S3 Hall Of Dropper (drop their phone on the floor survivors):

Dropped my phone from waist height onto ceramic tile floor today cry.gif
Luckily nothing happened except a tiny scratch on my casing cry.gif
(glossy hard plastic casing)

QUOTE(eddydo @ Jul 20 2012, 07:29 PM)
Drop my phone today too, was sitting on the chair and the phone lying on my lap, then I turned my body, bang! Screen down drop first, flip case was open, so far nothing happened :l, rock flip case,

QUOTE(Eiraku @ Jul 18 2012, 04:38 PM)
I guess my rock case is enough for normal drops. I've thrown my phone onto the mattress only to have it bounce up and drop hard against the floor and wall a few times edi... shocking.gif

QUOTE(Silver Isle)
Ouch. My baby S3 had its first drop today from waist height, screen DOWN, with only ROCK Quicksand casing and Nillkin SP on. My heart broke into thousand pieces and I didn't dare to pick it up for a moment (was thinking, damn, cracked screen, damn, RM600, damn, should've bought the Melkco flip leather casing earlier, damn it's not gonna be the same anymore). But phew, thankfully x9999999999, not a single scratch observed so far...

XeactorZ - dropped his S3 so hard he was shocked till memory loss of when he dropped it

Any benefit to using the C-Pen? For Galaxy Note can thicker and thinner the line based on pressure, something which finger users cannot replicate.

the thicker/thinner one i dun think even C pen can do. u gotta understand how the S Pen works, it actually has a pressure point using WACOM technology inside the pen.

The C pen what i wanna know is is it just a capacitive pen, or is there actually anything special

PS: how is it that paper clip works? are u saying S3 is not just capacitive but pressure sensitive screen?

No Otterbox becoz the silly-cone stretches BAD - it's well worth the protection it if you don't pull it out of the case often and don't mind the lint and dust that silly-cone attracts. CaseMate Tough is another good bet.

I have the Tech21 Impact Mesh and SGP Neo Hybrid on order though. Will quick review as soon as they arrive.

i think the C-Pen is just a capacitive pen. the only reason why i will work on S3 with the thinner tip is mayb that reduced the minimal contact required on the capacitive screen of the S3, the C-Pen works on the s2 as well from a video i watched when it is pressed down hard enough to flatten the tip of the C-Pen tip for larger area....

Support your developers. An app or game costs about the costs of RM 3 to RM10. About a starbucks drink. Surely after buying a 1.8k phone u can afford to support the developers. If you dont support them, they cant make a living, they cant make a living, they change job stop developing. Then no more cool updates and no new developers will wanna make new stuff for u.

Just like supporting the environment, every little bit counts

i dun think a NAND backup can work across devices which have different storage inbuilt. u may screw something up. u CAN however use Titanium back up, backup your stuff, transfer backup to new device, install titanium on new device and restore

Ya, mine also, as that one is chairfire version, the touch version is not chairfire version.

I don't care that as I never use that .apk version, I always reboot to CWM and use from there.

Support your developers. An app or game costs about the costs of RM 3 to RM10. About a starbucks drink. Surely after buying a 1.8k phone u can afford to support the developers. If you dont support them, they cant make a living, they cant make a living, they change job stop developing. Then no more cool updates and no new developers will wanna make new stuff for u.

Just like supporting the environment, every little bit counts

Really.

But heck, Malaysians in general don't think far beyond the present lol. Free now is all that counts.

Plus phone sellers "pamper" them with "free software" (sic) all the time when they buy phones. You think things are gonna change any time soon?

Software as something "worth" paying for is a relatively alien concept for Malaysians it seems.

Free tag app is free before/after root.

Support the developer, the paid app is few ringgit only, you can buy expensive phone but can't buy such app?

If really can't, then don't use, use only free app.

lol go easy on that guy.. he simply doesn't know how Android works. Iphone apps require you to pay while they are free on Android. like Angry birds. so you basically get more free apps on the android market without Rooting your phone. go grab Dead Trigger for free now.

Apps that u think you like and u can afford you pay for them.

