Thanks for the reply! One clarification, though.... The phone's not "active" any more. I believe it deactivated when I activated the Note That means it won't get OTAs, right Thanks again

I got to messing with my Sprint S3 and got all super brave with it because I had pretty much already decided to see what I could do with it or just get a Note 3. I got it rooted and got a cyanogenmod nightly on there. I wasn't super enamored with it, so I decided to ditch that and start over. I...

I figured out what the poom ping was, with no help from the phone. It means "please don't use the Micro USB cable from your HP Touchpad to charge me from the wall. Even though I've charged nicely to 100%, I'm very unhappy about it". Curiously, in a house full and two vehicles worth of dangling...

I can't change mail sounds unless I set them to notify - so I did and they were all set to silent, then I set unnotify. I guess I just have to live with it or get off TW. New thing of the moment: a rash of "poom ping!". Sometimes once a second, for about 20 minutes. Like the whistling, I just...

I slide them away - all except voicemails and text, which of course won't go away. I THINK it feels the need to renotify me about everything every time I change networks. I sleep with it, and it doesn't wake me up at night or do it much in the house, but shortly after I leave home, it starts...

Is there a list somewhere of what all whistles? Because I clearly don't know what all whistles. I've turned off notifications on all my email accounts. I don't really get texts, and I don't use the regular Sprint voice mail. My phone goes on a mad whistlefest - 20, 30 whistles in 10-20...

Here's where I'm at so far. Pretty basic, I suppose

I'm sure it depends on how you use/carry it. In my case, my phone is "supposed" to have it's own front pocket, but that doesn't keep from getting the occasional keys and change dumped in there when my hands or full or I'm being inattentive

Y'all's came with protectors? Mine didn't, and I refused to leave the store (BBM) without one, so I had to buy their only one at $25, but for that much I made the guy put it on for me. I did notice when I got home, though, it has a lifetime warranty.

I don't know how to get the image y'all are getting (screenshot app?) But here's mine from Lilburn. (edit - found the screenshot)

Thanks again for getting me sorted. I'm just glad I don't have a broken phone. I don't anticipate using it much at home anyway - I can set an alarm through Google's voice search. Kevin

Wow - that's exactly what I have - a Bluetooth home phone system. Sure enough - I turned off BT and it works fine. that seems like an odd thing. Thanks for helping me in the right direction, but did you find a workaround? Kevin

Any news on this? Mine is doing the same thing. I just got the phone yesterday and it was working on the way home. After I got home and a bunch of updates hit it, and I put some apps on, it can't hear me. Other things hear me - regular voice search, and even the lock screen - I can say "Hi...
