Support NeoGAF

[DietRob]

It's been my DD for 2-3 months. All features I use are working. I don't believe audio over USB is working and there's probably a few glitches but I have not noticed anything.

Thanks I'll give it a go this weekend when I have a bit more time.

Anyone else get a T-Mo update on their S3 this morning? Can't find any information on it. It obviously wasn't JB, but it did something damnit.

 

[HildyB]

CM10 is stable and all features working properly?

I run into some issues with Phone echo and volume/sound issues that come and go depending on the nightly. The "M" builds are like milestone builds and the ones recommended if you don't like flashing every day or so with nightly. Over all, it wasn't stable with my type of usage, so I would say just try and it and see if what doesn't work even affects you.

I ended up using the Serenity Lite 1.2 rom, which is 4.1.1 port from the Galaxy Note 2. Works pretty flawless on our phone. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951115

Probably the same update Verizon and ATT got a couple weeks back. Misc fixes and the brightness slider in the notification pull down was probably added. Was 60-80MB?

MHL doesn't work and some camera features are missing afaik.

To get MHL to work you'll need a Touchwiz-based ROM.

Don't know the size, but there's been a brightness slider in the pull down since I got the phone. Maybe just added the other misc fixes. I want a change log!

Thank you for this tidbit of info. I'll be sure to flash with an M build instead of a nightly.

What is the state of emulation on this phone(tmobile)? Could I carry around a dual shock 3 to play games? I'm sure psone and SNES and all of that older stuff is supported, but how about n64 and Dreamcast?

 

[Yaboosh]

Give CM10 a try, but then also give ParanoidAndroid a try. ParanoidAndroid is all about giving you DPI setting options on a per app basis, including activating a tablet mode for each app. I will never be able to go back to normal CM10 after using PA.

 

[Argyle]

I'm downloading the LJ7 rom from freeza on xda odexed. I'm not rooted so what's the best way to install this?

If I were you I would root to get Clockwork Mod, then install the zip file from Freeza.

There's an Odin tar file that leaked out as well, that will give you fully stock LJ7 but it looked like it may wipe your phone. Back everything up before you flash that!

 

[PwnCakes193]

Honestly stick with either CM10 for basic AOSP, AOKP if you want some customization. Slim Bean is a good choice as well

STAY AWAY from Paranoid Android and the like. I've had nothing but problems and more errors while running those ROMs for some reason

 

[Phoenix]

The Samsung commercial train continues...

Work Trip (this one is particularly good)

Date Night

I think Samsung does best when they focus on their own device as a solution and spend less time trying to trash the iPhone.

Sucks for you, but plenty of people have had good results with PA and warning people to stay away from the Rom because you had a bad experience is silly.

Thanks, looks official now:

Amazing that it only took them 4 months from release. That has to be a new record for Samsung US.

[CrookedRain]

Can't wait for the Sprint JB update.

 

[Anustart]

Welp! It was nice knowing you S3-GAF, but my S3 has been stolen and I'm up shit creek for 2 years :/ So sad

[jobber]

I've been using the JB leaks for the last few weeks. You're going to love it!

 

[BiggNife]

It's probably still going to be months until Verizon gets JB.

Maybe I should stop being lazy and get a custom ROM on this thing over the weekend.

 

[Anustart]

Either my phone is dead or the SIM card was removed :/ But thank you for linking me to that, can come in handy later in life!

FFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUU

I'm sorry to hear that.

 

[BIGWORM]

Anyone running the latest Paranoid Android 2.50? I was having some glitches with the screen transitions, but I think this AOSP-based ROM is finally stable to be my DD, after running Wicked v6 for the past 2 weeks.

 

[Kyoufu]

For me it says "Access to the software update service is provided to users in the order in which they request it. Try later" when I go to software update in settings.

I just want my darn JB update.

 

[Violater]

Ctrl+F Verizon Update = no results found
*punches kitten

 

[Swag]

I can no longer paste anything on my phone, can copy just fine. Phone just crashes sometimes when I try to paste from Gmail.

 

[Withnail]

Got my JB update yesterday (UK, unbranded). Some nice little tweaks here and there and Google Now is really cool. Don't really notice the effects of "Project Butter" but then the S3 was already pretty smooth.

If you really want it now you could install Kies. That will update the phone immediately. Kies is otherwise pretty horrible though.

So I'm shopping around Amazon for a 32g Micro SD card and I see two varieties.


SanDisk 32 GB Mobile microSDHC Flash Memory Card - $19.94

SanDisk Ultra 32 GB microSDHC Class 10 UHS-1 Memory Card 30MB/s - $31.94



Is the ultra card really worth the premium? I know fast cards are desirable for DSLR's but are they really necessary for phones?

it's really only a big concern if you want to record HD Video and not worry about the card keeping up.

 

[massoluk]

Anyone using one of them Case with built in Battery? I'm kinda looking into buying one, can never have to much of juices. Probably waiting to see what Mophie is releasing before buying one though.

 

[black_vegeta]

Alright AT&T, you can get off your ass and give mah JB update! >:|

 

[Dead Prince]

Alright SPRINT, you can get off your ass and give mah JB update! >:|

Fixed that for me.

Been a bug since launch. You need to root or factory restore (this option means it can happen AGAIN in the future) to fix it. Pathetic, eh?

 

[Dr. Kitty Muffins]

I cant seem to install apps to the new SD card I installed on my Galaxy S3. Is that not supported?

 

[DietRob]

Ah, OK. That's what I figured. I'll just snag the 19.94 one since I already have a $20 amazon credit on my acc.

 

[The Faceless Master]

you know you can get the direct google link for the update once someone on XDA gets the update and logs the URL...

 

[jobber]

Nope.

Basically the SD card is useless for apps.......unless you root and run a script that tricks the OS in thinking that the external space is the internal space and the internal space is the external space.

which is when?

 

[blainethemono]

Running the latest sprint jellybean leak (LJ7), cant figure out how to disable vibration for notifications. Vibrate is definitely disabled in sound options. Don't know whats going on

Is it happening on all notifications or one kind in particular?

Is Smart Alert on in the motions options?

 

[Rekubot]

Is the Samsung Galaxy Note 1 likely to get the Jellybean update?

 

[blainethemono]

Is Smart Alert on in the motions options?

Text and email, I think...motion is completely disabled

might be just texts actually, not sure

edit - Found the solution, I had to hit the menu button while in the messaging app to pull up settings and disable vibrate when notified. Never even knew about that menu

 

[teiresias]

Dammit, Sprint, get me my JB update!

 

[Learn2read]

I can't seem to copy/paste to my external sd card from windows. The transfer hangs and/or fails.

 

[Ephemeris]

Alright T-Mobile, you can get off your ass and give mah JB update! >:|

Fixed for me

 

[GhostRidah]

Guess the update is rolling out slow, sprint s3 here and still no update for me =/

 

[rc213]

Fixed for me

Yes, Hurry up T-Mobile.