What he thinks iOS = jailbreak = Cydia = Instalxxxxx or installation of .ipa
Android = root = cydia-related-stuff = Cra_ked stuff or installation of .apk

He thinks that Android is = iOS, this kind of person can go back and use iPhone...

i played the PC version and it was awesome. Just wanted to check with the other forumers if the game is as good on the S3. Just try to pick a team that you like and start managing. Buy and sell players, train your players etc. Basically you're the boss!!!!

I came from the ORIGINAL Glas so IDK that lol.

The Xgear Spectre Glass protectors are coloured though - white and blue.

Shame if they ever came up with the S3 Glas T, I'm gonna have to stick an Optics (or something) on top just to get rid of the glossiness lol. Talk about Overkill.

But no luck. First purchase process, payment declined (got notification email at 12:36).

A minute after, got "thank you" mail from googleplay. (12:37)

So, the purchase was succeed or not? Or still pending?

I bought it for the $0.99. I think in general, buying an app and later on it goes for sale/free is quite common... it's like buying the latest edition of Nike shoes and when the new ones roll out, the old ones will be off for discount. Of course for DT, it was too quick a change... but meh

Don't worry.. reminds me the time I bought my SII when it first came out... RM2099 hard cash.

Then... suddenly price drops to RM1899 and then a sea of people holding it. Literally everyone had it...

Same with the SIII now... bought it like a few weeks ago, then POOF** now 1 fella in school having one also... another teacher ordered it. 2 more teachers looking forward to buy it.

I feel you bro. I feel you.

Same case over here regarding the S2. Paid launch price, then POOF.

Thankfully, right now most of the guys over here seem really satisfied with their S2s, Notes and Nexuses. So I guess I have another half-year of being "cutting edge" (lol).

It helps that - to non-nerds - there's actually really little to be "wowed" over with the S3 vs the S2/Note. Quad-core? Pfft. Dual core enough edi. HD screen? Pfft. Note got asso, bigger wan summore.

ICS. S2, Note got.
8MP cam. S2, Note got.
1GB RAM. S2, Note got.

Even if the S3 gets cheaper, the S2 and Note will get cheaper still and people (aka the "general, sensible public") will buy that.

Like me, I upgraded for the Wolfson DAC lol. I doubt normal people would be that crazy liberal with their finances UNLESS they are a habitual upgrader - which there's actually a lot of out there - or like me, they have a specific niggle with the S2/Note/Nexus that FORCES them to upgrade.

@ZeneticX: You have to repackage manually from Wanamlite ROM, IINM there's no CWM zip for JUST the kernel. Not that I've seen.

But yeah the "Wanam" kernel is effing smooth. It's like butter through FPSE when Siyah would just stutter. And battery life ain't bad at all.

I miss the audio tweaks of Siyah but, heck, I like me butter more.

I think you misunderstood... they're all teachers. Not students. hehehe.

But still, what you said is true. Kids these days holding iPhones and iPads like nobody's business. I think kids are more into those iPhones and iPads thanks to all the skins and covers available for them which makes them seem trendier.

I too will not indulge my kids to such fancy. Even if I'm doing it for myself. icon_rolleyes.gif

Buy flagship smartphones at launch price. 2 years in a row.

Yes we are indulgent indeed for what we do lol... brows.gif

Such is the curse of the gadget-head... cry.gif

Actually hor, a considerable number of my students over here are QUITE into Android and modding. Which is interesting, seeing them dwelve into XDA to find ways to root and new custom ROMs for their Aces, Ys and Ws.

And we're talking Kuala Lipis here. Which is relatively ulu you know.

The SII was like the sensational phone of the past year. I don't think no other phone came close to it. Which is why it's still relevant even now to A LOT of people. In fact, most phones like HTC EVO 4G and the LG Optimus 4X really do square of very decently now with the SIII. Too minute a difference compared to the SII vs HTC Sensation vs LG Optimus... but to us...

... SIII? drool.gif drool.gif Bring it on

Kinda disappointed with the Dungeon Hunter 3 update. Almost 1GB update from the Play Store then another 997MB of data to download after launching the game...

That is true. I'm even more disappointed with it now. Gameloft needs to get its act together.

Now looking for DH2 is difficult.

I feel you bro. I feel you.

Same case over here regarding the S2. Paid launch price, then POOF.

Thankfully, right now most of the guys over here seem really satisfied with their S2s, Notes and Nexuses. So I guess I have another half-year of being "cutting edge" (lol).

