I managed to get root now

Then use a system app remover app from Google play and delete flip board app may have to delete it twice for it to be actually deleted

What does it mean and how Repaired Or should screen replacement.

Screen overheats to a high temperature on one screen for awhile pixels break and image stuck there
That is my understanding
If you can live with it then it's not a big deal
If you absolutely can't stand it then screen replacement is the answer

not a big deal I think I will keep it , I used the S3 in bad condition More than that
Thanks again , I appreciate your concern .

DO NOT USE LCD DENSITY CHANGER on EPIC 4G

So after rooting I thought I would try an app that I used on the EVO and has been used on the Captivate called LCD DENSITY CHANGER 3.0. It worked great on those two devices
MUST have ROOT to use! And when you use it with EPIC 4G it will restart your screen to a lovely black screen. Buttons light up and Notification Lights up as well but the screen will stay black. Until Full ROOT with Custom Recovery stay away until fixed
You couldn't factory reset it with recovery?
There's a fix for that in the thread...

Did you guys just try getting rid of the app using adb? Sounds like something worth trying before returning the device!

I have tried that as well before I ended up returning the Phone for an exchange. I have used the APP on a lot of different phones too first time this has happened too. But now I know, shame though since that app rocks
Man, I feel sorry that my app give you all this trouble! Really. It's a hell of a job to make this app safe for every device, rom and root configuration...
Please can you give more insight in what went wrong? Did the boot manager not caused a restart with the old density setting when you got the black screen??
Did you rebooted it yourself directly after getting the black screen or did you wait for a while? (The device will reboot itself after 30 sec. when the user can't give any input )
And what is that about the partial root?
I hope you can give some feedback, because really.... I want this thing to be safe. Thanks.
After setting it to 200 it restarted automatically. When it tried to reboot it loads a black screen with sound bottom buttons light up but the device doesn't respond. I did let it sit the first time because I have tried this on the evo so I knew it would try to auto load the default 240. But nothing. Had to pull battery. After 20 - 30 min later I entered recovery and wiped data and cache but same thing happened when it booted back up.
I really do hope this gets fixed soon. It was one of those apps that I paid for that was worth it!

Thanks for your observations. I have contacted LeshaK and he gave me some great advices. I will look into this, because I really don't want to get users into trouble by trying the app out. On the other side, maybe Epic users have to wait for a full root.
I guess you don't want to be a beta tester Anyone else? Please PM me or leave a message in this thread.

wicked! wish this was out yest morning but considering the phone just came out great progress
The easiest way to fix this was to simply pull the build.prop file from /system
Open the file in notepad and find the pixel density value.
Set it to 240 or 234 if you want to be accurate. It looks best at 240 though.
this app just messed up my phone....i installed in GT-I5801 and still there is no solution i can't even exchange like he did....the same problem black screen wit no effects...what is the easiest way 2 get rid of this bootin' thing.. and it not even changing to normal...and no carrier signals...help me out!!
boot into recovery and install an old nandroid backup
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
How hard is it to change the number in the build.prop file?
Lol don't odin just reflash your rom or yes pull buildb and manuall fix it
It works perfect on my Epic with the Froyo rom. It never worked with any 2.1 rom!

Again just use it on the Froyo rom. It doesn't work on any 2.1

How to Remove Lockscreen !

Help im trying to remove my lock screen i searched the forums but came up with luck but it was no luck because when i rm the htclockscreen apk and odex i rebooted and the lock screen switched to the vanilla .. im using damage v1 .. i want to remove my lock screen completely so i can use a app lockscreen help thanks
do you have your app installed
yes i do .. but it sucks cuz sometimes it doesnt catch the htc one .. so i want to remove it and then ill have no more of those problems
helpppp meeeeeeeee
The vanilla lock can't be removed. It's part of the framework.
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
so let me get this straight. if i delete the htclockscreen.apk from my hero i will get the vanilla lockscreen???
Yes but it will be messed up if you're on a later sprint build. You still have to flash a fix, found on these forums.

im not on a sprint build.
edit: hahahah ok so just to see i did it. yep got vanilla, yep its messed up. kinda humorous. unlock and silence sliders are at top and bottom. despite arrows indicating left and right actions its up and down... clock is chopped as well... gonna look for that fix.
Here is one of the fixes
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=665652
It's a bit specific though in that it removes the clock, and removes the haptic feedback from the sliders
Battery indicator Pro has an option to disable the lock screen and it worked for me when I tried it. maybe take a look at that app...

