im planning to get my s3 soon.. but one thing i concern is, i usually use the data internet under my ohone line for my normal internet usage on laptop. so usually ill connect thru usb tethering to pc n ill online. im using htc legend now and somehow it heat up very fast while i usb tethering fr quite some time. i admit ill usb tethering quite long each time. one week probably ill usb tethering 2 to 3 days, each time will definitely more than 3hrs even up to whole noon.
so i concern if i were to usb tethering s3 like how i have always used, will it damage the new s3 as it will definitely heat up most of the time? if yes, then i may probably need to consider to get another internet plan for my laptop usage.

QUOTE(apisfires @ Jun 15 2012, 04:38 PM) yes can tethering, but for laptop or desktop, better buy usb 3g modem for it...  yea i know can usb tethering. but will it damage the phone in the long run as it will heat up the phone for a long time. tot of i never use so much on the internet, no need to fork out extra money to pay the internet bill, so will just share the internet with phone.

QUOTE(n8210 @ Jun 16 2012, 06:53 PM) Got my pebble blue today. 1 question: after rooting, I didn't get the yellow triangle. So must I do the yellow triangle process? I think I will flash to other custom roms in future. So when do I reset this "counter"? Don't quite understand this new thing. mind to share where did you get ur pebble blue?

QUOTE(farscope @ Jun 18 2012, 09:31 AM) how long ago? if possible, try request for exchange.. if cannot then send back to SC.. it should reach 100% if u still have the power cable attached with supply on.. few min drop 1% is quite severe, what did u install? just brought back yday night, and charge it for like an hour the LED turn green d, but only 99% then browse thru the phone for awhile realised few mins drop 1%.. haven yet to download n install anything yet. then when i go to bed, i put to charge for like 3 hours n more still up to 99% only. i saw some other forum saying that 99% beacuse it prevent to go up till 100% ,overchagred..

QUOTE(farscope @ Jun 18 2012, 10:07 AM) the 99% battery is really not an issue.. charge it a few more times then it will be fine. i'm more concern about yr claim that the battery drop 1% every few minutes. can describe further how does it occur? i brought back yday and let it charged for like an hour plus then it turned green and 99%, so i somehow browse thru the fon and i noticed few mins it can drop 1%. i think playing for less than an hour or an hour plus like that, it drop till 90 or 80 +. (if not mistaken,sorry for forgotten d) how long should i first charged for the first time?i bought it under plan from digi. if wanna bring back, should bring to any samsung SC or the one that the guy told me opposite times square? should i try take out the battery n start charging again and see??.so far haven tried that yet.

QUOTE(farscope @ Jun 18 2012, 12:04 PM) sounds normal to me. of course yr phone battery will drop if u r using it. may i ask izit your first smartphone? most of the first time user for smartphone will be paranoid about the battery. try use a few more days and see. also monitor stand by time battery.. this is my second android. but this drop like very fast. few ins drop 1%. however ill try out to restart n charge again. ive tried charging to 100% while off the fon, then switch on back to 99%, so i think this is normal. ill continue to observe the battery consumption in this few days.

QUOTE(arj @ Jun 18 2012, 03:17 PM) Sucky battery life within the first few days is perfectly normal. After my first recharge it took the phone only around 12 hours to reach 10% from full. A week later with some tweaks as well, I can get over 24 hours with same usage patterns. Surfing on the internet wil caused battery drop one percent every 2 minutes oor not?? Caused mine is like that if I on the mobile data and surf around. Is that normal ??

Why I can't usb tether and hotspot?? Connected to usb cable then I tick on the usb connection on my phone but it refused to connect. Then I tried hotspot it won't turn on. But it is charging thru the computer. Is it because of my phone low on battery,15%??