It helps that - to non-nerds - there's actually really little to be "wowed" over with the S3 vs the S2/Note. Quad-core? Pfft. Dual core enough edi. HD screen? Pfft. Note got asso, bigger wan summore.

ICS. S2, Note got.
8MP cam. S2, Note got.
1GB RAM. S2, Note got.

Even if the S3 gets cheaper, the S2 and Note will get cheaper still and people (aka the "general, sensible public") will buy that.

Like me, I upgraded for the Wolfson DAC lol. I doubt normal people would be that crazy liberal with their finances UNLESS they are a habitual upgrader - which there's actually a lot of out there - or like me, they have a specific niggle with the S2/Note/Nexus that FORCES them to upgrade.

@ZeneticX: You have to repackage manually from Wanamlite ROM, IINM there's no CWM zip for JUST the kernel. Not that I've seen.

But yeah the "Wanam" kernel is effing smooth. It's like butter through FPSE when Siyah would just stutter. And battery life ain't bad at all.

I miss the audio tweaks of Siyah but, heck, I like me butter more.

same here
bt i might go back to siyah
the sound did improve abit

i got the s3 cuz of the wolfson dac

not so sure..I remember reading consumable items like casing and buttons are not covered by warranty..anyway its worth asking samsung service center for button replacement..

best of luck bro..FYI got my LCD replacement less than a day ~ think 4-5 hrs (mayb KK service center less crowded compares to KL)

Profiles? Tasker. Accept nothing less.

It's a biatch to learn though. But it does very well as a Profiles + Scheduler + Juice Defender app. In a way, the one app to rule them all.

2 months after that, lose iDevice.

Buy Android. Buy more apps (albeit at a less frantic pace).

google music/currents/books are regional. US only...hopefully by the time JB rolls out, it'll be for everyone

Well other than google music, the stuff you mentioned have become available in a number of first world countries like Australia,UK, Canada, France etc. I can install and use them right now without any modifications to my system XP

Problem with bringing them into Malaysia and even outside of the US into other first world countries is mainly licensing issues. I doubt you'll see them in Malaysia in the very near future.

That's the thing.

I can see stuff fine (with VPN and Market Enabler of course), but I can't buy em, particularly music. Maybe I should get a US credit card, a virtual one perhaps.

Should we change some information on the first page?
1. Remove the how to get flipboard.... It's live now, no longer beta.
2. The turn off wifi power saving mode, it's the same as wifi > advanced > keep wifi on during sleep? I can't access it via *#0011# liao...
3. Mount sdcard/phone as external drive. I just connect my phone and walla.... No extra settings needed.
4. The 'move Gameloft data to card' ... Should put down note, that 64g cards formatted in exFat. Not supported.

Don't bomb me if I am wrong, I just trying to help smile.gif

If you haven't done anything to your phone, you are not mounting your phone as a mass storage device. The storage is not being dismounted from the phone and mounted on the computer, you are simply using MTP to transfer files. ^^

I bought mine from eBay malaysia website because it was about RM16 cheaper compared to SGP website.
But apparently it was a pricing mistake, so after 3 days they changed the price to be the same as SGP website biggrin.gif

wow the s3 thread has reach v15... i did post this question in the earlier threads i think in v3 when i just got my phone but have since not been up to date with the threads.

just wondering is it possible to run the phone on edge only instead of 3g. For example jailbroken iphone users are able to on edge and off 3g using the bossprefs app. i wan to be able to do this as the 3g is really draining the battery of the phone. at v15 and about 2 months of the phone being in the market has anyone have any unrooted solution to this?

thanks for your time..

Well, my friend. After 2 years, 1 OS Update and only god knows how many thread versions, an S2 can't do this either without going into settings.

Rooted or otherwise. IINM lah.

It'll be geng if I can simply tell my tasker to switch to EDGE while screen is off.

BUT, if my previous experiences with EDGE in Malaysia holds true, you will DEFINITELY drop calls if an EDGE data connection is active when somebody is calling you.

I had that issue with my old N900 AND my old iPhone 4. Has to do with the data switching implementation of EDGE locally (at least with Celcom) - it gives more priority to data over voice. Not ALL the time, but MOST of the time.

