Actually I had the worst game ever. It was called Hide & Peek. A turn based hide and seek game. And there were only like ten places to hide so I didn't really get the point.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] view9234:
I'm traveling to Europe next month for a few weeks and realize that as I don't have a worldphone, texts sent to me during this time will just disappear (as Sprint only holds them in their network for 3 days)--without alerting the sender I didn't receive them.

The only option I've found to forward my texts to me (please correct me if I'm wrong), is if I move my Sprint number to Google Voice and have them send the SMS as emails (through my GMail account). I'm hoping I can do this while traveling internationally and then just remove Google Voice from my Sprint number when I return.

1. Has anyone done this? I'm fairly certain this will work (moving my Sprint number to Google Voice) I'm just worried it will be difficult/complicated/impossible to move the number away from GV and back to Sprint.

2. Is there any other way to send/receive texts--received on your Sprint number--internationally via WiFi through an app or something?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ainz_Ooal_Gown:
actually you can just do a Google play search with "WiFi call and text" for example, you will find apps that say they will do this just make sure you read the reviews to see what others think of said app
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Chad The Pathfinder:
You can send a friend an email that will be delivered as a text message if you know his mobile phone number and which wireless carrier he uses. When he replies to the text, you'll get a reply to your email. Create a new email on your laptop and type the text message in the email body. Address it to your friend's 10-digit mobile phone number followed by a suffix, depending on his carrier.

For example, for the phone number 800-555-1212, type the email address as

8005551212@txt.att.net for AT&T,

8005551212@tmomail.net for T-Mobile,

8005551212@messaging.sprintpcs.com for Sprint or

8005551212@vtext.com for Verizon.

Messages longer than 140 characters are delivered as multiple text messages.

Edit: You can also experiment with RingTo, GoogleVoice and Hangouts. I think they can be used the way you want but the first 2 require new numbers.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] view9234:
But those apps use a proprietary text system. I need to receive texts that are coming into my Sprint phone number--no way to tell everyone to text me using Skype/WhatsApp...etc.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] DarkAngel:
Unless you want to use these, just let the ones that text you the most frequent know how to get a hold of you. Just plan in advance. Email is sometimes the way to go and Chad hit it with the Text to Email how to. Here are some more:

Sprint: number@pm.sprint.com

Virgin Mobile: number@vmobl.com

Tracfone: number@mmst5.tracfone.com

Metro PCS: number@mymetropcs.com

Boost Mobile: number@myboostmobile.com

Cricket: number@sms.mycricket.com

Nextel: number@messaging.nextel.com

Alltel: number@message.alltel.com

Ptel: number@ptel.com

Suncom: number@tms.suncom.com

Qwest: number@qwestmp.com

U.S. Cellular: number@email.uscc.net

Try it yourself and experiment. Open up your message app ( stock phone one is fine ) and send a text message to your email and not your number. Now check your email and see if you got the text you sent. If you did, now send a message back to the number it has on the address bar. I just did it and I got both messages. Just make sure they have your email address in their contacts that you want to use to get a hold of you.

@messaging.sprintpcs.com is what displayed for me.

I used this all the time for calling out multiple people at the same time when they were needed. The great thing was they would respond back from their text message to the email to acknowledge it.

Just...........

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] erikalin:
Hey guys, I'm having a thinking block and need to check that I'm doing this right. Can someone just read through and confirm?

I'm giving an old Sprint phone to my friend's kid, who broke her phone and has no money. I will never see the kid again, and I'm just trying to be nice, so it has to be a "this is it" setup. The phone was activated on my number, on Sprint in the past. She has a current Sprint number, current account, blah blah blah. She wants to take my phone, login to her Sprint account online, and activate the phone I'm giving her.

Can I flash a TW-based stock ROM and make some cosmetic edits, and hand it over to her so she can activate with Sprint? I don't have to return to stock, do I? I feel bad for this kid for a few other reasons, and thought I'd be nice with making the phone snappier and prettier before handing it over.

(1) Can I flash a cutomized TW-based ROM and she should be able to activate or no?

