Hi, all.
I would like to install adblock plus on a non-root z3v. Is there a way to edit/add setting>more>mobile networks>access point names>proxy?
Seems to work in this thread for android 4+ on Galaxy S2 phones: ttps://adblockplus.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=22561
Best,
Baby Ray
Does it work on your wifi? Try this first because it should do
works on wifi
Yes, this works on wifi.
Contacted verizon and they said their apn cannot be edited. The other z3 models are capable of this feature, but big red locked the settings. i feel so sad.

Edit: Ah-ha! I got the adblock browser as an alternative! Seems to be a tad slower than google chrome, but still acceptable!

I get the "not supported on your platform" notification when I try to run the application. I can't view it in Dolphin with a desktop user agent, either.
Do I need a different version of flash? I tried editing the build.prop to look like my Viewsonic GTab (which uses Nexus S/samsung, incidentally), but that didn't help anything.

same here, i can't download/install hulu plus on my sony ericsson arc s... before when it's not rooted i can still watch them. wonder if that's the problem?
EDIT:
never mind. i found a modified .apk here. xD and it's working now! although i think it's an old version.! thanks!
I just ordered an unlocked Galaxy SII from Amazon. I want to use this as just a Wi-Fi Android device, would i be able to do this with access to all android features (marketplace apps). Or do i need a SIM card just to use the device? Thanks!
If your using it as a wifi only then no you dont need to unlock it and the market dosnt require a sim, why would you want to do this though
I know its weird, but i have the money and i want something to replace my slow Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0 and i felll in love with the S II at the store. I want to use it as a Wi-Fi only device for now because i don't use my phone very much at all and i don't want to pay for data right now.
Some apps like Whatsapp, Viber and other communication apps require simcard as ID. But you wont need any just for browsing internet, email, facebook etc. Android market doesnt require sim card too
Thanks a lot man! I was just making sure it would work like my Wi-Fi only Galaxy Player did. Thanks so much! I get it tomorrow, any ROM suggestions or should i wait till the official 4.0 update in march?
I would not recomend to use ICS roms yet if you want stable.
If you want just try... here is overview
www dot galaxys 2 roms dot com
I found good ones myself: "AndyX ROM", "Pure ICS".
Hi,
so far I have been using iOS devices and they pretty much do what I need, even without jailbrake.
Unfortunately iPhone has a small screen and the new one I don't really like (plus it is quite expensive).
I am looking at WP but it also has few down sides (for me) despite of system itself looking great!
So,, here we come to SGSIII and few questions.
On my iPad I use VPN and got myself apps from UK and US store without problem. Now I can enjoy the likes of BBC iPlayer and Netflix.
If I'll get SGSIII will I be able to do the same?
I was told SGS III has locked bootloader and I will need access to this if I want to root this phone in order to download apps (like Netflix) from Internet , not from Google Play which in Poland will not have them available.
If SGSIII (which wen down in price a bit) will not do what I need - what else (with approx 4,5" screen) should I look at?

Does it mean that I will have no problem making VPN and Netflix work on this device?
And installing Netflix app (which in polish Play is not available).
You shouldn't have any problems running netflix if you root your device all your doing is getting superuser permission. If u flash a custom Rom you may have some problems then like I flashed paranoid android v2.13 and can't use the tvcatchup anymore still looking for a fixed!
Don't hold me to it I'm just going by my experience lol root didn't change anything service wise only the rom did.
No... custom roms is not my thing - i did not even needed to jailbrake my ipad so far. As long as I can get vpn up and apps like iPlayer and netflix all the rest is enough for me - all I need is browser, mail client, access to skydrive and MS services - and I am happy.
So I can get European SGSIII and should have no problem in getting the entertainment soft working on it?
TVCatchup blocks all VPNs
Just found something called Market Enabler - will that work for me to get those app from different markets...?
Yes market enabler allows you to find and download apps that are not available in your country.

Thanks! So unlike in case of Windows Phone I should be OK.
The tab S3 received a new 250 MB+ update today. Bug and stability improvements. Also HDR Netflix now works (P.S. make sure you are in cinema display mode for best viewing experience).

