Oh yeah i can imagine in portrait mode it would work amazingly easy one handed for sure! Probably the most "optimal" way IMO one handed quick photo shooting this way with the back button no problem. Was just thinking landscape how that would work? Thank you for explaining though, makes sense now.

Will have to pick up this device i'm thinking. Very happy with my current ATT HTC One X+ running android 4.1 but thinking once this device gets the official update to Sense 5 (which i hate!) then i'll be looking to get away from HTC for awhile. Until they can get through their thick skulls that blinkfeed is not a MUST for users and can give the ability to completely uninstall such a useless feature for most. Thanks

You can knock off by double tapping the status bar no matter what launcher you are using.
[G2 General] whittikins:
1. Download "screen off" app from play store. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.katecca.screenofflock

2. In Nova, go to settings and gestures, set double tap to launch app - Screen Off

The first time you launch that app you have to give it permission but after that it works perfectly.

Check this out guys, if your covering the sensors to the left of the ear speaker (should be the same as Verizon model) and push the power button, the screen will turn on for a second and turn back off, also if your covering them and knock on the display it will not turn on. I think this was done inadvertently so that the screen would not turn on in your pocket, since it doesnt pick up any ambient light source inside your pocket, also it may be a reason why people have problems with knock on at night or low lit areas...

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droiduzr2:
Hello Everyone,

I am using the stock messaging app. I did look through the settings but did not see this option.

I am happy with it BUT I would like to know if there is a setting or another app that will always return me to the main text list.

Meaning

If I sent person X a text it does not stay in that message it goes back to the main list of text messages. This would prevent accidentally texting the wrong person.

any info
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] immortalneo:
I don't think that's possible with the stock messaging app. See if any third party apps have that feature (not likely). :)
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droiduzr2:
I thought so as well.

I am hoping that someone might know of a setting or another app that does this.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Flash-IS-Bright:
Don't know if there's a 3rd party app for it, but I suggest you get a look at Tasker's capabilities. You can do A LOT with it after you have an understanding how it works.

[EDIT] Hmmh, it seems the task you have described in OP couldn't be done in Tasker either..There's an option for that kind of behaviour, but ONLY when done by Tasker i.e. SMS sent automatically by Tasker. So if you want automated texts, yeah sure, but not the way you want it unfortunately. At least not directly, need to think of a convenient way to make it work..
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] droiduzr2:
I don't think you are understanding what I am asking.

It's like the phone dialer apps. You dial a phone # and AFTER you hang up you have options such as return to the call log or return to the dialer or return to the home screen.

After I send a text I want it to return to the main text list and NOT stay in the text of the last person I sent it to.

I hope I cleared this up for all.

Thanks everyone:cool::cool::good:

[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] YamiWheeler:
Hi there,

I recently rooted and flashed a custom ROM onto my Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini. I'm very new to this thing and find everything quite overwhelming, but I want to learn.

I flashed this ROM - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2119219 (the v6 No Wipe version because I was petrified about losing my data if I factory reset), but the phone is now extremely laggy and buggy, so I want to go back to the stock ROM (so I can do a nandroid backup) and then try a different custom ROM like Dmod.

So, my question is, do I have to factory reset my phone to go back to stock? Or can I just flash this file (http://hotfile.com/dl/189271016/833...T-I8190N-BTU-I8190NXXALL6-1356151513.zip.html) using the CWN recovery menu without wiping? I'm asking because my phone keeps giving me an error everytime I try to backup using the CWM Recovery menu.

Thanks and if you need me to explain something in further detail, let me know.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tys0n:
That firmware is a zipped odin-file. Can't be flashed in CWM.

Make a cwm nandroid backup of your "/data" to your external sd (that's your installed apps)

You can also backup your apps and appdata using titanium backup or similar, for later restore.

Just remember to never backup/restore systemapps.

Backup internal sd to computer just to be sure, if you in any situation have to make a factory reset. Make sure any kind of backup is on your external sd before you make factory reset, or it will be lost forever :P
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benzonat0r:
Backup your data in CWM, flash my ROM and restore your data with CWM.
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JackoMJ:
CWM has NO choice to backup/restore only parts of the device. Only a full backup is possible.