(2) What do I clear data on to get the initial Android setup to run on next boot?

Thanks X 10 for someone's reply.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
1)Yes you should be able to activate on any Touchwiz based ROM (bearing that it's compatible with the current modem)

2) Just a Factory/Data Reset

3) Remember the dialer code ##72786#- carrier/data reset-forces activation process

4) I have activated my prepaid account on custom TW ROMs multiple times

My ROM: WICKED X
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] erikalin:
Okay thanks. When would she need to use the dialer code? Not sure why, but this whole process baffles me, lol.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Only if it doesn't work right away, that's the first thing you should try. Just a good thing to have saved in the Contacts. Cuz you can use it in all sorts of situations... Like if data stops working or isn't working.

My ROM: WICKED X
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Chad The Pathfinder:
When I have recieved used Sprint phones myself, I just did a fresh flash of my favorite TW (or sense as it was on other devices) ROM and called Sprint for activation. A couple of times I was able to activate them myself in my account at sprint.com Never had to be unrooted or stock. Don't recall needing to do the dialer code though...

Hey folks, So I've got an off-topic and a pretty much off-topic post. Man, I'm overtired. :eek:

Legit off-topic

: You know how some of you tested the app I made for my work? Well after teaching that course for 10+ years, and just making this little app for the current semester, some "higher up" changes mean I'm going to be teaching something else after this semester. I was really hoping to get more use than one semester out of the app I put heart and soul into making. :( That stings a bit. Ah well, good learning experience.

Pretty much off-topic

: Right, so I gave my old phone (E4GT) to the friend's kid. It was recently active on one of my Sprint accounts, works fine. It's on a Jellybean ROM and modem. The kid activated it by calling Sprint, and then realized she has no data. Phone calls yes, data no. I told her to run the dialer code ##72786# and she did that, but said it prompted her for her MSL. I've never done anything like this. It's under the umbrella of stuff I know nothing about - activating data, knowing MSL numbers, etc. I know from reading that I can have her download terminal emulator and type getprop rll.MSL but... is this right? Can I just tell her to call Sprint and complain that they didn't activate her correctly, because she doesn't have data? Ugh. Trying to be nice... :/ Any advice is appreciated.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bilgerryan:
Tell them to ask Sprint for the MSL because she can't get data without it... Or take it to a Sprint store and they'll do it for them.

I bought some extended batteries and an external charger and I NEVER charge my phone now. Only thing I use the port for is USB transfers. And I usually have to rig it just right to get it to work lol. My port is junk too. Or if you don't like the extra bulk of the extended batteries what I did before that was buy like 4 stock batteries (really cheap on Amazon) and two external chargers (like $2 on Amazon) and then just throw a fully charged battery in your pocket when you go out.

So convinced my job to let me upgrade the flaky S3 they were letting me use....so I picked the LG G3...this phone is really awesome!!! If the Sprint rep in the store knew wth they were talking about I would have gotten it. Apparently they do not know it has an sd slot and neither did the AT&T rep...if I didn't know my job...well I wouldn't have it! But even finding this info out on Sprint's site is not an easy task. It may be on AT&T but I have it now!

Comparing G3 to the M8...M8 has the sound going for it. G3 has removable battery and better camera...also slightly bigger with more usable screen space.

Thought I would share with my S3 peeps!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Chad The Pathfinder:
You had me at removable battery. ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] n00b-xda-disciple:
Yeah and the lg g3s bootloader was recently unlocked. I would say it would be a great upgrade from the s3.

When I upgrade, I think I'm going for an s5. Loving my s3 with s5 features, plus I wouldn't mind running the s5 moar Rom from [MENTION=1167171]rompnit[/MENTION]. I'm just waiting for the right deal; a little too pricey for me at the moment and I'm not on a contract.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] orlzzt:
Even on AT&T? I am freaked about upgrading my GS3 because of all the locked/Knox crap. I know the Note 3 on AT&T has a locked bootloader.