Got the update as well. Android 7.0 still and only the August security patch but I did test and confirm that the BlueBorne bug was patched which I am happy about. Still waiting for that patch on my S8 :/
Glad to get hdr for Netflix finally!
But I was reaaally hoping for theme support too, or any way to turn that notification menu dark.
The update is not out for T825 :/
I tested out the LTE version SM-T825 of this tablet as someone said that this version doesn't have the wifi bug but that is not the case, it still has the very same drain issue. I did notice, however, that the drain issue went away when I was at a friend's place using an old integrated comcast router/modem, but that brings little comfort since it seems that most common routers do cause the drain on this tablet. And again in my home with the 2X WRT1900AC, my old Tab S2, S7 and current S8+ had no issues with wifi power drain so this is definitely something in the Tab S3 that causes the issue with most modern routers (tried just the 2.4 Ghz channel, an ASUS 68U and N11, an older netgear and the drain was still present). This on the latest I2 firmware.
Is Netflix working with Magisk? Netflix was installed as a system app on my tablet. I updated the firmware and rooted the tablet with magisk, but Netflix force closes on first attempt to launch it. Afterwards it loads a black screen.
Mine was updated as well but can't see HDR logo on supported titles on Netflix. What's wrong? Am I the only one affected?
I have a 4 screen + UltraHD plan, so that's not the case.
Have you confirmed that it's actually necessary to switch into AMOLED Cinema mode to get the full HDR color space? I was hoping that I could leave the tablet on Basic and that it would automatically switch to the proper mode when an HDR video was played. It would be a pain to have to switch back and forth every time, especially given the number of taps to get to that setting.
Samsung keyboard version on Tab s3
Can you please tell me the version of the Samsung keyboard?
Also, I have a Tab A 10.1 with S pen. There's no update available for the Samsung keyboard. Is it possible to uninstall it and install lastest version? My present keyboard doesn't support some new languages. Appreciate any help. [QUTE=jamesrick80;73947758]The tab S3 received a new 250 MB+ update today. Bug and stability improvements.

I downloaded latest v2 series and installed it without any problems on my Tab S3.

Thanks for your reply. I downloaded and installed the apk but unfortunately the list of available languages for download doesn't change. All the newer devices such as my Galaxy Note 8 or your tab S3 have some new languages and my native language is one of them. It's available on my Note 8 but not available on Tab A 10.1 even though now the keyboard version is same. I guess there's no way we can fix this.

When I call my girlfriend/friends I like to read the news and search things up as we talk. As you can imagine, I prefer using VOICE SEARCH as opposed to TYPING.
Well what do you know... ANDROID made it where if I'm on a phone call, I cannot use my VOICE SEARCH feature. I was always able to do this on my Samsung S8+. I bought a OnePlus 7T and now I am not able to do this.
I was about to return my phone for that reason but when I went to the Verizon store and tested out the new SAMSUNG S20 ULTRA, it's the same thing. It seems the "geniuses" at Google disabled this feature for whatever reason. Please tell me there is a way around this.
I have already deleted and disabled Google Chrome and Google Search widget because I can't watch videos while I'm on a phone call. I've confirmed this is the case with all the recent Android phones out. I found a fix around that though: FIREFOX and FIREFOX SEARCH WIDGET.
I'm losing my mind I am starting to hate Android more and more they keep making our lives more difficult. Please help me before I switch to an Apple device!
My phone info:
OnePlus 7T (model HD1905)
Build:
Oxygen OS 10.0.9.HD65AA
Android Version:

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME!

On my note 8 I used to have a problem that irritated me. From time to time google assistant will pop up when I am using speaker phone..
Sometimes it's bixby..
It is very irritating. Then the problem just vanished. Wasn't really paying attention so im not sure which update removed it.
But to me it's nice that it's removed.
You might want to check if siri will work while on the phone before switching camps.

Thank you for the response.
It has nothing to do with the voice search app. it seems when I am on a phone call my microphone is disabled for any type of voice input other than talking on the phone call. It doesn't matter what the app is. This wasn't the case on my Galaxy s8 plus and I have confirmed that this is the case for the new Galaxy s20 as well.
