Jellybean beta 3 questions.

Albinoman thank you for the greatest ROM ever. I want to know where is the launcher settings to edit add screens.

Use a custom launcher. Also, this isn't the place to post this fyi.

I'm new to xda-dev, myself. I also had some questions/comments re: Albinoman's JBbeta3 ROM, and thought this _was_ the right place to discuss such. Since I know the dev forum is the wrong place (even though it happens there), and now I'm told this is the wrong place...could someone please point me to where the right place is?
Thanks,
n00b

For questions, I'd say Q&A

Okay, thanks. (A quick glance through the thread titles on this "General" forum reveals plenty of questions, too, so maybe I'm not the only one who's unsure...)

The proper place to ask questions, would be in Albinomans thread. If you didnt want to post there, Q/A would be acceptable. However general is a better place to start a new thread than developement section

i'm using Jellybean beta 3, but the camera doesn't work well
why?

Known issue for all JB ROMs on the Inc, but not listed in the OP. Try to cross reference CM10's OP in the mean time.

Which rom has the latest updates??

Have had this phone for under a week and just wondering which of the custom roms have the latest official updates. There seems to be so many different updates that I cant tell which one is the latest. And I dont mean the jelly bean leaks. Right now Im running FreeGs3 Release 6 and seems to be pretty good. Also any advise in which tw roms you guys think are the best, and which ones get updated more frequently, battery life,, etc.. Any info would be very appreciated. Thanks

UVALH2 is the latest official release. So look for roms based on that.
FreeGS3 is an outstanding rom imo, based on UVALG1 which is one of two out of box builds.
UVALEM is the original.
Everything else are leaks. The latest being UVDLI8. The latest jb leaks have bern somewhat buggy and addicted to the juice. The most developed of these are wildchlds XquiziT xD and djintrigues Frosty jb. Wanam just released an LI8 build as well.
Xquizit is based on LI8 and Sprints recent leak.
Frosty is based on UVDLI6 and 7.
There are a number of other roms obviously but these are the ones i am personally familiar with.
Hope it helps.

Lol looks like you got the s3 around the same time i did. Too bad i can't answer your questions.. i jumped straight to aokp and cm10 lol. I think you can look at any of the ics Roms and they should be on the latest. All the jb are leaks

You know when you first get into a new phone, you don't know which version is new especially with what... 9 leaks? I don't even know which ones are all the official ones. Doc's post actually helps a lot for those new to this device. I'm sure many of us appreciate his post.

He asked how often the devs update their ROMs. It's kind of a question that needs to be answered by reading post 1 in each ROMs thread. Unless you want to go copy and paste all of it don't criticize me? What I said had NOTHING to do with docs post.

Thanks! There really are a lot of great people here, some more visible than others, and a lot of them know a lot more than i do and often prove to be more help than me!
Just remember to take some stuff extra lightly, especially in the general and q&a sections. There really are a lot of threads and questions that get repeated over and over. in my opinion its usually not so much the person or the question, but for many people its the giving of the same answers over and over again. it can just get a little tiring. (As much as i enjoy helping everyone, every now and then i just have to take a break from certain areas!)
You will probably find that once youve become used to the people here, that many of the folks you thought were rude or inconsiderate will wind up being extremely helpful and may even save your ass someday! Its just that they may have already answered a similar or same question multiple times.

I wasn't criticizing you. It's just that your post isn't helpful. It's just a smartass remark. The guy even stated that he just came over and wanted specific questions answered. It's not like he went and ask a n00b question like "what's the best Rom". What i was saying is that his question led to an answer that is very beneficial to everyone. You feel me?
This is a community, why are you going to be on a forum if you're just gonna make smart sarcastic remarks to everything? It doesn't hurt to ask question. If you need help them ask. People are willing to answer it. But you seem to be bothered by every little question possible. Are you trying to be the bad guy on this forum or something?
I don't have anything against you, and i can tell you're a smart guy, but if you're not willing to share knowledge and help others, don't bring them down.

You said it doc, it's not unusual to see a lot of the same questions asked over and over, but it happens especially the first few months of new phone releases. We came from the T-Mobile s2 and we were known as the dark corner of xda for a bit lol so we're use to it. But things got sorted out and the s2 section became actually a cool place.
For example, all the root and recovery questions. There are like 4-5 threads here that talks about root. There's bound to be confusion. it'll be nice if someone compiled a thread with all the root methods and troubleshooting

I smell a Bible in the works. Needs to be done sooner, rather than later or those 4-5 threads about the same thing will multiply like a virus.
Thread Closed. Question was Asked and Answered.

4 Window multiwindow?

Just saying it would be awesome to see someone take advantage of this huge screen and making it more efficient in going back and forth opening new apps and such in multiwindow or maybe even a hole new UI could help make this possible so that it's easier to manage and switch thru the open windows?
Am I the only one who thinks so or have I gone bananas?

Regardless of the sanity of your request, this is not the place for it... and as such be prepared to have this moved/removed by a mod, of course not till several other people come in here to berate you.
In the future use the General or Q&A section for non-actual-development related threads.