I'm trying to hold out to see what the Nexus 6 is like. If that doesn't work, I might have to check out the LG G3. Wish [MENTION=3125148]KennyG123[/MENTION] had gotten the Sprint variant.. Could have ported TPR over to the G3! :D

[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] florek235:
Hi all

I face of with a litle problem I have from some days a area of screean without touch haw can i repear this is this soft isue. I was traing few roms with the same result
[G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rayan:
Next time I recommend you use the search function... This has been discussed several times.

But yeah, you are not alone... This is a common problem or defect on the LG G2 (all variants). A few days ago I got the same problem where just a part of the top of the screen does not respond to touch.

As far as I could tell, the only solution is to replace the whole screen assembly or just the touch screen, but the replacing just the touch screen requires so much delicate and specialized work since the screen and the touchscreen are glued together so I recommend investing on a new screen-touchscreen replacement that will set you back about $80 USD but easier to replace by yourself.

I've been trying to figure what could have caused this on my G2 since I've never dropped it, but there are two possible scenarios for me:

1. A few days ago I was on a call on a very VERY hot and humid day, I was sweating like a pig and when I was on the phone, I noticed the receiver stopped working due to sweat coming into the speaker. I was stupid enough to blow into it trying to clear it, of course it didn't work but once it dried, the speaker worked again.

2. On a few occasions, I have forgotten to remove my phone from by back or front pocket when climbing into my car. I could imagine the phone would flex just a tiny bit and figure that might not be good, even though it was really not that much pressure nor time.

Those are the only two possible scenarios in my case. Other than that I don't see how it could have failed.

Cheers!

I wanted to root my i9100, so after a quick google search I came up with this file: http ://downloadandroidrom. com/file/GalaxyS2/recovery/CWM-KitKatCompatible-i9100.tar

I booted my phone into download mode, and installed the tar via odin. I ticked PDA and pressed "start", everything was fine.

When it finished, I tried to boot my phone but it just won't boot. It's stuck on the Galaxy SII logo with the yellow triangle, and after a few seconds the screen just goes completely black. The phone is on, I can tell because when I plug it in my PC does the USB sound, and automatically installs driver, but there's nothing on the screen.

I can't boot into download or recovery mode either, my phone is basically dead.

Is there any way to get it running?
[G3 General] androiduser991:
They have given us a phone that struggles to power the QHD screen. I played with the new Galaxy Tab yesterday and its the same,stutters and lags because of the crazy high resolution.

They have given us a phone that shutsdown I've no doubt because of component failure due to high temperatures and had the cheek to say its fixed with a reboot instead!

We get a phone with the old Xperia Z1 camera sensor rather than the new Z2 sensor.

In the UK we get a 2gb version so we get redraws all the time and apps shutting down in the background.

And what causes most of the of the problems?? A QHD screen which is barely any different to an HD screen is poorly calibrated and has a visible digitizer.

No amount of software updates will help this thing, most of the problems are hardware related.

Thanks LG,I'm now stuck with this pig phone for 2 years! :(

[G3 General] moblaw:
I only agree with the heat-issue, and thus I conclude, that it's very unprofessional of LG not to have applied any thermal-grease on the chipset. (From what I've read, there isn't any) hence this issue appears.

hate or love the qhd display now, in some months/years it will probably be standard on phones. And people will ask in that time,

"Hey which phone was the first to ship with qhd display? and did that go okay" you know looking back.

2gb vs 3gb performance is on pair.

Remember android o/s works wonder with 2 and 3 gb ram.

if you experience something sluggish on 2gb, chances are it's equally sluggish on 3gb :P
[G3 General] southern87:
I experience only minor lag and it is not much just randomly.

I think the phone is great. Hey Moto X could root but wasn't permanent unless bootloader was unlocked or was able to see the write permission flag off so be happy with the root.

I feel people don't allow proper variance to smart phones.

I'd agree with most of the original post except the digitizer which I really couldnt see.

PS. The QHD display uses more RAM for video RAM 300mb HD Vs 600mb QHD so you need the extra RAM for QHD.

Use the 1080 flagships for a week or so and you'll see the difference. The G3 is a slow pig because its underpowered for a QHD.Even the new S805 G3 review says that smooths out the lag and stutter issues.
