Hey!
In the standard clock app there is also a timer. You choose a time, start it and at the end it beeps. So far so simple.
But there is one interesting thing: sometimes the timer beeps 3 times and then stops without interaction. Other times I need to use the slider which appears on the screen after the time is up.
I am not sure when it beeps thrice, but I am sure there is a rule for that. Has anyone an idea?

I turned off all vibrate settings but I get random vibrate incoming calls. I tried phone right side up, face down, no ideas.
I've noticed this too but it seems to happen at certain battery level intervals. Not sure if it's just meant to warn me and I'm missing a message on the screen at the time or what.
My battery is full. I had my wife test call me multiple times and it did it once.i dint know what changed to make it do it but its an annoyance to me
This seems like it should be a non-issue, yet here I am.
Here is the problem. My (and I will assume all) S3's suffer from a vibration that isn't all that strong. I am coming from an archaic HD2 and everything is great with the s3 cept the HD2's vibrate could...ya know..be felt!
I have mine turned to the max but its still barely able to be felt. To make matters worse, the duration of the vibrate when I get a text or email is VERY short. When I get a text for instance, the phone vibrates for less than 2 full seconds and I miss stuff all the time. I tried different vibrate patterns but it still only vibrates for those two seconds. After creating a custom pattern I realized these vibrate patterns only take affect for incoming calls, not texts or emails.
So how on Earth (please tell me there is a way) do I increase the duration of the vibrate for texts? (emails I can live without but a 2 second vibrate when I get a text isn't going to cut it when the max vibration is so mild).
I have 2.2 stock OS, been working fine for long time, but last weekend I dropped the phone. Since then (I have powered off/on and taken battery out a couple times but no difference), the phone no longer recieves phone calls -- no ring or missed call notification; callers get sent to voicemail after 1-2 rings, and the voicemail notification does show up immediately.
2 other symptoms are that the lock screen no longer displays (phone goes straight to home screen when I press the power button), and pressing the power button for a second only shows me the Power Off option (previously it had options for Airplane mode and Data Off as well).
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Shaun
That's weird. I'd flash a different ROM and see if it works then. I have no idea why it would power up and skip the lock screen.
For the phones calls I'd think may e it messed up the SIM reader. Maybe its fitting in there funny now, or maybe its broken altogether. Maybe a fresh install of something would alleviate some symptoms and give us a clue as to what really is going on.
You were just sliced bread before you were burnt by the toaster.
Hey guys, I noticed that the phone's vibration is isn't particularly powerful and doesn't vibrate for any good length of time. Like it will vibrate for maybe quarter of a second, then nothing ,then vibrate again and the vibration is self I have a hard time noticing when I'm walking or doing anything other than siting still
Note 4 - How to stop screen from displaying/unlocking during & after notifications &
Hi all.
Two problems here which I'm presuming have the same fix.
1) This happens when I'm using the phone, say, listening to music via Bluetooth headset. When I receive a message or email, the screen will automatically light up to the unlock screen showing a notification pop up that I have a message. Because the phone is in my pocket and the screen is swipe unlocked, which I prefer, it is highly likely that the phone will unlock fully - so by the time I look at the phone it's done all sorts of things I didn't want.
2) When answering a phone call, the screen obviously lights up as normal. I have set it up so that when the phone is upright the screen will go blank. But, when I have finished a call using the headset, the screen comes back on again and shows the contact and because the phone is unlocked it ends up doing things I didn't want.
Please can someone tell me how to keep the screen off during and after a phone call or notification!
Is there a code to write or delete that can make it so that when I receive a phone call or notification I must press the power button to display the screen like I normally do to see the time?
Any assistance is very much appreciated!
Thanks
