Simple And Basic Techniques

1. make sure wifi and bluethooth are not switched on when not in use

2. Make sure you turn gps on only when you need maps and navigation

3. keep screen brightness to lowest you can handle..

4. install better battery stats and check which apps are consuming most of ram and battery

and as you said you have xposed modul... you can use greenify to hibernate or close applications to avoid battery drain

5. if you found anything helpful, you can subscribe to my youtube channel for more tricks and tips and hit thanks button :)

Question about charger

hello everyone, I have bought a GS3. when i charge my phone with the original charger, it makes a continuous humming noise!:eek: I sought help from the warranty and sadly they just said the adapter is not covered under the warranty.

charging with this adapter does NOT produce excessive heat or delay more than normal time to fully charge the battery. my questions are:

1. is using of this chargers is hazardous?

2. using Galaxy Note 2 adapter (which the output is 2 ampere in comparison with one ampere of the original one) instead of original one will be harmful for my device?

thank you in advance for your replies.:o

i9305 display unit

Hi all,

Unfortunately I shattered the glass of my i9300 recently, and in the process of trying to replace it damaged the LCD, so now I'm looking at replacing the whole display unit.

My question is, since I rather like the grey/black of the i9305, can I install the motherboard from my i9300 into a i9305 display unit? I've seen a number of posts about replacing the display unit of a i9305 with a i9300, but not the other way around.

Hello guys,,,,

I am using galaxy s3 and i AM from Pakistan.Few days ago,i rooted my phone and i tried to flash stock recovery using mobile odin but my mobile got bricked.Every time i powered it on,it automatically tried to enter recovery but hanged there.Luckily,i was able to enter DOWNLOAD MODE.I gave my s3 to a friend.He flashed 4.3 stock firmware of another region.The MODEM CSC BL AND AP files were of another (but same) region.Now the phone keeps on saying "NOt registered on network",even my IMEI is original and there is no modification in the EFS folder.But it keeps on saying these words whenever i try to call or message. ONE MORE THING,the signal bars show full signals and there is no problem in my sim card which is creating problems.Any HELP GUYS?:confused:

1. Charging your phone with any adapter can be harmful but if its designed to be used with micro usb charging it should be fine,

2. I use my old Nokia charger have done since I got my phone and the output on that is higher than the stock Samsung one.

Samsung recommend maximum 2 amps, basically the lower the amps the slower the charging will be, it will take longer but use to high an ampage and you will fry the circuits

unique scenario

ok so here's my issue. i have a phone (my fiancee's) that is inaccessible by normal means.

it has been dropped, but it works. i can hear stuff, especially calls coming in, texts being missed etc etc, but the screen shows nothing but faint blue lines/artifacts and doesn't respond to touch.

at first the FRONT GLASS was cracked and the phone was in use up until this most recent drop.

i'm not sure, but i don't think ADB debugging (whatever that option is called) is enable because i tried this nifty java program called droidAtScreen and it wouldn't work. of course, this could be because microsoft is retarded and there might be some UAC dance that i didn't perform in order to run programs, but i doubt ADB bridge is enabled on phone because it's my fiancee's and i never hacked around with it.

so my question is....

given that scenario... is there any way to access anything on the phone BESIDES what's stored on the internal and external memories?

really i think we can recover all the really important stuff with the connection we have now, but i was just wondering if there was a way to enable ADB without actually doing it from the options menu in the phone (since that's inaccessible).

thanks for your time!

Camera, Pictures and video quality

Hi! just found ROM made by you, it looks great!

I'm sick of huge lag in my S3... Once I tried cyanogenmod 10.2+- cant remember which version, doesnt matters... But got back to original touchwiz rom... because of few bugs, but main reason was really poor quality of pictures and video!!

So i would like ask a question.

is there any difference between original software and [S5 Rom], cyanogen11? cameras? I mean quality...

Cause i'm doing a lot pictures, quaility of pictures is importan for me...

Maybe there is another rom, which suits me?

Thank you!

Need some ND8 help!

What's up guys. I've been on XDA for a while, but still kind of a noob.:eek: I have an S3 rooted and currently running MOAR. I'm getting the 4.4 OTA alerts pushed to my phone(Which I believe is ND8) and have heard a lot about loosing root. I would like to update, but can't get it to go through. When pushing install now, it reboots into recovery, and the install fails, and then reboots. I'm not sure if this is due to MOAR being 4.3 based. Would like to keep MOAR and have 4.4, but from my understanding, that's up to the developer, and given the S3 is so old now, that may not happen. Thought about trying some kitkat 4.4 based roms, but they all say do not install if you haven't updated to ND8. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks guys.:good:

I am using Temasek's CM11 ROM. I searched the entire thread and could not find a post with a similar question as me. I have a University Wifi which requires me to sign in every-time i connect. Touchwiz would display a Wifi Signin required notification to do the same. My Nexus 7 does the same as well. But the this ROM never gives me the option. If i just connect the wifi and leave it. It continuously tries to access the internet (Wifi indicator remains amber or orange color) indicating no network access until of course i manually open the browser and log in. Is there a way to enable the Wifi sign in on this ROM? Any help is appreciated.

Dear all,

Since last weekend my 2 year old SGS3 suddenly turned off and after try to start it, it stuck on the galaxy I9300 logo.

At first I tried a new battery, didn’t work.

I tried to restore the firmware through KIES. Doesn’t work.

I tried it using Odin. 1st error: Can’t find PIT file. Adding a pit file: Odin get stuck on pit-mapping. After reading a thread on this forum I tried using auto reboot, re-partiton, f. reset time and Nand Erase All. Odin got stuck during erasing.

I tried multiple laptops, official drivers ect.

Right now I start thinking it might be a hardware problem.

My question: are there any options to test if it is an hardware problem?

Second question: Do I have any other options to restore my firmware?

Thanks a lot.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RazorMC:
the S3 is well known for amazing camera images. If your pics are blurry, then try to adjust the touch-to-focus or use autofocus. If the issue persists, then it might be better to return the device. It might even be a refurb device since those devices might not be in original condition (hardly surprising since the S3 is quite old and almost impossible to get a brand new one)

Galaxy I9305 Un-rooting problem on reboot

Hi,

I have a Galaxy S3 I9305 LTE running Jelly Bean on a stock kernel (unless I managed to install Cyanogen via Rom Manager - I think I just downloaded the ROM I didn't go through an installation process, unless it is automatic?).

OK, I rooted it through Odin using the standard .tar.md5 file found through links found here on XDA, however I have found that, when I reboot my phone, root access tends to drop off or disappear, and I have to re-root.

This is intermittent, so doesn't happen every time I reboot. Strangely enough this is a bit of a pain.

Additionally, when re-rooting I also have to try several times before the phone will successfully root, which obviously is also a pain. I have the latest version of Odin (I also have an older one which seems to work too). Any help on this issue also would be great.

Any help much appreciated!