Google.com doesn't recognize the app
nor does the Android Markert online. You might Try SlideMe.org or App Brain. i wonder why it was pulled.
There are 40 other apps that do the same thing as GTunes. Chances are they will continue to get pulled due to their functionality....which is illegal as we all know.

Also I know this isn't relevant but if any of you are running CM7 can you tell me why my lock screen animation isn't working anymore? It just makes the screen black when I lock it and not the TV looking animation

If you played around in spare parts and changed the animation speed to fast/off it stops the screen off/on animations.

Banding on google screen is it normal ?

Love the fact that the s3 has no apparent banding on most screens however ive noticed on the google email creation page there is banding ... also where the same blue is used (mainly on email sign up pages) the same banding is there
Has anyone else got this ?
Every other page is crisp and no banding i just wonder more that worry why the google page has it ?
On my note a lot of pages have banding so im not that worried its a 1000% better

I was always under the impression that was actually the design of that background image.
Hello.
Try that...
It will fix your problem.
It will work to any rom you have.

It is a default ugly background that appears in some settings/apps. It is the wrong choice of background as it makes the amoled black look like lcd black if you don't know it is the background.

New TouchWiz UI for Marshmallow users, removes Sprint branding (no root)

Some of you may have seen this:
http://www.xda-developers.com/samsu...iz-is-a-ui-giant-leap-forward-two-steps-back/
Turns out it appears to work for the Note 4 Marshmellow users as well. I've been using it for only a little bit, one change I noticed is that it removes the Sprint branding in the upper left without requiring root. I searched for the app in Galaxy Apps, it wasn't available there, but you can download the apk attached to this post
The recent apps feature is pretty terrible, but it's something different you guys can try.
EDIT: I tried this with the fingerprint scanner, it made me not able to get past the lock screen, all I saw was a blank wallpaper. I guess it works on the Note 4 but not optimized for it. I was able to finally get past it by clicking on the notifications, messing with the settings on GoodLock, causing it to crash, and then my phone rebooted with it uninstalled.
This is interesting. I'm testing it out to see how it goes. Can you say anything about battery life compared to without it?

CAREFUL!! I just set up finger print scanner with this to see how it functions, now I can't get past the lock screen, all I see is my wallpaper, even in safe mode, I might have to do a hard reset :\
Edit: finally got past the fingerprint scanner after the app crashed and made my phone reboot, and then gave me the option to type in the password instead. It worked great prior to setting that portion up though, so mixed feelings about it so far.

negative. there's a lockscreen bypass you can flash in TWRP
it simply disables your lockscreen. I have seen it and for some time, had it, but no longer thanks to a goofed internalsd format ;(
if you find it, please post link!
It felt laggy to me, I've already taken it down. I love the notification bar though

not really imo, apart from letting you group notifications and setting alerts for them, and making the notification pull down menu look closer to stock android.
Edit: I take that back. When you take a screenshot now it comes up with 3 options, more/share/crop. If you hit more, it lets you take a scrolling screenshot without having to use the s-pen.

Alright, well, I jumped back on board to see if I could make this work for me. What I did was install the APK as usual and then used TB to delete the system UI (launcher). Since I use NOVA anyway, I also deleted TouchWiz and TouchWiz Easy crap... This setup has me running faster and with better battery life than ever before! Can't wait for a kernel for this MM situation!

That's crazy that you deleted TouchWiz, didn't even know that was possible lol, hopefully you don't run into any issues, because I had it crash once which caused it to just uninstall itself from my phone.
Good Lock updated with some gesture controls (Which I have yet to test) and bug fixes.

Edit: I'll answer my own q, there is an uninstall option in the settings.
This actually seems pretty nice, I appreciate the chance from the same old Samsung noti dropdown.
I am missing the wifi calling on quick settings already, however.
Three options in the settings. Uninstall is one of them
