When i dial a number I get a water dripping sound ... - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

... but when I delete a mis-typed digit I don't get a water sucky-up sound - this absolute RUBBISH.
Other than this, 8 weeks in, I've not found another fault with the phone.

used to have it when I unlocked the screen every time. later realized it was a background app giving connectivity error. check your dialer's settings.

[Q] LED indicator on S II

Hi Guys
I was curious to know whether there is an LED indicator on the S II (i had an atrix before, and kinda got used to the blinking LED for notifications.) . The captivate dint have it either. I wonder whether any of the samsung phones has this feature at all.

No, there isn't. But there'll be alternatives! There's already a topic on this with a few good replies.
EDIT: Try looking at this, should hopefully answer a few questions http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1024473
Probably not...but you can use noled from the market

HaHaHa... Classic.
Although I did wish for some sort of a LED indicator, but wont miss it as I don't have it on the iPhone anyway.
Bln-control could be used..not as bright but still does the work.

If your not using your screen much which clearly your not then it is going to be something other than screen at the top, learn how percentages work.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Actually it IS a known issue and there are a few threads on it already.
How is this an issue? Like Lennyuk said, if you don't use your phone that much, then obviously standby would be the nr. 1. power drain.
Actually, both arguments could be correct...
Unless the stock software is extremely efficient, and makes the screen somehow super efficient, then it would be normal for standby to be that high. Another point to note, is are you complaining about battery life? or just the fact that a number on some statistics is high and you don't like it?
The counter argument to that is, if you look at mine on CM9, cell standby is a lot lower. Make of that what you want.

{q}what hell is wrong with text on s3???

I am coming from an HTC One X and I am generally very pleased with the SGS3....The speed, camera,battery etc. Everything seems better except one thing that is bugging me a lot....I am talking about the UGLY HALOS AROUND TEXT.
I realize Samsung does this oversharpening of everything on-screen (mdnie) but text on grey background especially suffers like the "settings menu in Google Talk"
Am I the only one hating this thing about the display?? Samsung should give us some setting to disable it
In over 2 months of owning the S3 I have never noticed any halos anywhere.

I can post a screenshot but I dont think it will convey too much of what I can see, Maybe some people can not quiet see the effect but coming from a One x., this seems very obvious

There are some jagged edges on the text outlines which is quiet visible to my eyes. Hope you guys can see it

Well, text is not super sharp and a little jagged edges. But I don't see the so called 'halos' around texts.

Dimple on back of HTC One? Normal?

Does anyone else have a dimple/dent that goes from the bottom of the rear camera to the AT&T logo? Its like a line dent.
Thanks
Nope
Nope... Let me guess you didn't do anything that will cause it?

Thats the way it came.. I guess I could take it back to AT&T and have them pull out another one to compare and return it if the other one is not dented..
A guy at best buy said it had something to do with teh 0 space deign or something.. I think he was full of it..
I have a random dent/dimple on my HTC One on the right side of the back; I never dropped the phone or anything. It's my work phone so I'm not going to go jumping through hoops for a replacement because I have a case on it but if it was my personal device I'd be exchanging it in a heart beat.
I have strange, antenna like structures coming out of my One's earphone jack, and they seem to be watching me, spooky.

I had three of them around the camera. Looked like zits. I took it right back in to best buy and exchanged it. The new one doesn't have it. So if you got it I'd recommend an exchange.

I went to AT&T on the 15 th day thinking I had plenty of time. Guess I should've read the receipt. I was thinking I still had 30 days to return it,, Oh well. It's not that noticeable, but I know it's there, so it bothers me a little..

Water fell on home button.

About 5-10 drops, wiped almost immediately and heated with air dryer. Could it still possibly cause damage?
Does it work?
Sent from the little guy
Didn't seem affected, I'm just worried about issues coming later on.
Well, you can rice it up for a night.
Doesn't sound too bad anyway, don't freak out just yet.
Sent from the little guy
Sorry but I dunno what it means "rice it up"..?
Put it in a bowl with rice and lock the bowl tight.
Sent from the little guy
If you do suffer any problems, there is a good technique by dripping a few drops of alcohol into the home button which will clean up the inside and make the home button more responsive.
I've done that for my aging 5 year old iPod touch which home button stooped being responsive, and after that it felt like new again.
That is if you have any problems in the next few days.

Yeap, 99% alcohol.

I've had that before (got stuck out in a sudden downpour, sending a text for a pick up to save me walking). That was about 3 months ago, so far no bad effects