The S3 does this too to my experience. Active EDGE connection --> incoming calls get sent straight to voicemail.

PLUS EDGE gives my shittily shielded speakers the dreaded TENET TENET TENET sound, which pisses the hell out of me.

SOOOOOO, to answer your question, no. There hasn't been an easy way to toggle 3G/EDGE since GingerBread IINM, for any Android device.

Instead, get Juice Defender or Green Power and get power savings sans dropped calls. You will still get periodic data polling too, so your emails and whatsapps will come in (albeit somewhat slower).

Hey guys. How many gb of data monthly is sufficient for the s3? Was using the n8 previously and I use only about 600mb per month of data. Was thinking of umobile's u28 package, but not sure if the s3 being a better phone would tend to load higher quality images and render higher quality videos and so use more data. What do you think?

hm.... do u feel 16gb is enough ? from what i understand the 16gb model can also already use the expand storage slot for an extra 32gb so this is more then enough isn't it ?

Also my media files is going to be located on my 2 qnaps at home with 12tb + storage space which i should be able to stream wirelessly over the internet to watch :/


Any other specs being changed in the upcoming newer s3 model ? cpu dualcore or quadcore ? 1 or 2gb ram ? etc ?



Speaking of which, i understand that malaysia only currently supports hspa, but does the phone have the lte4g feature in it for future proofing, or not ? Because according to wiki, some variants of the s3 had omitted this feature hmm.gif

anyway people hoping wait for the samsung note 2, may be disappointed to know that it will come with ice cream sandwitch instead of the newer jelly bean.

http://www.techradar.com/news/phone-and-co...eatures-1089295


so better cpu, camera, bigger display size are almost to be expected. possibly even differen storage space and ram size. but software wise, i seriously doubt it will be any better than the galaxy s3 out already.

i'm not saying note 2 won't be superior hardware wise, it most likely will, but the question is in terms of value for money bang for bucks, s3 may be more worth it i suspect (well need to wait for the price anouncement in august 2012 to be sure).

but i don't think people would be disappointed getting an S3 now :/ unless they really want a bigger screen size or slightly better camera e.g. 12mp vs 8mp

Meanwhile The Verge has gained some information from sources regarding the Galaxy S3 and the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update that was announced yesterday by Google. It is being claimed that last minute adjustments were made to the handsets specs in some markets to “future-proof” the handset in readiness for the new operating system. Samsung’s engineers were not completely sure of the software’s hardware requirements, so decided to push up the internal RAM to 2GB to make sure.

Sources are currently unaware of Samsung’s plans for releasing Android Jelly Bean for the Galaxy S3, but considering the aging Nexus S is down to receive it the device will be more than capable of running the software.

Source:

I'm wondering whether the s3 with only 1gb of ram will be sufficient to use the jelly bean :/ when samsung officially releases the update for the s3 if ever.

but one thing for sure, doesn't seem like s2 may be able to use it :/ apparently.

Some launchers have widgets for it. Like go launcher. However, you need to be using those launchers in order for those widgets to work. Which is a bummer for me cause I don't like the candy pop feeling of go launcher

The Galaxy Nexus does Jelly Bean fine. And how much RAM does it have? 1GB last I checked.

Plus, your S2 info is outdated. A week back SamMobile has news that Sammy ALREADY has S2 and S3 JB builds in testing, and is planning to release in a couple of months.

Trust me, if I know Sammy, "a couple of months" is gonna "mysteriously" coincide with the announcement of the new iPhone.

The Galaxy Nexus does Jelly Bean fine. And how much RAM does it have?

well thats good to hear for the s2 users :] personally though, i'm getting S3 so less risk there cool.gif

may i know though, is this OS upgrade via firmware a recent new thing ? Or has the smartphone market been doing this a while ? Or does it always end having to purchase a new phone to get the newer OS ?

Because my plan for an S3 is to be future proofed, so i can upgrade the os when updates for android roll out over time.

granted that there will be stuff i am sure it isn't able to do due to lack of hardware needed, but i think it's almost got everything, although i'm a bit worried about whether the malaysia 1gb ram is sufficient for future proofing hmm.gif the quad core cpu is pretty decent so not too worried about that sweat.gif


Added on July 25, 2012, 8:50 amBy the way guys/girls i found a very hilarious clip when asking the samsung and iphone, which is the best smartphone laugh.gif

You're worrying too much about the future, IMHO. Phones are obsolete the moment they get to your hands lol. As a rule of thumb, the S3, or any modern pieces of mobile tech is good for 2 years. Any more and it gets HOPELESSLY left behind.

