[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] azamataz buckshank:
Yes from what I have been reading that is what I am gathering as well, although I have not seen anything official from Samsung. These things always seem to be speculated.

If we don't see a "leak" here within a couple weeks I'll start digging into the international software/firmware.

Thanks, Doc
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
No problem.

And regarding leaks, you won't hear a peep from Sammy.

For a few months last year we got a leak a week almost! Never heard much of anything prior though. It'd just be up on samfirmware.com or Samsung-updates.com.

Oh I how wish they didn't cut off those servers! That was a whole lot of fun for me!

[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] texaslittleangel:
For some odd reason, the phone gets very hot while I am on a call. It doesn't happen all the time though. Calls are quite short (no more than 10 min).

Can anybody shed some light as to how to fix this glitch?

Cheers! :D
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravitysandwich:
Try a different kernel and set the threshold really low. Recommend Franco. Also what's your exact temp?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] texaslittleangel:
42.2C

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
thats not really hot, warm maybe, hot no. your body temp is 37C, water boils at sea level at 100C.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] texaslittleangel:
But is it normal for it to get to that temperature in 5 min?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
yes. depending on the background temperature too, and youre keeping it insulated in your hand.. if it was the middle of winter in new york city, and you were outside talking on the phone, it wouldnt ever reach that temp. but when its warmer, it can get there fast.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gravitysandwich:
That's extremely cool and normal, no worries. But I have hit CPU shutdown limit (90° C) because it was to hot. Here's a screenshot I took before it shutdown.

Edit: I was gaming while charging on 3g and this was in Illinois like a month ago so weather wasn't hot. Lol I didn't know after my fingers started burning I needed to cool this phone down
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simms22:
gaming while charging can do it. so can streaming a flash movie while charging. plus your battery will get very hot.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] texaslittleangel:
Mine was just a phone call hence why I thought it was a bit too much for 5 min. I don't usually give the phone heavy use and it normally remains pretty cool. I might just still change the kernel
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] myktek:
I went and tried to purchase Kainy from the Play Store and it said the phone doesn't support carrier billing and made me add a cc to Google Wallet in order to pay for it.

I didn't have this problem previously, I'm currently on the latest update 4.1.2 (June 2013 release with stock injected root).

Anyone else notice this?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] Rhiannon224:
I always had a cc on file to use the Play Store. I didn't know there was another option.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] MikeYuse0406:
I'm also on the latest stock md1 firmware with root. I don't have a problem paying for my play store purchases with my tmobile bill.

In fact, my all access was just paid along with 2 apps I just purchased a few minutes ago. I never use my credit card on my Google wallet account.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] myktek:
Apparently it was that particular app, Kainy
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note II] JQuest81:
I've been having this problem for almost two months now. It started by declining my purchases made with my T-Mobile account with an error code [BM-CPE-16] then it declined me without the error code. Fast forward to today, it gave me a pop-up message saying it was trying to verify my mobile phone account, then decline me to then telling me it couldn't verify it and to try again later. Now the carrier billing option is gone altogether. I thought it was because my GS 4 was rooted, but my sister's phone which isn't rooted at all has no carrier billing option either.

I haven't been in contact with Google Play/T-Mobile today, but over the past couple months I've been in contact off and on with them and they said it's some sort of tecnical issue or something between the two and they are working on getting it resolved, and they had no official time frame as to when it will be fixed. I may bug them tomorrow though just to seen if this is a T-Mobile wide issue. Hope that helps you a little bit?
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] wified:
After hearing crackling noises from low impedance headphones,

( see THIS THREAD for more discussion of this problem)

I found a guy on eBay who made me a custom 15 ohm adapter. It works to eliminate the audio problems!

3.5mm TRRS -> 3.5mm TRRS 15 Ohm adapter

I also asked him to make me one for the Plantronics 2.5mm Headset that I have used in my car for the past several years, which gave much buzzing on my new S4. This solved the problem, as does that adapter above, if you just plug in your existing 3.5->2.5 headset adapter.

3.5mm TRRS -> 2.5mm headset 15 Ohm adapter

The nice thing about these two adapters is that they are narrow plugs, meaning that they work easily with cases.

Hope this helps. It has solved the audio crackling problems for me.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] Justblazeitup:
Nice. I haven't had this problem yet but I have read about the issue. Glad to see a fix should the problem arise for me.
[Galaxy S 4 Accessories] wified:
Apparently, this audio crackling

has been solved

by the .BMEA update from Samsung on the i9505. Other S4 versions have not yet received this update, and when they do, those of us with the i337 and locked bootloader, won't be updating until we're sure that this update doesn't break the ability to unlock the bootloader. So, we'll probably be needing this solution a little longer for the i337.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] niallmac:
Hi,

I got a new S3 mini I8190, unlocked sim free, 8GB. I plugged it into my existing USB charger (single port 750mA, Sony) while it was switched off and it charged to 100%. All fine. So, I set it up with sim card, SD card and apps and then charged it again, this time the phone was switched on. It appeared to be charging fine, but the charging topped out at around 87%. It wouldn't go any higher. I tried a load of testing, killing services, switching off wifi, using a different battery etc etc. However, it turns out that any USB charger will charge this phone, but only up to a certain level. So a 500mA charger would only take it to around 75% charge. The charger that came with the phone (rated at 750mA) fully charges the battery as does a 1A supply I have.

