Volume".
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s2+user:
Hi Rexkh,

you should find those four types under Settings | Sound or Audio | Volume (first item for me)
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rexkh:
I'm using Android version 2.3.6. There is only Audio Profiles in Setting. No "Sound and Audio" in Setting.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s2+user:
Don't know anything about 2.3.6, started with 4.1.2 :(

If you press the volume button, is there by any chance an optional icon? At my S2 I can reach three of those sound settings. But maybe they implemented those volume settings in a later version than 2.3.6?
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yosterwp:
I really can't help you out with Android 2.3.6, however, if you cannot find it, you can try downloading an app like "Volume Control +" from the Play Store to change all volumes. If you want quicker access to the app, you could also try a gesture-app-launcher like SwipePad (also found on the Play Store).

Just a note, many times the volumes you can change with the physical volume buttons on your device vary depending on the app you are in.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] melvinchng:
Yes, i use volume control when i'm in android 2.3

Well i got the galaxy s4 yesterday so i will no longer be using the vivid. im gonna miss its horrible battery life, shoddy sense 3.6 ui, etc. but im gonna mis you guys. farewell.:crying:
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
See ya around man, you'll be happier trust me, I really don't miss my vivid much at all!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jtsurfs:
How is the Nexus 4 on AT&T? do you get HSPA? or is it strictly 2g/EDGE?
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
Yeah I get hspa+, usually 6-12mb, it's not bad at all. Just make sure they don't mess with your plan and put the apn in from your vivid, otherwise you'll get stuck on the regular 3G plan. At&t did that to my wife.

Actually it was a big mess. I got mine in January, and I needed a micro sim. I went to the store, and the manager ended up taking care of me, and she gave me a micro sim, didn't mess with my account, and I was on my way. Well when my wife got hers in march, same thing went in there for a micro sim, but got a regular employee this time. When we got back her data wouldn't work at all! So I checked the account, and for whatever reason the idiot deleted her data plan all together! So I call at&t and get it back but they put her on the regular 3G plan for smartphones and the Vivid apn wouldn't even connect! Finally I talked to an employee on live chat the next day and got them to put her back on the lte plan!

So make sure they don't tamper with your account! Either that or get a sim cutter and try it out!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jtsurfs:
I've been thinking about getting either the Nexus 4 or the LG optimus G. Basically the same phone, I have another year on my contract but the Vivid is quickly dying out. After that I will probably jump to Tmobile as it will be cheaper than AT&T even with my corporate discount.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
Yeah the nexus 4 was a no brainer for me, I was sick of my vivid, and I am under contract until march 2014, so it was the cheapest option. It's a nice phone especially for the price. But its not perfect either, I will warn you. Camera is a downgrade from the vivid, it doesn't suck, and in well lit rooms the camera is just as nice. But in low light, the vivid owns it. Also build quality doesn't suck but it's not built as nice as the vivid. It seems well built out of the box, but there are gaps between the screen and bezel that tend to get dust stuck in them and over time the back glass develops a slight creaking sound to it. Also the chrome around the outside edges gets scuffed, poor design choice imo, should of used a flat silver instead.

Figured I'd lay it to you straight. It's an excellent phone but it's not perfect. And make sure you get a case if you get one, back glass is very slick and the phone tends to make suicide dives on its own when you just sit it down. Happened to me twice, luckily, no damage.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jtsurfs:
Thanks! I actually dropped my vivid yesterday from about waist high, luckily I always have a case on my phone. NO damage.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] davidsinnergeek:
I know what you mean.

When my wife's Galaxy 2 Skyrocket got its SECOND upgrade (originally Gingerbread, upgraded to ICS, then upgraded to Jellybean) and when HTC said that the Vivid would NOT get an upgrade to Jellybean, that was what made my mind up that this was the last HTC phone that I would own. I've had three, but I am done with HTC. That S4 looks sooooo good!

[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] jtsurfs:
My Optimus G arrives Friday, looks like just in time as the forum is dying again (the 2nd time since I have had my Vivid.)
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] Cor-master:
Yeah the phone is getting old and people are getting their early upgrades now. If cyanogenmod would of came last summer, development might still be going but now, too little too late.

Lesson learned for me, if it's not a popular device, don't upgrade to it. Yeah at first I was happy but a couple months in, the honeymoon was over and the bugs of sense 3.6 that were never address, terrible battery life, and no actual roms outside of modified stock roms had me plotting a plan to get a galaxy nexus... But by the time I had the money, the nexus 4 was out, and well that's a no brainer :)

In the light of the new FW update and the problem with getting root access I was wondering - why do people want to have root access.

I like to have my device rooted, but actually I can't think of any functions or apps I use that require root - other than flashing an occasional MOD that needs it to install. Oh - and I like to use Root FTP so I can transfer files on my home wireless network and not need a USB cable. And I use the advanced root requiring options in BetterBatteryStats.

I agree with your point, my device is also not rooted and I am happy with my device current status, having more than 100 apps in my phones. I have heard that rooting sometimes brick your phone, or sometimes less stable than stock Rom. The developers of stock rom are obviously not illiterate instead they have super knowledge, if you think they are not then you probably need some real rest. No offence.

Uninstalling Sony bloatware trial rubbish.

Fix problems with the phone, like WIFI because the same problem exists with the new firmware.

Adaway, forgot how good this application works until I didn't have it.

Connect my DSLR via usb cable to full control my camera from the phone including liveview.

Lightflow led notification works better with root.

Installing mods like making those horrible softkeys smaller, pureaudio...

Can change the DPI of my screen to get some benefit from the full HD screen.

Mod the headphones so the skip track keys actually skips the tracks and not just adjusting volume.

It is pointless cause it is a simple question. A question that has been answered a billion times.

You can Google it and there's a bunch of articles, forums, etc... That already answered this question.

Or maybe use the search button in xda.

Number 1 rule on xda: search before you post.

Not hard to read the rules, don't you agree?

Flooding the forum with useless threads is unnecessary, especially when it is already answered. And especially when other unnecessary threads like how to root 253 is flooding the forums.

PS: Here I provided you with the links as well.

you're welcome :)
[Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LosserKlosser:
I disagree that it is pointless. With the links you gave me there's a lot of reasons why rooted units have advantages, yes.

But by asking in a forum where people use the same device as I do, use the same software as I do and get the same errors as I do the answers here are more relevant to me - and maybe others in this section of XDA as well.

Sure, we can just search and Google everything and rely on simple answers without debate but it seems to me that you will end up with a sterile and stale forum where people are not allowed to just talk.

If mods find that this thread is spam and a source of flooding XDA, a breaking of the rules and regulations and unconstructive, then mods should by all means close the thread.

I wouldn't want to use up all the space on the Internet, or destroy this forum with wear and tear from my pointless thread.
