What version of Flash are you on?

I'm on 10.1.105.333 ... It was preinstalled
Then I guess you should go to market and update flash to 10.3

I've updated and the problem is still there ... The notification bar covers the top
Yeah, I have this too. Bloody irritating when trying to watch iPlayer etc.

+1 wasn't bother until I realised that the status bar is actually on top on the video so you lose about 6% of the image.
I have the same problem... are you using litening rom by any chance? I didn't have this issue using stock and was wondering if it's litening specific. I asked in the litening thread but no answer.
I'm running stock KE7 KE4 KD1 (CPW) ... Which stock were you running before?

Anybody received 2.3.5 update?

Hi guys,
I'm from NZ and I just read unlocked version GT-i9100 has got 2.3.5 update today on pocketnow.com
My one is GT-i9100 and it's from Singapore as far as I know but I haven't received any update through kies software.
Please let me know how many users here have got it
Oh, I'm still stuck with 2.3.3...t.t
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
you can get it via downloaded package and import that with odin ! i got 2.3.5 on my sgs2 but it seems im having problems with usb connection !
Hm I have already updated by odin but it seems slower and more buggy(oh screen scrolling only) than 2.3.3 so I returned to KI2.
Actually I preferred none overflow scrolling so I want to update to 2.3.5 but I don't like laggy when scrolling the homescreen so I came back.
Anyone have same problem as me after updating to 2.3.5?

If you've already got your google account synched, you can install a new launcher directly to the phone from market.android.com. If you don't, reflash and remember to back up everything next time.

help on updating...

i would like to update my firmware on my galaxy s3. but it seems i couldn't find the update button, i know that it could be found at the settings>about device>update. but there's no update button there.
Did you install any custom Rom??

nope. i didin't install any custom rom
1. Make sure your phone is connected to wi-fi.
Simply pull down the notification area and press
the leftmost button named Wi-Fi. Alternately you
could do this using mobile data but this could get
expensive if you are not on a data plan with your
operator.
2. Press the apps icon to take you to your apps.
3. Find and press the settings icon to take you to
the settings menu.
4. Scroll down to the bottom of the screen and press
the About Device.
5. At the top there is a tab named Software update, press it.
6. On the next screen there is a tab named Update,
press that one.
7. Your phone will now connect to the Samsung
servers and if there is a update available the
upgrade should start imminently.sent from my HTC One V using xda premium

Are you on orange??

it's not on at&t. i'm guessing it's on orange cause i see that when im rebooting my phone
Then that's the problem , it is removed by bloatware that the network installs so you can only install via kies

thanks again. i will try this on weekend. could i remove this orange?
I think that if you update to jellybean the orange will go and any sim will work because I remember that I had a telestra tab which was running eclair but when I updated it to froyo telestra was gone.but I'm not sure if it will work on sg3.in phone section ask the devs if that is possible or flash a rom
Sent from ma 5assak
Just flash a stock Rom with Odin, that will blow all the orange bloat to kingdom come!
ok, i'll just wait until aug 29 to see if jellybean can remove this.
@slaphead20 - i prefer not customizing my ROM. unless, jelly bean can not remove orange.

Stock rom is not customized its Samsung stock rom .
Your official JB will be via Orange .
Or you can flash stock JB rom when it arrives before Orange release .

Every thread ive checked on the matter seems to have a method that doesnt work
Was looking for someone that has successfully changed the carrier on an international variant
Btw im running stock 4.1.2
I am using ReVolt JB and in my settings there is an option to change carrier label.