But future proofing wise, the S3 should be okay up to Key Lime Pie (the next update after JB). Anything after that would be a stretch, as per the two year limit. At least OFFICIALLY.

Unofficially, even the relatively old Nexus One should get JB, thanks to enterprising custom ROM builders.

And the current mobile OS update craze? Google and Apple started it lol. Which is actually a good thing - during the Symbian/WM days of old, a new OS usually meant having to buy new phones to come with it.

oh alrite :{

but one last thing though, since amoled has degradable organic component how long is the expect life time on that ?

QUOTE
AMOLED life expectancy
One of the chief issues with AMOLED displays is the lifetime. Although much has been achieved to improve the displays, the first ones to be introduced commercially only had lifetimes of around 15 000 hours.
Figures of this order are quite acceptable for mobile phones which are replaced fairly regularly and the display may only be on for relatively short periods, but for televisions or computer monitors that have much higher usage rates, the half life becomes an issue.

http://www.radio-electronics.com/info/data...rix-organic.php


so although samsung s3 is better than the htc one x in terms of having a replacable battery (curious why htc didn't opt for this), but the samsung is also has an expiry on it's display which obviously is not going to be replacable either.

If the phone can physically last 5 years, i think that is a winner already smile.gif

speaking of which, microsoft are paying the price in market share by looking down on the potential of android.

QUOTE
By November, Samsung Electronics Co., Motorola and LG all signed on to Google's "open handset alliance," a consortium of more than 30 hardware makers, carriers and application companies that said they would help build Android devices.

When asked for his reaction to the alliance, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer nearly cracked up laughing during a press conference in Tokyo. "We have many, many millions of customers," he said. "They're welcome in our world." (Microsoft now has a very small market share in smartphone operating systems.)

With heavy use (and by heavy I mean 12 hours of ACTIVE USE per day average), the OLED on my old S2 started showing low level burn-in symptoms after 1 year. I sold it off already, but if I extrapolate that, the SuperAMOLED+ screen should be "dead" by 2-3 years of "heavy" use or 4-5 years of "normal" (5-6 hours a day) use.

Which is on par with the manufacturer estimation.

The S2 SuperAMOLED+ is full RGB, which means it would theoretically DIE FASTER compared to a SuperAMOLED(no plus)HD Pentile screens of similar size and density.

So taking that into account (and minus-ing the fact that we have denser, bigger screens) the S3 screen should last AS long (or maybe slightly longer) then it's predecessor, say 4-5 years of "normal" use.

Granted, it would start yellowing noticeably after the first 2-3 years (due to blue OLED death), but like I said, the estimated "obsolescence" of a modern mobile is around 2 years anyway, so it's fine all things considered.

And who says the screens ain't replaceable? 500 gets you a new screen now, It should be relatively cheaper in the future.

Personally I'm more concerned with the totally "plastic" bodies of the current crop of modern mobiles lol.

Alas, we're already too far into the disposable age anyway. You can't expect too much from anything these days.

also the s3 has a very nifty feature that can detect if your present, so it will omitt the setting to auto turn off display and go into standby. It's very practical, and you increase the efficiency and life expectancy of your amoled display usage with zero annoyance of finding the phone in standby when your still using it.

I totally agree with you, however in the end, can they deliver an aluminium body at the same price ? (which i seriously doubt).

In the sense that i rather have lots of good quality features with an ok phone exterior build, vs having a nice exterior, but crappy software features, i will always choose the former doh.gif but if there was a third option to offer best of both worlds but at a costlier price, i'd choose the former because you get the bang for your bucks.

i've till now used a nokia phone, so i'm very used to these plastiky builds, but that wasn't what annoyed me most about my nokia. it was mostly the lack of features in terms of software and hardware capability which made me hate that phone.

in 2012, lots of these laptops have a front side aluminium cover which makes typing on the laptop nice and cool, and yet they are still very affordable to own. but i'm skeptical whether the smartphone market will be able to offer the same thing at also a reasonable price hmm.gif

not to mention the design. the htc one x, has a nice aesthetic look, but without a replacable battery, seems a bit inpractical.

