Do you think getting a power bank is good as an alternative in prolonging the battery?
It's like connecting the phone with the power bank while on the go.
Many people say that answering calls while it's charging is not good(some claimed that it might explode hmm.gif ), but if play games/online while it's connected to the power bank, is it ok?

Forgot to mention, there was once, when I tried to charge with my laptop's USB port, I put it charging at 3am (25%) but once I woke up at 9am my battery turned 6%??? Connected to USB port charging yet the battery didn't get charged but decreased? I unplugged from the charger then plug it back to wall charger then... This is so weird...  hmm.gif

Maybe your laptop went into sleep mode which causes that usb to not supply any power.
Charging through laptop's USB port is slower than using a power adapter.

if you want to answer call while charging with portable power bank,better use bluetooth.
you can play games/online while you charging with portable power bank, definitely you will feel warm with your phone.it is fine but not advisable
*
Haha. I was thinking of getting a power bank from you but running out of budget this month.
Might consider getting one and thanks for your feedback.

Later they say they make something like rubber like xperia. No more worries on scratched back.  whistling.gif

I think Samsung could make the whole device scratch-resistant, just that it will add to the weight and cost.
And if things don't wear and tear, how are they going to make money? biggrin.gif

Rubber like material (not sure of the current technology) will turn to some sticky surface after long-term usage.

You can get it from here. Unless you can get someone selling locally here.

The back cover (from the above website) seems a bit different from what I am having now on my MW S3. hmm.gif

My wrong, it's a protective shield... not the back batter cover... notworthy.gif

My Baseus - Platinum Series (Metallic Silver) casing seriously reduces the reception not only cellular but WiFi strength. Those using the casing, you can try removing them to see the signal strength.

I get 2-3 bars of mobile network with the case but 3-4 after removing the case.
Same goes to WiFi.

Anyone facing this problem?
Does other casing affects the reception as bad as the Baseus do?

now u know y samsung uses plastic for their phones now?  rolleyes.gif

remember the gps signal issue with the transformer prime? there's always a trade off.
*
The GPS antenna on the S3 is located on the top, near the speakers
while the main antenna is located at the bottom. Seems like almost 80% of the back area is covered.
Hmmm.... but no case, tak nampak gaya.
Unless just put a protective shield on the back... but it's so expose to scratches. hmm.gif

yeah its card registration fees.
last time i registered then charged usd1.
then i delete the card data for safety purpose.
after that when want to buy next apps i registered the same card again.
then got charged another usd1  sweat.gif
*
So meaning that it's just for authorization purposes. rclxms.gif
I removed my credit card data after purchasing an app too.

So if they were to charge US1.00, meaning that each time I would want to purchase apps,
I will be charged USD1, macam ini not worth! I don't like my credit card info to be stored online.

You too free I think! It is safe, not really need to remove.

Not difficult to remove from Google Wallet. LOL.

But like what ppl say, consider this 2 situation.
You insert your credit card details online or you hand over your credit card to a waiter for payment.
Which one more secure?
For me, I trust online than the waiter.
Normally those fraud happens when we expose our card to other ppl.

But now got those SMS notification, no need to worry so much.
Each time got purchase, got SMS message.

Is only a one time charge
Why so paranoid over this security issue
Every time I click purchase I get immediate SMS notice from my cimb MasterCard about my purchase
It is safer to use card online than actual using it in retail stores
*
Dulu no SMS notice ma...
Moreover, not so used to purchase apps last time.
Now different jor.... tongue.gif

I have been buying  apps ( iOS, windows n android) past 6 years n I have zero issues on security. In fact with immediate SMS notifications it is even safer
Removing n reentering each time your CC details online exposes even more security risk. Once key in leave it there
*
Because last time in iOS, once your payment info is in their database, after you login, you can just buy apps easily.
No logout button. So kena b4 1 kid go and tap buy 2-3 apps from my iPad.

But now in Andriod. Im still new to the OS. S3 is my first Andriod device.

I just got Anymode Hard Case White from marcus.
Much better than my previous casing.
Though a bit exposed on the side but it feels good!
The surface looks like the Toyota Car Pearl White. tongue.gif

Nice case.  thumbup.gif

Does it add any bulk to the phone? Is the case very tight and not easy to take off?
*
It's much easier to remove as it only holds tight at the top and bottom.
Nope, it won't add any bulk to the phone, it still maintains the beautifulness of the phone.
It's not so visible to oil stains.

The good thing about this case is that when you swipe from left to right or right to left,
the case do not have a slight height on the edge.

The case looks nice but like not much protection one.. blush.gif

Minimal protection rather than no protection lor. tongue.gif
If really want full protection, have to get the flip cover or the tough case.
However, using these kind of smart phones, no matter how good the protection,
still have to be careful. smile.gif
