Hello, I think I got some problem with the wifi network meter (the meter on the statusbar which indicates the process of upload and download using arrows). In fact, sometime, even that I am certain that my phone is downloading stuff (e.g. Watch a Youtube video or loading a webpage), the meter indicates that there is no upload or download process (no arrow). However, sometime ever that there is no background running apps, the meter indicates the presence of a upload and download process. What is the matter? Note: The network meter works without any problem when on mobile data.

I know this is late, but I finally decided to update. I'm currently on rooted stock rom JWR66V and all I was told to do was to manually flash the OTA file and re-root afterwards but every time I try to flash it, I get a "failed" on TWRP. Any ideas?
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Use fastboot to flash just the partitions you want, then boot to twrp and use the root option, or even better flash a custom ROM with the newest base... Some very good one out there
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rikkoko:
What do you mean by partitions? All I have is one .zip file :\
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] demkantor:
Extract contents. There should be system.img, userdata.img, etc and flash what you want. Maybe all you really need is new radio and bootloader? I guess I don't know what all youre after but check md5sum then

fastboot flash update nameofjwr66y.zip

To flash all contents or flash only what you need from extracted contents, ie

fastboot flash system system.img

fastboot flash radio radio.img

If your going to flash system, data, cache, kernel. I would wipe first

fastboot erase system -w

fastboot erase boot

If you need further help just let me know what outcome youre after (stock unrooted, just what new bootloader, etc)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] studentjunk:
On the MOAR thread, there was some discussion about dark themes and battery life. there were references posted, and some confusion about whether or not the brightness of the colors made a difference.

I decided to do a simple test to confirm. this was done on an older phone, but I figured i might as well put the issue to bed - at least in my midn.

so I put the phone on airplane mode, turned of wife and gps, and turned off the motion sensors. I then took a picture without any light - a black picture. I took a copy of the picture and advanced edited it to be completely white.

The result was a picture showing a black screen, and another showing a white screen.

I charged the time to 100%. I set the timer for 30 minutes, and put on the black screen. The screen timeout was for 10 minutes, so I had to touch the screen a few times to keep it away. I recorded the battery findings, and then charged the phone back up again. I then ran the same test with a white screen.

The black screen led to battery readings of 95% and battery voltage of 4187 mV. the white screen had a battery percentage of 87%, 4088 mV.

So my conclusion is having dark images on the screen really does lead to a modest increase in battery life.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CL1311:
Thanks for the info. I'm running Wicked V5.0 wicked blue which is a pretty dark theme. I also have a completely black wallpaper and can definitely tell a difference in battery life.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kaidynamite:
Only dark colors aren't enough. You need a lot of pure black in your themes for this to work. Because if your theme just has dark grey or something that means those pixels are still on and thus using power. Only in pure black do the pixels turn off completely which helps in saving power.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] studentjunk:
I repeated the experiment. but instead of using a black screen, I used a gray screen. started at 100 % for both. 4360 mV. The gray screen went to 4186 mV - 94%. The white screen went to 4108 mV - 90%.

This time I used tasker to keep the screen on for the entire 30 minute trial (so no need ot touch screen or worry about the screen autodimming), and pumped up the screen brightness to 100% for both runs. otherwise did the same as on the OP.

I would have to run this 3 times to do a statistical analysis. I don't plan on doing this. Nevertheless, my conclusion is the same - dark screens (not necessarily black screens) have a modest improvement in battery life.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ryno2333:

Since this is the Galaxy S3 forum and it uses the Super Amoled screen, your point is a little irrelevant... Though I'm not sure what you even mean exactly.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ReapersDeath:
Kinda don't know why there's another post about dark stuff saving battery life. It's common sense that lighter or brighter colors on a screen use more energy than dark and blacks which use a lot less.

[General Questions and Answers] twistid1:
I currently have a Verizon contract that expires October 14th but I want to hold out until the Nexus 5. I would like to transfer my number to a free GSM dumbphone from straighttalk so I can keep my number, and then eventually when Nexus 5 comes out, I can simply stick the SIM card into the Nexus 5 and be good to go using the Straightalk service.