This is only in TWRP. Pity! I only use CWM because TWRP makes corrupted backups (three times) for me.

Or is it possible to pick out only DATA from the backup? And what is happen with the dalvik cache, which

consists of the byte-code for all installed apps, optimized for the ROM which created it?

"advanced restore and restore only /data". Is this the way in CWM that you mean [MENTION=230851]benz[/MENTION]?

JackoMJ
[Galaxy S III Mini Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Benzonat0r:
Yes that's exactly what I meant, "advanced restore and restore only /data"

You don't have to worry about cache and dalvik because it's automatically created on the initial start.

thx for the information Benz (usefull in the future perhaps),

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Goldeeloxx:
I have a rooted Samsung Galaxy S3 on Verizon's Network .I"m on a Verizon network extender at home and everytime I've installed any AOSP ROMs (Cyonogen Mod,Paranoid Android,Carbon ,Pacman etc,) my phone goes into roaming ,so I don't have a data connection or a phone connection, in my home with any of these ROM's. Outside of the network extender, the ROM's work. Currently I"m running Touchwiz Rom Jellybeans version 19. Stock or any Touchwiz ROM's work when I"m on the network extender. I've searched for a solution and have found none. I have owned my Galaxy S3 for over a year and haven't been able to run any of these ROM's because of the network extender issues. It's been very frustrating ,can someone please help with the situation?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wrngway:
I have to use a network extender at home as well. It's an older version so it doesn't handle data. I've used it on both TW and AOSP Roms without a problem, so what you have should work.

On AOSP roms, do you get the two tone note when you try to call? You should only need to dial #48 to register with it and then call out.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Goldeeloxx:
HI, the phone connection works but there's no internet connection at all. This is what shows up..
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Wrngway:
There are two different network extender models. On the older one, there is no data connection. The newer one offers 3G as well as voice I believe. So if you're on the older model you won't have network data and will have to rely on wifi. When you dial out, if you hear 2 tones before it begins to ring, then you're operating off the extender.

As long as you're on a stable version of a ROM, it shouldn't have any significant impact. I've used several TW and AOSP roms without noticing any real difference.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Goldeeloxx:
Hi, thank you for responding ,I appreciate you taking the time to answer. I've checked with Verizon and I"m on the newer network extender .On stock or Touchwiz ROM"s I do get a phone connection and 3G. I also get the the two tones when I dial a number before it connects. From what was explained to me that means I"m under the network extender. When I dial # 48 on an AOSP or TW ROM, it tells me that I'm under the network extender's connection.

95% of the ROM's I've used have been stable. The others have been Cyonogen Mod nightly's . On my Droid Razor Maxx,when running and AOSP ROM, I never had these issues.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Restola:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Goldeeloxx:
Update: Currently I am running an AOSP Rom (CM 10.2 09-19-2013) and it's working. To get it to work, I installed the last ICS OTA modem (the VRLHE) and I am now getting data at home under the network extender. No more "R" for roaming! The modem is not as strong as the Jelly Bean VRBMF1 modem, but it's working. I still can't get any AOSP roms to work on JB modems and I don't know why. I was thinking of contacting the CM team for a possible solution. I am still glad it's working even though it's on an old radio.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Xonero:
Really having trouble with this. Someone suggested WiFi fixer, it worked for all of 30 seconds and then WiFi stopped working again. I can't use my mobile connection for long because AT&T as we all know caps it like crazy.

Edit: Odd thing. An iPhone isn't connecting either. But the wireless computers in the house are. So maybe it's the router? It does appear to be the router. For now I think everyone can just ignore this.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshootin] fatbambooshoot:
I used TWRP to wipe all my partitions under advanced wipe.

I Odin'ed the stock kernel, stock rom and TWRP.

I used TWRP to mount the efs partition, and adb pushed my backed up efs.zip into that partition.

I checked using the TWRP file manager that the files and folders are all in the efs partition.

But after a reboot into TWRP, the efs partition would become empty again, as if I never transfered the files.

And off course, my phone is now stuck at the notorious Samsung logo boot loop.

So why did the files delete themselves after every boot? And is there any way to solve my boot-looping issues?

My current partition size:

Boot (10mb)

System (2135mb)

Data (0mb)

Cache (62mb)
