Turn off face detection on pictures? - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

Is there a setting to turn off the yellow box on all pictures that shows a detected face? It kind of gets in the way sometimes..

Try going to the picture from the gallery, press menu, select face tag and toggle it off. I think that should work

Wow. Incredibly simple and I didn't even see the toggle. Thanks.

Way to dim the touch-keys?

Is there any way to dim the touch keys? On my white s3 they are the brightest in low light conditions. I know I can shut them down in the system menu without a hack, and but I like to see them in daylight.

Would be great to have an option to dim them....

I don't think there is a way to dim them.
I just turned mine off, they were way way too bright.
I know where they are anyway...
Yeah. Good point. I know where which key is too, but my wife doesn't, and on her HTC her keys are switched in function.

Ringtone/Crescendo

Am I the only person that has this issue? I when I receive call the volume starts really low then shoots up to max volume. This is annoying. I have looked thru the options to see if I clicked something by accident but can't find anything.
Any help guys?

Turn off "pocket mode" in your sound settings.

Hey bro, Go to the phone app of your phone (dialer or contacts) press the menu button and press the "call settings" button. Option should say "Increase volume in pocket" or something around those lines depending on the rom. Just un-check that and done!
thanks elracing

Are you sure smart stay is not turn off in setting?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Yeah, its definitely turned on.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
have you tried using different lighting conditions?
mine only worked during afternoons, and even during then, its a hit or miss.
so i ended up just disabling it.
Tried under all conditions, the eye icon in the status bar just wont appear. Used to work before, don't know why its stopped.

In my case its working just fine, but after i turned it on first time i had to reboot my phone. Now is working (almost) perfect. If its oto dark front camera see s*** and power off the screen if you dont touch the screen.
Try to disable this feature, reboot your phone, turn smart stay on and reboot one more time. Should work.

Have you checked your front camera? Is it working right?
Camera is working fine, use it on Tango and for snapping photos.

Try to also enable power save mode, maybe this will help. ???
Still no luck

Glad to see I'm not the only one with this problem.
Fix
Look under Settings->Security->Lock Screen->Secured Lock Time and see if any of the options is selected. Select the option you like and this might fix the problem (it fixed mine).

Choose TV on Allshare Play?

Hello,, on previous stock firmware if you watched a video or looked at a picture it allowed you to play to a Samsung tv. First you had to click the tv icon then you were provided with a list of available devices to play to
Now if you press the tv icon it plays to the tv automatically, no option to choose
Is there any way to change this, it's really annoying because sometimes I press it accidently and it's annoying if I'm in a different room and somebody is watching tv
Icon I'm referring to

Turn your Wi-Fi off.
Failing that, don't press it!

What do you mean by it doesn't work.
I've never had an issue with it.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
Literally stops working. No haptic feedback and it doesn't go back in apps. Have to hit home button.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda app-developers app
I experience this as well every now and then. It seems like you really have to press it full finger for it to register. Any ideas?
