Burning S3 issue solved! - General Topics

Engadget recently made an article showing that the reason that the Galaxy S3 burned was because the owner put it on the microwave because it got wet, Silly guy.

Say whaaaaaaaaat?!?! Man, i heard and saw weard stuff in my life but this is LOL

I'm madly amused by the fact that he got a replacement phone over the whole thing. I'll laugh if he gets an invoice for it.

Now THAT is what I call stupid

Can we get a link? I know this isn't English class, but citations are a part of any relevant argument.

Yeah, its called fraud and he has denegrated samsungs name with a deceptive claim. You don't have any idea how much business they have lost because of this claim. They should bill him to discourage other morons from dlpulling similar stunts.

I've heard they were going to put out this magazine before, and to me, its pretty much a joke of a magazine.
Let me give you an excerpt from the first page which made me laugh:
"In a world full of roadblocks, rules and lame limitations, Droid has none. It empowers you to do life on your terms, in your own time."
I'm sure you are all laughing right now.
Lets see, Droid has no limitations..... I'm assuming they aren't including forced bloatware and forced custom UI's? Right....
"It empowers you to do life on your terms..."
Obviously except for not being able to remove apps you don't want on your phone, or to choose to have a pure Android experience without Motoblurcrap or Sense or any other (I don't really mind Sense, but it's the principle!)
Other than that, the magazine is just trying to sell you accessories and phones. [/QUOTE]
The only reason it was mailed out.
Doc
It was a complete joke and nothing at all like what they were trying to promote before it came out. Marketing bull.
Truly scary would be a magazine titled "BlackBerry!" Can you imagine the sorry crap an issue of that would contain?!
Magazines still exist? Damn.
Magazines still exist? Damn.

people lie man.but who knows
everything is possible.Hope die last.
Here in Spain it's possible. I swear.
I hear it's only possible if you're rooted.
Breaking news: Just heard my wife's sister was in the post office today and she was sitting next to a women who had been in the local library, and she'd overheard the greengrocer telling the butcher that he'd seen a documentary on Discovery where Winston Churchill recounted a tale of a story he'd heard about a time-travelling clam who'd spilled under interrogation that it is indeed possible.
If you take the original posting into account, you'll notice that one is incredibly random, and the other is a heart-warming story about a time-travelling clam.
wtf?haha
Churchill must had some rooted device too and coz of that i will change my mind and say its possible (wtf i'm talking about :S)
I'm not really sure if its possible yet any ideas

In my opinion, yes. You just need to select that menu, scroll down to the drop-down menu thing and select 'Possible'.
If the 'possible' option is not available then it would would appear I was mistaken.
volume down + home button + draw cycles 3 times with left hand and here u are
..certainly possible,
although you might need to switch 'Wax' on and then 'Wax' off..
I knew it!!!!

I just think its ironic its an unlockable bootloader and the first "Android Development" thread is telling people to duct-tape their phone.

When I had my G2, I didn't need to do this. I just used the default setup. LoL!!
I guess wii can do this if wii don't ever plan on using the Qwerty for actual typing. LoL!! Sorry, but this guy here hates software keyboards and software keyboards doesn't like him. That's why he always types 'b' or 'v' instead of space. And stock ICS Keyboard tries it's hardest to fix that too. LoL!! :silly:
Best first post in development thread I ever saw! LOL!
I'd love to see a little snap on cover that made this possible...I always end up mashing the other keys anyways, plus I'd want to retain normal keyboard usage.

No reason for that. Though I agree this is probably the wrong section for a keyboard mod.

When I get mine and perform a system dump, I plan on porting this over to this phone. That would be perfect with your Mod.

If you haven't got the time to search, how have you got the time to reply here.
I'm not giving the link because one of the main rules of this site is to search.

Lile i said. we got rained out. you got a job? Rained out. cant work because it qas raining. rules? All types of posts and linls on this thing. why bother ansqering if all you gunna be is a small childish fool?
Yes I have got a job, but that's irrelevant.
I'm not gonna spoonfeed anyone the answers. I've already told you where to look, so if you can't follow those simple directions you really shouldn't be on this site.
I'm not gonna reply again so there's no point in you replying either.

Really, you clam you're 35, but could you at least speak English ? Or at least spell properly ? I'm failing to see how other members are supposed to help when your posts have the spelling of a modern day rap song plus, I've seen younger members on this forum who are more polite and actually speak proper English than you.
@op
if you got no time to search then how come you will get time to use your newly bought phone.
Only ask and respond logicaly here.

Oh yes it does...
On a serious note, make sure to blow into the microphone.
If you have a headset or bluetooth earbuds in, then that's where your microphone will be. If not it's the grill on the bottom

It works for me on my hd2, just blow into the mic area where you speak into. It reacts to the blowing noise.
Silly game, but a bit of fun. It is probably earning a lot for the dev from advertising.
A pity my hd2 doesn't have more than 2 touches, can't stem the bloodflow over that number.
