RyanBurnsRed Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 Yep, I love this phone. I was going to get the black model, but then I figured that I'd get the red version since it looks more unique and is exclusive to Sprint. I'm not sure what my next phone will be. Maybe a Galaxy or another HTC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FranklinDeRoosevelt Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) I need help. I have trouble connecting my Wi-Fi on my S3 and the problem is it keeps saying the connection is very unstable even though it has the strongest signal/connection and fastest link speed in my area, which causes the connection not to work, and sometimes it even redirects to the mobile network. Can anyone help me with this issue? Thanks. Edit: Never mind, I've fixed the issue. Luckily, found a great tip on the web that helped me.

FranklinDeRoosevelt Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 (edited) Sure. I didn't think about that lol You turn the phone off, remove battery and re-insert battery, hold the "up" volume key and home button and power key until the android logo pops up, let go off the power button, and there should be a list, choose wipe cache partition and then click reboot device to turn it on and that sorts the wi-fi issue out. Just to warn you guys, I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 so I don't know if this would work on other android devices. However, this solution apparently works on all Samsung Galaxy phones.

Craigsters Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 (edited) Yea I found out how to remove s-voice from the home key from a android site, but occasionally Google now tries to pop up and give me a tour and install if I hit the home button a certain amount of times. I typed into Google search this "how to disable s voice from the home key" and twenty or more android fan sites popped up including one with a youtube instructions that I can't find anymore.

Pavle Posted October 31, 2014 Share Posted October 31, 2014 Today's kids have iPhones and S5s. When I was in my younger years, this was the s*it. I was surfing the internet, and found out that people sell these for 120$. I still have mine. But I'm not gonna sell it. Too many good memories.

S-Voice is really a hassle because it slows down the home button reaction when you click on it. I removed S-Voice and the difference is astonishing. Every time I click on it to go to the homepage, it is instant. There's also a developer options which allows you to get rid of animations and transitions when opening an app and f*cking hell does it speed opening apps up, but I haven't bothered with that as I like the transition.

I paid forty Canadian for it. My question I'm hoping I can customize the widgets and use themes with it like nova Launcher prime and smart launcher pro 2 I also purchased nine other widget icon themes,I tried the word wrap link bb code but only 3 of the links worked, so I removed the word wrap link bb code, sorry my bb coding Sucks. Here's what I bought at Google's play store Pulse icon pack Viper icon pack Black leather icon pack industrial icon pack by Stealthychief Hexacon icon pack Flatro icon pack Viby icon pack Ruggy theme Black krom theme by Stealthychief Here's the hexacon icon pack I applied to the smart launcher pro 2, the wallpaper is a grunge color but tinted with the help of go launcher wallpaper filters Edited October 31, 2014 by Craigsters iddqdvie 1 "You don't understand!

FranklinDeRoosevelt Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 (edited) I don't understand. Around 2 and a half hours ago, my phone was fully charged to 100%. From them, I haven't touched my phone since, and it's already down to 80%. What the f*ck is this? My old phone only had a capacity of 1350 mAh and when I fully charged it to 100% and didn't touch the phone, it can stay on 100% for 8 hours or so, and generally stay alive for 3-4 days.

FranklinDeRoosevelt Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Checked it and nothing running in the background, I always close those processes. As for the settings, it's all bullsh*t. Says 20% for screen when in fact I've toned down everything screenwise, so I don't know why, and android OS is on the top with 39% I think. Seriously though, the battery life on the S3 is absolutely pathetic as f*ck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Specs seem to be consistent with the A13. Had one of those back in late 2012, and boy it was a total ass when it comes to multi-tasking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iddqdvie Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) 5s space grey, no cover, no foil, just the plain phone, (i like how the iphone gets all scratched up, makes it look like a star wars gadget - old but lasting) the other screens are themed by app colour.

Craigsters Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) @lpgunit I found it for sale at amazon for $65 and my friend claimed that he paid $140 for it not to long ago, the screen resolution is so dark, dim and crappy that I use my phone and connect to my Wi-Fi sense I know my Rogers Internet info for my Wi-Fi. Next October I'll buy a 15' HP Laptop or notebook for around $399 plus Canadian taxes at best buy. That Emerson tablet well collect dust on my desk.

X S Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 (edited) So I'd like to use the one on the left more often, but the lighter part of the background tends to wash out the folders on the right-hand side.