Question, is this normal for this device or have I got a duff phone?

Thanks in advance,

Niall
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Databorg:
i also have a 500mA charger. charge to 100% but it's taking almost a day to complete if the device is on
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ShinOrochiX:
Would the CM7 browser work on our stock GB? By this I mean would the apk have to be modded or can it just be pushed into the system and run?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] MZay:
well as far as I know the default browser we get in gingerbread is same one that is available in CM7 because it is the native android browser.

Correct me if I am wrong guys
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ShinOrochiX:
No, I think they are slightly different, the CM7 browser has Incognito Mode feature whilst the stock GB browser doesn't. I suppose I will have to test it myself by replacing apk's...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] ShinOrochiX:
I backed up and replaced the stock 2.3.4 browser with the CM7 browser from the official coconut CM7 ROM, then I cleared cache and data, changed permissions and rebooted. Now when I tap the browser icon I get FC's, why is this? :confused:

Hi guys, we are two italian freelancer developer and we have published this app some days ago.

LINK PLAY STORE

Here the market description:

We need some feedback to improve user experience and to implement other features!

We are offering support for testers on google+
[Testing] ronelio:
Installing... I'll post results later!
[Testing] Faaipke:
Great, simple app. Bought premium version after day's use.

Suggestions

1/ option to change font (also bold, italics,...)

2/ delivery report check in outgoing sms

3/ mms, of course :)

Looking forward to see this app developing. Keep it up! And thanks!
[Testing] ronelio:
Here my feedback:

a. This app is good, has a clear interface and is very simple to use;

b. If there was a PIN to protect SMS it would great.

c. The limit of characters in SMS is 60, right? If there was an option to choose the limit... My provider offers 160 characters.

d. The option to choose themes is blocked, it will be great if user can choose only one.
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] witeboy07:
I was trying earlier and I guess its not available for this Phone. You have to do the power and home button trick. That sucks!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] Kangburra:
Mine works by swiping, have you turned it on?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] witeboy07:
Never mind. I guess the sensor has to see your hand. :/?
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] jimmbomb:
Could you please explain just how to 'turn it on'

And how to do a palm swipe screenshot?

This will be useful to other new users too and a great reference.

Thanks a... And I've added a thanks to Kangburra!
[Samsung Galaxy Mega] witeboy07:
I didnt turn nothing on. Its already on. All you have to do is swipe but make sure the sensors up by the camera see the tips of your fingers.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] afextwin:
So I flashed my VZW Galaxy Nexus i515 32GB to Page Plus, successfully, but now I want to put it back on my contract line (with unlimited DATA), the problem is, my 4g sim card is active and works in other phones, but I can't seem to get my Nexus to recognize it.

Let me back up, the nexus recognized the sim card, but could not connect to data (talk n text only). So I used Odin 1.83 to flash 4.0.2 stock PDA/PHONE and checked EFS clear. Phone rebooted, and I had no signal. So I downloaded the latest fastboot images from googol and flashed them. Still no signal. Checked the SIM card in an s3 and it works.

So I'm guessing that EFS clear did not wipe the settings that were programmed by ETSI.

Does anyone have a script or any info on getting this phone restored?

TIA,

afex

EDIT: I had to flash a toroplus rom/radio and then ##RTN to restore NV settings to default factory settings. I then flashed the latest official build for toro from google's stock image repo (4.1.2 at the time), after that I rooted, installed TWRP and then wiped dalvik/cache just to make sure. Radio's were restored successfully.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Gladiat0r:
Hello all,

I know this has been asked before, but I never found any answers in the other threads. I'm not sure if that's because there is no answer to this question, or nobody looked around enough.

So the question is, are there any alternatives to Lifeproof cases for our device? I'm not talking about universal waterproof bags or anything like that. I mean a legitimate case. Something that is both rugged, and waterproof.

I've emailed Seidio, asking about the OBEX for our device. I got a big "No" in response.

Does anyone know of an alternative?

Thanks.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] joshm.1219:
I'm pretty sure I've seen every case online for this phone and I've seen no life proof alternatives.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Double0EK:
Get an iOttie water proof skin and put it in an Otterbox Defender.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Gladiat0r:
What's the reliability of those skins? I don't have any experience with them.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
The answer for the case is NO, we've contacted all the too manufacturers and there all said that the spen precludes them from making such a case.

It looks like we're all stuck with waterproof skins.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] D3_:
How exactly does the s-pen stop them from making such a case? Surely if anything it'll just be a bit less accurate due to the way it works. It doesn't have to be touching the screen at all for it to register a touch and you can make it more or less sensitive too.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] planetbeen:
Because if the case is water tight and the spen is stored in the phone.....how do you get the spen out?

They don't want to find a way and they refuse to make a case if you can't remove and use the spen while using the case even though probably 99%

Of note 2 users wouldnt care and just want a stinking waterproof case!

