Lightflow is popular for LED control, but it KILLED my battery (my coworker encountered the same thing with his Bell phone)

Any news when the titanium grey s3 will release?

What is a good simple notepad app, where you actually draw what you want to write down on a piece of paper on-screen, NOT TYPE

Thanks in advance.

It was on sale just last month during Google's celebration for 25 cents. Dont think it will be on sale again so soon.

I bought it for full price a month before the sale. Fuuuuuuuuu

Hey guys,

I've installed onavo to keep count of my data since I only have 1gb data. Every day I seem to use ~15-20mb of data on "platform apps" (with an android logo on it). What is this exactly?...is it syncing of gmail or something?

Delete that app, there's a built in data tracker

S Memo comes pre-loaded with your S3. That's simple, and allows typing/writing on screen.

Irritating flickers on screen sometimes. Do you guys notice it?

[J-force]

seriously? what screen do I have to find this tab? I tried the other day on my ipod touch with no luck!

Ios6 has the tab, ios5 had it in the updates tab. Unless touches are different

My battery life has almost doubled since I've switched to a new Jelly Bean ROM. So pleased with the results. I used to get about 7hours use before too...Now I'm rocking at least 14-16 hrs a day.

[MadMax]

Yea, i notice this too before, but it was something to do with the rom. If you're using a custom rom, that could be the culprit.

Jelly Bean Rom (FrostyJB):

[ROM][LI6&LI7]~FrostyJB_4.1.1-v7~[11.6.2012] - xda-developers

Please look into the threads to make sure it's compatible with your phone. I'm on T-Mobile and this one worked for me. Make sure it's compatible with Rogers/AT&T if that's what you're on.

^v7 gave me more blue screen flickering sick rom otherwise

[Vansterdam]

any recommendations for spare/extra batterys?

been looking at these

13$ for a OEM spare battery
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/SAMSUNG-GALAX...#ht_3437wt_734

+3$ for a external battery charger that also charges your phone at the same time
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/USB-Battery-C...ht_3811wt_1174

i heard the oem charger dock cradle thing sucks since you can only charge one battery at time by taking it out of the phone

I'm still on v6 and I have blue flickering but it only happens maybe once a week. I thought v7 was supposed to eliminate that problem all together...

What are you using now?

I LOVE LOVE LOVE GoogleNOW. It's absolutely amazing! It's already figured out what sports I watch and what teams I like and sends me cards with updates automatically.