Though Smart Stay is nifty, it's not perfect. It likes to screw me over at night and close the display when I DON'T want it to lol.

On a sidenote, most ICS browsers now have "inverted greyscale rendering mode" (aka night mode) built in, which helps to save battery as well (as most websites are light in colour).

Can they? Ooooh, they sure can make aluminium unibody phones at the same price. But profits will be slim, and who wants that?

Plus UNIBODY ALUMINIUM phones will wreck havoc on waves, hence the iPhone's Antennagate (the signal attenuation part, which, to a lesser degree, the metal bodied Nokia E71/72 also suffered from).

Hi there, I am newbies here.

I foundout the Alarm Briefing is awesome, but I am having some problems with the news briefing... can any sifu help me out here?

I set my alarm type to briefing content, and tick all 3 options "Weather" "Today's schedule", "News".

Attached Image

When the alarm sound, I will brief the weather and my schedule, but the "News" part, I only reads out the title.

I can see there's a Yahoo sign on top right and The Malaysian Insider on bottom, does anyone sifu how to modify the "News" briefing function and provider?

Hi,

Samsung Galaxy S3 is my first Android phone after using the iPhone3,3G and 4 for the last 3 years. I must say I like it better here thumbup.gif . There is a hack that I am missing alot that is available in Cydia call Actions Menu that extend the Copy/Paste/Select function to include Favorite. This function comes in very handy for SMS/WhatsAPP like phone number, address, bank account etc. Any suggestion.

Wholeheartedly agreed. Everything else feels like a toy next to flagship Nokias, the crappy N97 included.

A shame they had to go the Balmer way.

@Jackdon: Try "Clipper" from Play. Not 100% as convenient but close enough. Also you can setup "autotext" in certain Keyboards (like Smart Keyboard Pro), I use it the same way.

He's actually talking about a cydia hack that extends the copy paste bubbles to include extra commands. We don't have anything similar (and why the heck not, we're an open OS right?) but Clipper is close.

I just keep a quick shortcut to my favourite notepad app in notifications for extended copypasta purposes + autotext shortcuts in Smart Keyboard.

Hmm.. that is not what I want to do, let say I am in an SMS an I want to insert my home address. In Action Menu I long tab just like edit and then the Select/Cut/Copy/Favorite menu comes out. Note the favorite part. I select Favorite menu I get a list of my pre define phrase. Not go to the other page select/copy then paste.

Check my replies. Clipper man, clipper! Works the same way, but it hides in your notifications. Slide down, select Clipper -> clippings (your pre defined stuff), go back, paste done.

@alanliao: 1st, can you even surf the web? 2nd, unsecessful first time, go take another password and try again.

Weird. You should be fine with the settings I gave you. UNLESS.

1) You're running AdFree or AdAway (in which case you need to whitelist certain servers).

2) You're running a custom ROM with the VPN bits removed.

Otherwise I'm stumped.

Oh, the IP doesn't mean much.

Meaning you want to insert something which already in your pre-defined Fav text/note into, like, SMS and then send it?

i think when you compose SMS, you can Menu > Insert Text.

you can select Text Template, which can be added/edited via SMS
you can select SMemo, again, via SMemo...

i have not tried any of these yet.

Hi,

Samsung Galaxy S3 is my first Android phone after using the iPhone3,3G and 4 for the last 3 years. I must say I like it better here  thumbup.gif . There is a hack that I am missing alot that is available in Cydia call Actions Menu that extend the Copy/Paste/Select function to include Favorite. This function comes in very handy for SMS/WhatsAPP like phone number, address, bank account etc. Any suggestion.

swiftkey does that in a way. for example you just type once your email address say "hantu.raya@gmail.com". the subsequent times u just need to type "ha" and choose the email address. so its three letters to type to get the whole email address. works for other favourite words too.

since i will be using maxis .... can somebody guide me how to disable the internet from the s3 from accessing via maxis, and instead connect to the internet via my linksys e4200 wireless n router that uses tmnut unifi 10mbps instead ?

any tips on how to do this ? so i can avoid that my internet usage just up my 30 ringgit prepaid monthly budget >->;

Though Smart Stay is nifty, it's not perfect. It likes to screw me over at night and close the display when I DON'T want it to lol.