Sent From My Ginormous Note 2
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
I agree, I would sacrifice the use of an spen if such a case was needed. I wish these companies could understand that... Just seal the damn spen in cause if you ever needed a life proof case you're not going to be taking notes.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] D3_:
Could also have it clip onto an optional holder on the side or something
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Gladiat0r:
I agree. I could do without my SPen for the sake of a waterproof case.

Does anyone have an idea of how large of a demand these companies would need to develop a case for this? There's millions of Note II's out there. There has to be a good chunk willing to buy a case like this.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Double0EK:
I commented on Siedio's Facebook about the OBEX and their response was because of the Spen functionality loss.
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] Gladiat0r:
Could we petition this or something? Or a revolution. Yes. I like that idea. We can have slogans and everything.

"Give me waterproof cases, or give me death!"

Found this:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/300921205658?hlp=false&var=

I've seen this case in this forum before, but I don't recall if it was actually waterproof, shockproof, etc, or not.

The seller has 100% positive feedback, and it ships from Hong Kong.

Sketch? Legit? What are your opinions?
[Galaxy Note II Accessories] LittleRedDot:
Looks like a reasonable alternative but I wouldn't trust it under water. Also I think it's butt-ugly... However, if I were going out into the wild I would consider that case.

If you read the feed back most of the folks that left feedback are no longer registered users. Proceed with caution IMO.

If you had to get a new phone, what would it be, and why ?

I am looking at the Xperia P/S or HTC One S. They are cheap and good phones. Im pretty much done with playing with ROMs and Kernels :) Just want a fast and stable experiance.

The HTC is a nice phone but there are "rumors" about issues, while the xperia NXT line is quite bugless (I had the xperia U and gave it to my sis).

Im asking because my screen is broken and im looking to sell the device (I can get at least 200$ for it !).

HTC One Google edition for me..

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nathan96:
The glass is broken at the top, LCD is fine. The phone started making some slight motherboard-related issues and besides, changing the front glass is either expenssive or risky. I bought it for like 500$ here (Israel) about 6 months ago, and now a new one would cost 450$. So 200$ at least is fair ^^.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] nathan96:
Phones are pretty expenssive here. the quad core are over 520$. Nexus 4 is 350$ for 8GB but it sucks with all it's bugs and poor build quality.

I'd rather pay those 350$ for an xperia p/s or htc one s. Now sony is cool, but htc is very attractive due to it's processing power.

HTC one S-

Processing power

price - 480$

lol..

sorry..so much love for gnex mate..
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] lonestrider:
If I need to change my phone, I would like to try Windows Phone. May be Lumia 925.

I'm still worried that using Windows Phone will cause me problem with lack of apps and data sync with my current Google Account.

So if I choose another Android, it should be a phone with large battery capacity (a little disappointed with GNex's battery performance). Maybe Xperia ZL or HTC One. I definitely will try to avoid getting another Samsung phone (despite the price is really good).
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] cHarOn99:
The only phone which I would consider right now would be the HTC Butterfly, because it has a 3200 mha battery.

But currently I am still fine with the gnex. I will first wait what will come this year.

dont waste your money on the N4 dude

not much of an upgrade...wait for the next nexus/Moto x :good:;) :p:good:
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] ChazzMatt:
Xperia ZL C6506 is impressive. Pentaband, multiple LTE bands, unlocked, quad core, 5"screen, 1080p, 2GBP ram, 13MP camera. Order straight from Sony store.

Take away the sd card, slap on Key Lime Pie and there's your Nexus 5. :)

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Krog216:
I'm stuck on Verizon, so I'll likely be buying one of the new Motorola phones coming out in the fall. If there's something good unlocked, I'll probably jump on it. If there are more expensive ones with a better quality/better support, I may be willing to wait until my contract is up in June.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] mixtapes08:
Really? 1.5ghz quad core vs 1.2ghz dual core, 2 gigs of ram vs 1 gig of gnex? Hmmmm not really much of an upgrade is that? I don't think so..

Btw if your reading humors about the motox humors said that it will be dual 1.7ghz processor with 3 gigs of ram...

-3StarsAndaSun
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Seraz007:
well it aint got no LTE and 1 gigs of ram is enuf for me

well the moto x may be dual core but that doesnt mean it won't be fast enuf

and the NEXUS 4 build quality SUCKZ big time!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
You can never have enough of RAM despite what you think.

And to say the uograde from the gnex to the n4 is not much of an upgrade is just a sweeping statement. I would say it's not worth it to upgrade from the gnex to the n4, but if you have the cash, why not?

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tokuzumi:
The only thing that turns me off with the Nexus 4 is the lack of USB OTG support. With my Galaxy Nexus, I have the 32GB version, so I haven't had the need for USB OTG. I know I can flash a few files, and gain OTG support on the N4, but from what I read, you need a powered usb hub to make everything work propery.

As for my next phone? I'd rock a GS4 in a heartbeat. But I'm most likely going to get an S3 on t-mobile on the used market. I don't have the need to be on the cutting edge of technology. I can be a year behind. I'll just pick up last years premium tech from the early adopters for half price :D
