One popular issue regarding WIFI on S3. The most common "Fix" right now is something that was learned from XDA developers:
1. Go to your phone dialer 2. Dial *#0011# 3. When you see the "ServiceMode" screen, press the left menu button 4. Select "WiFi" 5. See that "Wifi Power Save Mode" button that is "ON" - well turn it "OFF" 6. Exit this menu, turn off your Wifi and turn it back on. If you already entered all your wifi credentials, forget your network info (remove it) and re-enter it again."

QUOTE(lsndroid @ Jul 4 2012, 02:53 PM) Fully agreed~ Out of S3 topic, well, here's a video on how Android is rather more practical compared to iOS... Check this video out, The Truth... Watching all these 5 or 6 parts made me subscribed to the guy's channel~ Damn I'm proud being as an Android user~ Correction: Forgot to attach link~ Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMiY1kSTHZw&feature=plcpThere's total of 5 parts yea... Sometimes i really feel like wanna share this link to iOS user but worried about offending them or put them raging back at me...  Before epal comes in with their ipong, the market is fighting very fair. Nokia, Samsung, Motorola, SE no issues at all. now ipong comes in, sue here sue there, ban ppl from selling. the mobile market all dirosakkan.

QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Jul 4 2012, 02:28 PM) I don't own any tab yet, always want to get one, but every time seen the UI smoothness, I just can't accept it, too lagging. This Nexus 7 is the only I find smooth and consider the only workable tab for me.  Maybe I wait for Nexus 10, or wait others JB 4.1 tab.  QUOTE(Andrewtst @ Jul 4 2012, 02:41 PM) iPhone is the only phone never in my list.
- No freedom using iPhone
- Boring interface
- Troublesome, basic function like bluetooth data also can't.
- Anything also need that stupid iTunes. Not so portable as you need PC for doing anything.
- No much control on how you want the apps to function.
- Small screen, only 3.5 inch, too tiny for browsing experience.
- Too dumb.

hey guyz,
not sure if someone asked this before. When I dial into a conference number, I have to dial the passcode as well. This is where I bring up the keypad. The problem is, I have no sound from the keypad.
When dialing a new fresh number using the kaypad, you can here the default sound no problem. Only once you are in a conference bridge and you want to enter the passcode. No sound from keypad. Anyone know if there is a way to enable the sound? The keypad work no problem, just that with some sound will be nice to hear.

Guys, this might be a stupid question.
But is GO Ex Launcher good? Will I still be able to use features like the S Voice if I use the GO Launcher?
Thanks.
