    Galaxy S5: How's everyone's battery life so far?

    I want to know this info as well. I have an S3 with Verizon and I have the monster Zerolemon 7000mah battery. I am a very heavy user (browsing throughout the day, sometimes streaming audio from the XM app), and I hate hate HATE using Wifi at home. I still have unlimited data (paying full price...

    Did Samsung just push an update to my long-time-rooted S3!?

    Ok, I found out how to fix the issue in case anyone else runs into this problem: Use a file explorer (I used Root Explorer) to go into /system/app and delete "SDM 1.0." Then, you have to delete update.zip that downloaded to /cache/fota (again, I used Root Explorer). I had one extra prompt when...

    Did Samsung just push an update to my long-time-rooted S3!?

    Hello, I posted on another forum, but figured I should post everywhere I can! I have been rooted since I got the s3 pretty much around launch. Today around lunch I noticed an update download progress so I swiped down, long-touched, and the process said SDM 1.0. It had just finished downloading...

    Cwm / file manager question

    You'd have to install TWRP from something like GOOmanager app. That app has a script that overwrites and replaces CWM. TWRP has a great touch interface too.

    Cwm / file manager question

    The appearance of that BLOBS folder make me say bleep you to CWM and switch to TWRP. It's so much better. I didn't know BLOBS is safe to delete.. I initially copied it from my SD to PC (since I love having multiple backups of everything) and it took about 2.5-3 hours to copy one backup +...

    question on CWM

    I just switched to TWRP. Much better IMO. You can install it from Goomanager.

    [ROM] Official CM10 Nightlies on your GS3!

    All I've done is root to my s3 so far. I used to flash my tbolt a bunch and have finally decided to copy my cwm backup to my pc + external drives, but copying this #(#*!( stupid blobs folder has said "22 hours left" for the last 30 minutes... wtf happened to cwm backups?!

    [WARN] Before You Root/Unlock/Flash -- Read This -- New OTA Info

    Yea, true. Just gotta think about which ROM to install now. :) I didn't think ahead though.. I bought a 64gb card the day after I got this phone and it seems like NOTHING saves to it by default. perhaps I should've gone 32gb? I'm so used to the tbolt in that I would back up on the 32gb sd and...

    [WARN] Before You Root/Unlock/Flash -- Read This -- New OTA Info

    Yay! :) I downloaded the ez unlock 1.2 and unlocked the bootloader. I was just worried about installing CWM before unlocking... never had to do that with my other phones (N1, tbolt)

    [WARN] Before You Root/Unlock/Flash -- Read This -- New OTA Info

    Is there any way to find out if you installed the new OTA in device information? I never received a prompt to update, but am worried that it may have been installed silently when I was sleeping or somethin.

    Bootloader unlock question - probably stupid

    I hope I did not get the OTA installed stealthily. I never received requests to update my phone so I rooted yesterday and it completed flawlessly (then installed titanium, etc).. I froze SDM 1.0. Is there something in the device info that would indicate you got the OTA? Edit: I just rebooted...