I think this is a perfectly legitimate place for his post. This is a Q&A section, he has several concerns about the GN2 and as a result he is asking whether he has gone bananas...

[Help]Wanting to flash to different carrier

So I'm on bs sprint and still have a little over a year for my contract to be up so if all's well I will be flashing me and my gfs phones to another carrier and buying out of our cantract since we're basically paying 200 dollars for the same service. I'm wondering if anybody is willing to help me out with the flashing process (this will be my 1st time) by directing me to the best carrier to flash to how toos and so fourth. I'm currently rooted and my gf isn't but I can have that done in minutes when it's time. I'm hoping to go to virgin boost or cricket if anyone knows anything about flashing to any of these carriers. Can online help? Please and thanks

Actually edfunkycold has been extremely helpful. No I'm not trying to be confrontational. My apologizes in advance if that's the way it sounds. The threads that edfunkycold pointed you to have the information necessary to complete what you want to do. There is going to be quite a bit of reading, and research involved. Especially as this is your first time. The best advice I can give you is read, read, and read some more. If you have any questions search the thread that pertains to what you are trying to accomplish. If you still cannot find the answer post up in that thread. Someone is usually around to help, in almost every thread. BTW, yes I do know how hard it is to search for answers to questions sometimes . Even though I've been around for a while, I still use the search function quite a bit. Sometimes more than I'd like to admit.

I honestly agree with u 100% edfunkycold cnexus and whiplash are always 1st on the scene when I need help. I just always see people saying to search. I always search b4 I post a thread and I only post a thread to get as much help as possible. There is no real filters on here and u could be stuck on the same thread for days b4 finding what u need. I also feel like posting new threads helps other noobs find things easier than finding something that was posted a year ago. I honestly meant no disrespect to anybody on these forums especially the people that's always helping and if any was taken i apologize

No offense taken at all. But read what you wrote. You feel that by starting a new thread it helps new noobs find it. You don't think that adds to the already hundreds of threads which exist, many of them repeated questions on the same topic? Now that is going g to make it even more difficult for a new person to find the thread with the correct information.
Keep in mind the longer threads with more activity are usually the ones with all the right answers. Some reading and searching will be necessary. Within the thread itself you can search that specific thread to get the information you need and the results come back in order from newest post to oldest post.
I search every day, I search mostly for people that are looking for answers. Keep in mind I do it all from my phone mobile so I only use the app.

Yes I understand that but thanks to people like u and the others I mentioned links are posted to those threads right on the pages we often look for. Even tho there are repeat questions not everyone has the same desire there fore when the links a provided we get helped as much as we can by this. This isn't a dispute or argument in anyway but a "noobs stand point of thinking" if that's what u wanna call it. Maybe this explains it or maybe it doesn't but it shows we have a high regard for this Site instead of going to another forum or Google searching our issues (which most leads back to here). This is a good Site and everyone is loved here especially by us noobs. I'm not sure if u seen it but a while ago I wrote a thank you post cause what u guys do here is awesome and if it wasn't for u guys my phone would be plain old vanilla my mind bored and a bunch of noobs lost hopelessly. Maybe if we can get some filters on here maybe for dates or key words or different updates there wouldn't be soo many repeat threads. U said yourself u search using your phone (as do I 99% of the time) how long does it take u to usually find a thread you've never seen on a topic u barely have any info about?

If you go Boost or Virgin you will need a donor phone,If you go Cricket you will not as they allow flashed phones on their system.Crickets service is OK but with a flashed phone you will always be 3G no 4G. The S3 is a fairly easy phone to flash you can do it with QPST. Or since you are in louisville the corporate stores can flash it for you pretty cheap.

Yes it's about 50 to 100 dollars tho I think. But I'd rather learn it myself and hustle their customers instead of them hustling me lol. I'd be fine with 3g that's all I get with sprint anyway. Can u explain the qpst thing? I've seen it b4 but don't quite understand it

Use this guide only instead of using DFS use QPST http://www.cricketusers.com/cdma-sa...galaxy-s3-cricket-talk-text-mms-internet.html you could use DFS as well I just prefer QPST and a note if you use QPST write two profiles enable both of them and just make one active seems to work better that way.

Cm-10.2 WE R OFFICIAL

weve made it we are know official on cyanogenmod..... ty SHELLNUT2,spleef ,team_lgog,bmp777..idk who else but any who contributed to making it possible....
official page :http://wiki.cyanogenmod.org/w/Ls970_Info

Been checking every so often for nightlies. Can't wait. Like I've said before this is the most excitement I've had for this phone since I bought last Nov!

There's levels too this and shellnut took it to the next,..

I don't usually post the "Hey this is a duplicate thread" responses, but this really is not a necessary thread. You even commented on the other thread, why could this not have just been an update over here?
This kind of stuff just clogs up the forums and makes it more difficult for people to find what they want. It's great that we are an official CM device, but it's already been brought to our attention. Anything else on the matter should be posted the original thread.

Well I don't try to post stuff like this but once people started finding out I knew there b multiple posts about and multiple posts asking questions so I figure one thread to cover what ever people need to know or ask about it ... Sorry didn't mean to make y'all mad....