Now forgive my ignorance but does it work like that? I have only ever had CDMA Verizon and never ported my number over... when I goto GSM, do they attach my number to a SIM card?

In my opinions the screen looks better with a black phone. I had a white s3 and always thought the screen didn't look that good. The I got the identical phone in black and everything just looked better.
[Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] darkkterror:
I was a little tempted to get the white one. Initially, my reasoning was that ALL of my phones are always black. I was thinking that always having a black phone is getting a little stale, so maybe I'd mix it up a little. However, I'm really not that into white phones. I would have gone with a blue perhaps, like the S3 I used to have. Also, I've heard that the non-black versions of the Note 3 have more of a glossy back cover compared to the black one's more matte finish, so there was that too.

1] cuzz I'm a guy... the white one just looks "girly" to me (opinion)

2] dirty hands... don't see myself keeping a white phone clean looking (esp.with the textured back and stitching)

3] front camera and sensors blend with the bezel better instead of showing up like a turd in the punchbowl

4] black and chrome just looks good... white and chrome?... not so much (opinion)

5] reviews showing the feel of the black finish is better... I don't think it's more rubberized... just more of a soft matte finish instead of gloss

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] mrmistermr:
Hello,

I am having problems with a second-hand skyrocket and the rear (main) camera. The guy who sold it to me told me he did something to it (software-wise) that broke the rear camera and it won't initialize or display/take pictures from it. I have downloaded a few different camera apps that would try to initialize or start the rear camera to no affect, but skype, google hangouts, and rear camera only apps work fine.

I have tried going from stock 2.3.6, stock 4.0.4, stock 4.1.2, and most recently both CM 10.1.3 and 10.2 nightly on it to no avail. Most recently on the CM roms, when I open the camera app, it opens (like all other camera apps will, with a black screen), but it says "unfortunately Gallery has stopped" where with the stock roms it will say the Camera has stopped.

I noticed a thread with a possibly similar theme here, but since that thread is a few months old, I'm referencing that one and starting a new one.

Additionally, I found a .zip file with individual camera firmware (or software updates) out there, at least 25 in fact in a 5.83mb zip with the following instructions

But no matter the firmware I tried to flash, and flash back to the SDEH0D (or back to any of the others), that didn't seem to help. I didn't try all 25, but I did choose about 7 ones staggered from that list.

Any other thoughts or comments, tests or experiments? I'd really appreciate any direction ;)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] CoolWolf22:
I'm not an expert on the issue that you're having, But I have encountered a Gallery force-close when starting up the camera. In some of the newer ROM's available today, the camera and gallery are linked. Meaning you can swipe either left or right while inside the camera app and go into your gallery. Anyway, Seems to me that it goes a bit beyond just a software fix. Could be that the camera itself is broken. The only reason I say that is because you say that you've tried several different ROM's and some supposed software fixes, but it's still not working. I would say that if you can, try and find a proper fix that you can either flash in recovery or push to your phone using ADB. I'll do some digging of my own and see what I can come up with.

Hello everyone!

My device is facing strange problem, I know it is normal behavior among smart devices to get hot by intense CPU load. But it normally happens when CPU usage is intense like graphic intense gaming and constant browsing/downloading.

I am using 2G/EDGE Telenor Network in Pakistan and even chatting with friends on different apps causing this problem after using the mobile more than 5 minutes it starts getting pretty hot and battery drain too very fast ( same as using graphic intense games for 5 minutes). On the other hand, when I use the same apps on wifi network mobile don't get hot that quick.

I have even changed different firmwares available to our region. But my problem is not getting solved. Can someone please tell me what can be causing this strange problem?

Have you rooted and changed the governor? I know this is probably not the issue but I can relate somehow. My phone got very hot very quickly while on pegasusq for some reason. If not, I cant think why it would get hot. 2g/edge is supposed to be less cpu intensive than the alternatives.

Are you sure its the cpu? have you tested it by taking out the battery when the phone gets hot, and feeling if the battery is? if its not the battery, the bottom part of the phone will feel hot, then it is the cpu.
