I'm way out of date on the subject matter. I still have my Sprint GS3, rooted, stock ROM, V 4.1.2, with tethering app installed (3.3-beta2-06102013). The latest I remember was when the next higher O.S. became available for the GS3 the KNOX feature made it so it couldn't be rooted (or something...

Found the problem, windows downloaded an update for Vista that was something for connecting an android device, I didn't remember the name of the update, but afterwards the phones connects and the laptop recognizes it fine. Went back and checked my update history, this is the detail of the...

Desktop has XP and it works fine, laptop has Vista and it won't recognized either phone.

GS3, 4.1.2, 3.0.31-1130792 kernel, stock rom, rooted. I rooted my phone at home using my desktop which is running XP, all is fine, computer sees the phone whenever I plug it in to access files, pictures or whatever. So I brought my laptop into work to root my friend's phone, same phone, I...

AHHHH, tapping on the words opens a pop-up menu, I didn't realize that, I thought there was only the on/off toggle there - thank you.

I just downloaded ES File Explorer V 3.0.5.3. The phone is rooted, I am able to go to the files and "try" to rename them, but when I press OK I get a message "task is failed" and the file names stay the same, even, after a reboot. The menus in this version of ES seem to be a bit different than...

I found it and turned it off, I'll wait and see if it works. I do it to conserve battery life, I don't get any critical emails that need immediate attention. And I just turno on the data connection when I want to surf the web or download emails. Been doing it with my Pre (which suffered from...

Apparently only certain app are capable of being run in multi window mode....correct? Where to I find the access to these setting to alter the configuration? So the regular 3G/4G triggers the wi-fi to turn on when the mobile data is turned off.....? I keep my wi-fi and mobile date off normally...

Actually, that conclusion seems to have been a bit premature. I thought the slide out tab on the left side of the screen was it, but it's not. I was searching through the play store and I wanted to check something on the phone app and I realized I couldn't swipe the play store into a minimized...

I updated the phone and fixed on issues, being able to assign specific ringtones for txt mssgs for each contact. Right now I'm fight with the wifi, I turn it off and it keeps turning itself back on. When I launch the browser it opens to the last page viewed, not the home page. The date doesn't...

Cool, thanks.

I love my Pre also, just with the recent sale to LG I doubt HP will keep the cloud service alive much longer, and combined with a stagnant device I figured I might as well switch. But since you have experience with the Pre, there is nothing here on android like it was with the patches on WebOS...

So on my Pre I was able to customize certain individual behaviors by installing patches. Been doing the reading on rooting my new Sprint G S3, and from what I can tell you need to install ROMs, I get that. But ROMs are all re-packaged combinations, essentially a package of patches - correct...