On a sidenote, most ICS browsers now have "inverted greyscale rendering mode" (aka night mode) built in, which helps to save battery as well (as most websites are light in colour).
Can they? Ooooh, they sure can make aluminium unibody phones at the same price. But profits will be slim, and who wants that?
i notice in the reviews, the s3 also has some dim light feature hmm.gif not sure whether it auto does this in the night as well though.

By default your phone will auto use your wireless instead of your maxis 3G
OR You can disable the 3G - just hold down power button and select network data deactivate - if you want to play safe

Ah... as much as we love unibody builds(I practically drooled over the N9 when it first came out and I held it so carefully in my hand; and those Lumias 800/900)... I think it'll be a bomb. I wouldn't want it to be aluminium or metal though cause the waves would be killa~ but the polycarb on the nokia devices.. still, I would say Nokia still makes the BEST hardware of all.

Doubt about it, one of the reason Nokia fail long time ago as Nokia put in crappy hardware after the end of N95. Nokia simply use all old hardware spec during beginning of Symbian Touch OS.

just to share with others in regards to the status of the variants of the samsung galaxy sIII situation hmm.gif

QUOTE
Each summer the world celebrates a time of warmth, fun and relaxation. For the tech community, however, it's traditionally the season in which Samsung unleashes the latest version of its Galaxy S flagship.

But the now time-honored tradition is actually more of a one-two punch: first the unlocked international model is revealed, and later it's followed up by a litany of worldwide variants.

US carriers intent on offering the "value" of differentiation to their customers have been the worst offenders in modifying Sammy's magic formula, ranging from motley form factors to egregious bloatware to clumsy naming schemes (Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch quickly comes to mind).

But Samsung's brand cachet has grown year over year, so much so that the company is starting to wield more power over carriers. No weird names, no exclusive agreements and no changes to the form factor.

That's right, six carriers have signed up to carry the Galaxy S III so far, and every single one of these devices looks exactly the way Samsung intended, with the only major exceptions being the processor and memory allotment.


So far we've had the opportunity to play with two of the six: AT&T's and Sprint's. How close to the original GS III (also known as the GT-I9300) do these devices come? What advantages and disadvantages does each bring to the table?

Can you expect comparable performance? Stay with us as we break it all down.

Source:
http://www.engadget.com/2012/06/20/samsung...andt-vs-sprint/


I would like to see more reviews like this, especially from the LYN community, seeing as in the near future, there will be a new incoming S3 variant coming doh.gif

i'm not against variants of the S3, but only if these changes give better hardware specs, and also making them available in our local markets, and also being easier to differentiate which one we are getting.

The malaysian market has the international model aka the GT-I9300 i believe.

don't think the global model will be affected by this...

the ones who should worry are those in the US, where different providers got diff models

well based on the s3 international we got, the pros and cons are as follows.



malaysia international s3

pro:
- has quad core cpu (Samsung Exynos 4 Quad @ 1.4 GHz)
- has more storage space support options. 16 / 32 / 64 GB NAND, microSD


con:
- only has 1 GB ram
- HSPA+ 21.1 (Intel XMM6262). meaning that the LTE 4g feature is missing. however considering Malaysia only support hspa to begin with, so it's not like your losing anything based on the current situation, but i consider this a con in regards to future proofing, because when malaysia does have 4g, your device won't have the hardware to support it hmm.gif interesting to note that HSPA+ is capped at 21 Mbit/s network speed, whereas LTE 4g is maxed out at 100 Mbit/s. To put things into perspective, malaysia's unifi 10 mbps = 1.2 Mbit/s, and the unifi 20 mbps is 2.4 Mbit/s. if your interested to know more about hspa + vs lte 4g, then this article over at engadget does a really good job explaining it.


other variants

pro:
- most non international variants have the LTE 4g. the benefits of this is as explained above. however another lyn member did mention that even if your device does have lte 4g, and malaysia does in the future provide 4g, it may not necessarily work because of incompatible hardware. so more research needs to be done in that regard.


