Guys. I saw the proximity sensor on all the time. Just want to know how do you activate glance view

Gents. Not working. Tried the swipe and lift up few seconds trick. Both didn't yield any result. I saw the video. It is suppose to be sensitive and quick. Not sure why it is not working

Anytips?I've restarted the phone but the Proximity sensor now went off. is the glance feature triggered by the proximity sensor?
You meant Quick glance right?

Tried couple of time. Didn't seem to work. Will try again Thanks.

Where to activate it? Sorry. A bit lost in Android

Thanks. Found it in motion tab. Working now

Thanks. Trying out now. This phone's motion capability adds a whole new dimension

Distraction more than attention. Lol

Roadshow is possible. Stores, most of them are wired to the alarm system. loose ones? need to buy only can break the seal.

Food of thought, Well he can organize a TT, probably can get majority to attend and share all their opinions.

Good direction there. Trust he will pay the shop a visit

I'm also happy with the stock rom.

btw, anyone knows how to create shortcuts to access the task switcher for android? I only manage to find one shortcut to access the samsung task manager. Don't want to long press the physical button. Paranoid it might wear out like Iphone.

ok thanks...

Yes and no. If Viber/skype or any other 3rd party app is running, proximity sensor will still run even when the quick glance is off. Happened to me..


Very funny guy

up to you. glance menu doesn't show much and i just want to prolong the IR proximity sensor, so it's off from me.

Nope. Smart Stay keeps your monitor on even during idle. it's suppose to look at your face and detects your eye. quick glance is when your screen is off you can activate it to have a quick look. Downside is it, only works when it's on flat surface. if it works when we take it out of the pocket or when the flip cover is removed, it would be gr8

You must lock the phone, then shake a bit then stop then shake a bit then stop. after sometime it will prompt you the alert

Well, it's never a proximity radio sensor. Mr Samsung thought it would be better if it uses the gyro sensor to detect movement when the screen is lock.

can someone confirm if this works for us?

Hi uncle. Did my usual holiday window shopping. Saw alot of shops selling cheap hdmi converter price 28-48 which will work on s3. Flipped to the back I noticed the compatibility stretches towards s2 note1 etc. Funny things was s3 is also in the compatibility list. It's this a false marketing or the converter is backward compatible.

Bought a cheap 9 ringgit micro USB cable to substitute the original cable (scared the white cable getting dirty) left the phone charged for the whole night. normally around <3 hours it will charge full. but upon waking up 3 hours later I observe only 40% increase. Swap back to the original cable, the results were much better. Man, is the charger that sensitive to cables?

Nah. it's rated USB 2.0 high speed cable.

Maybe problem with the awg ratings.
I've actually purchased another original USB cable online, but due to unforeseen circumstances it was delayed. My thoughts of purchasing a cheap USB cable is to perform experimental comparison between the two. As we all know cheap HDMI v1.4 and expensive ones have no relative difference in signal quality. Furthermore I have plans to dissect the cable and fabricate a charging dock / portable power bank. Yeah, you can say why go through the hassle of making when you can just purchase it out from the shelf? well, some of us are a bit adventurous. Same reason why you like to try out custom rom.

Composite, component yes because it's analog signal. HDMI is digital. anyway we're going off topic here.
