Bro I just got it less than a week
Don't think I will be selling it so fast unlike previous htc one x. Just few days using it already decide to sell off n luckily got a good price for it after 3 weeks usage
This SGS III is too good to be sold off now definitely I will keep it for at least few months possibly at least 6 months. Looking forward to custom roms

IMO if disable those....then whats the point of S3. tongue.gif since S3 focus mainly on those features

i agree with the others but i feel users should not neglect the usage and capability of a smart phone just to save battery. if like this might as well use back 3310 tongue.gif

One can always get a spare battery . Battery should never affect one enjoyment using the phone
Disabling all such I agree defeats purpose getting a smartphone. Such thinking remind me of s friend who who will never go out when is raining ad he say rain water will spoil car paintwork

use the app Backup to Gmail to backup all your SMS. these will be shown as another folder in your Gmail account and you can see it in any mail client too

Discovered something about LED notifications. I find these LED notifications a nuisance - has never like it. So I disabled all of it BUT I still get to see the LED lighted up when emails ( yahoo, Gmail arrives ) and miss SMS. Even under charging, it is still lighted up
Looks like this is a bug

uncle benny....can u test this. screen timeout, default is showing 45 sec. but if you change to 30 sec, there's no way to change back into 45 sec because it doesn't exist in the settings

and putting more than 2 apps into a folder in the app drawer will crash TW
don't use current city. search for your town or city, then use that instead
*
My screen timeout only shows 15 sec, 30 sec, 1 min etc : Default is 15 secs always. No 45 secs listed

I have even 12 apps in one of my folders ; my number of apps in folders minimum is 4 and up to 12 max

Yeap I tried this also and it doesn't crash. (Inside App drawer)
___________________________________________________

Errr wanna ask anyone who is very familiar with using driving mode:

Does the phone read to you the contents of new incoming messages? I only get the "you have incoming call from XXXXX" but messages doesn't trigger this...

Under text-to-speech output options, Google Text-to-speech Engine selected.
Under driving mode options, I have everything ticked except for the last box.

Appreciate any help given biggrin.gif
*
The detail description says " Read out senders information when new messages arrive" - it never state messages contents will be read out to you only sender information. This works perfectly telling us who is the sender

Erm, need help here guys. On my S2, when I save a new contact the phone will ask me whether I wanna safe on phone or google, i selected google. When I login my google acc in my S3, the contacts is not there. Anyone can help?

Also, I'm selling my S2, I intend to reset my phone to factory setting ie like a new phone when I pass to new owner. Under setting.. Privacy...Factory Data Reset, that shud wipe out everything right? What else do I need to do or check? Pls. advice.

Factory reset will only wipe clean your apps in the hidden 2 GB partition. All your viewable stuffs in the viewable partition ( internal Sdcard) will not be wipe. Delete all the stuffs you have there - your music, video files, apps support data etc - just wipe it clean. When you restart phone, some of the default folders will be built back

Google contacts once you have sync over will always be there - go and check first on the web whether your contacts are really at google . Log in your email and check contacts

Hi Uncle Benny,

Thank you so much for the reply smile.gif much appreciated.

I just tested and it works fine for incoming calls (telling us who is the sender), but it doesn't work the same way for my messages  sad.gif (Doesn't say who is sending the message, neither name nor number)

Any comments on this?

Thanks!

It works telling me who is sender of the SMS
