Do a backup from recovery. Your rom plus all your stuff will be 100% backup. Restoring back this backup will give you exactly what you have at point of backup

but i would like to install a new custom rom, do i still do that? sorry im really new at this. they say its a no wipe rom, what is it ...

Always do a backup in case you do not like the new rom or your phone hang during flashing
It is similar to putting on your safety belt
I would say backup is compulsory. Choice is yours

My phone since 31may till now perfect condition

Do not understand how some users take care
Even all my previous phone after a year usage is scratchless n like day one condition

Need a favor from u guys. Can you play YouTube videos in the browsers? Any browser will do. Can find allot in the kopitiam thread. I can't seem tob play if the default view setting is 320 and above. Can only view if it's 240. I tested on two of my friends phone.  One could work the other couldn't. There is audio but no video. Anyone?
*
so far i can play all youtube videos with zero problems
Can you give a specific youtube link that you have problem so that I can test it

Guys will you go for YoBao 4400 or 11400 battery?

I thin 4400mah is more then enough for me.

What about you guys?

I have both Yoobao 4400 and 11200 external battery charger
Both has served me well for the past 2 years
Which one depend on your usage actually - how much juice you really need

Uncle Benny....I think you miss my post lol.... I was asking on your link for Ebay where you get your back cover...also which are usual trader you get your stuff from our you trust most traders there....
For those ppl asking on Google and Paypal...it seems that some of the people from Paypal went over to Google and started Google wallet which is similar Paypal...that is why you don't get Paypal usage on Google stuff...lol...business politics....

I got it from :
http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Metal-back-cov...b#ht_500wt_1413

I have no specific sellers - i always look at the seller ratings before i buy
So far all my ebay purchases of phone batteries, chargers, cases, cables etc has been 100 % good and successful. I received most of my stuffs within 7 to 14 days. I have only one case of missed delivery of a blackberry playbook car charger from USA - did not recieved after 30 days, email seller and he immediately send me a free replacement same day by special fast air parcel from USA. The original parcel finally reach me on the 35th day

If you are trying to play the video in post #1 there is an error in the upload. cannot even view it in PC. However the subsequent link in post #4 ( fixed) plays fine directly on the phone inside the webpage. Try again on post #4
Everything is default being setup by phone . You need not do any special settings to view youtube videos on webpages

This may not be what you are looking for but one alternative is to connect your wired internet to a laptop with wifi capabilities. Then use a program called Connectify to broadcast wifi from the laptop. Then connect you S3 to that wifi broadcasted to get internet on your S3.

Connectify is I'd say the best solution

No such issues with my card 64 GB class 10. All my mp3 and movie files ( up to 2 GB ) all copied over and played well. My card is however formatted in FAT32 so that I can switch it easily to use it on my Note

I bought sandisk mobile ultra class 10 32gb in lowyat last week RM105

Nowadays so cheap. Only early last year i paid RM 220 for a Sandisk class 4 32 GB. Now with same amount and slightly less I can get a Sandisk class 10 64 GB which just only 2 months ago I paid RM 300 ( than considered a good price ). The 64 GB Class 6 when launch early this year was RM 500 !!
Moral of story - be happy with your price as it will still goes down over the next few months

uncle benny.. so far do you get taxed for importing phone accessory from US?
*
View the link at post #4 : it is fixed

NEVER - no tax and duties for all such mobile accessories. Even for mobile phones I bought from Clove UK , officially there is no duties and sales tax. The most if hold by custom just need pay RM 100 as SIRIM permit but even that I escaped from paying . Packaged was delivered directly to me by DHL - really a door to door delivery

I have resgistered a 3GB plan with Maxis with this phone. I don't to exceed and get charged.
I am new to GB and smartphones, can anyone please teach me how to check from my phone on data used and available in a simple manner ?

Is it more advisable to do downloading of software when I am in a free wi-fi spot so that my own data is not utilised ?

TQ advance.

wanna ask.

i got sandisk 32g class 10.
when i transfer from lappy to phone. 800mb video take about 20minutes.
but why when transferring between internal sd to external sd
1.3gb of video only take 3-4 minutes.

is my micro sd normal or problem?
or my laptop usb port is super old outdated?
*
A 800mb file just takes me 1.min plus transfer from my pc using wireless thro wifi file explorer app
How can it be so slow through cable
Even on phone itself internal to external sd will not take even 3-4 min. 1.min only

really?
so thats mean its the card problem.
even with wifi file explorer pro, the transfer is like hell slow  doh.gif

Looks more like poor sdcard quality. Even through wifi file explorer app a 2gb movie file transfer under 2 min to phone external sdcard. 20 mins is ridiculous

my 32gb ultra microsd scandisk class 10 got 19MB/s read and 11MB/s write.

i've read allot of people getting 19 max too.. as oppose to 30MB/s claimed.. think its got to do with the external card reader.. anyone knows why? for me i'm good at 19MB/s.. hahaha.
*
30 mb/s is theoretical speed only. Just like your car specs say max speed 200 km/hour but in practice maintain at 150 km/hour is already stressing the engine n you will not hit 200 unless prepare for engine seizure