cons:
- fewer storage space options. 16 / 32 GB NAND, microSD
- has a dual core cpu ( Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 MSM8960 @ 1.5 GHz). you will need to check the reviews online comparing the cpu benchmark, but i would think that quad core cpu makes processing 1080p/720p much more efficient and better.


there are also physical differences in terms of features such as the screenshot below, but i'm not going to get into that, but if your interested to read more then go to this at&t vs sprint engadget comparison review. The malaysia S3 should look like the one on the right i believe brows.gif
user posted image



another thing is the google wallet only found in either the sprint variant, or an unlocked international s3 that is rooted.
http://blog.tekkidd.com/2012/07/howto-inst...xy-s3-sgh-i747/



If i had to say which variant is the best, i would probably say the south korean SHV-E210K/L/S assuming that the 4g lte would work in malaysia in the future. the only difference between the malaysian and sk version other than the lte 4g, is also that the sk has 2gb vs the malaysian 1gb ram.

however i don't know the price difference between the 2 hmm.gif and that + availability is really what the consumer is going to be looking at seeing the difference between the sk and malaysia version is almost trivial ;x

different people different opinion
so choose the custom rom that suit you most

most popular custom rom by user here are , cm 9/10, wanamlite, omega and checkrom
*
Why use custom roms ?
Stock Samsung Galaxy S III kernel is good. However, using tweaked and optimised custom kernel for Samsung Galaxy S3 is better. It improves overall performance and has lot of features that can’t be found on stock kernel.

For example, root access, insecure adb, custom boot animation support, overclocking, undervolting voltage control, multiple tweaked CPU governors, GPU overclocking, I/O tweaks, automatic backup of EFS partition, NTFS USB driver support and other more… So here are the top best custom kernels for Samsung Galaxy S3 that you can try.


popular roms as pointed out by xeactorZ

as i suspected some features from the original stock firmware are gone

Cynogenmod 10


the cm10 uses the bare minimum of the latest jelly bean, and that is awesome.

However the one thing i hated was losing lots of the awesome features from stock like smart touch, like putting phone down etc ....

also i don't think the digital camera had that nice multi shot, and select the best one to keep.


so my question is, which rom updates to jelly bean, can install/remove apps/bloatware, and has very minimal lost of features (especially the awesome ones) hmm.gif ?

No.. there is none.. the camera features and other features requires the TW framework to work.

unless samsung comes out with their jelly bean ROM, then other developers can develop on top of it.

CM10 is different bcz they work with the original JB source.. so many features of TW they are not able to add in..

actually i found some info regarding what i need

QUOTE
Want the AOSP Feel While Retaining TouchWiz Features on the US Galaxy S III?
When it comes to which ROM to use, some users can be very specific. Some enjoy the feel of a pure Google experience, and are more than willing to give up the OEM-specific features of their device to get them. Others, however, enjoy native features that come stock and would only like the AOSP look-and-feel in certain areas. In many cases, it’s hard to find the best of both worlds—especially on devices like the US Galaxy S III, which features many innovative gestures and inbuilt features.

Thankfully, XDA Forum Member AndroidFan4 has comprised a list of TouchWiz apps that can be swapped for their AOSP counterparts without issue. Combined with the numerous AOSP-style launchers available in Google Play, and you can piece together the perfect ROM for your tastes, while retaining the features native to the US Galaxy S III. There are a few issues with some of the applications, though. For instance, without the TouchWiz Gallery, the camera application will force close when attempting to view a preview, thus requiring users to open the AOSP gallery manually to view recently taken pictures.

Head over to the original thread to learn more.

This is exactly the thing i need, a balance between adding onto the phone with jelly bean goodness, while retaining the good things about the stock nod.gif

If you flash CM10, you lose everything, if you wait for the official JB to roll out for SIII, and then wait for the likes of CR and wanam to get it to custom, and everything remains

also what is your recommendation for a custom rom for the s3 ?


from what i've seen so far ...

cm10 - has the latest jelly bean, and uses 100% jelly bean features. cons however is missing lots of stock samsung features especially like gestures from the touchwiz 5. is a preview rom, as not all features have been fixed for a stable release just yet.

cm9 - has access to touchwiz 5 features ? and stable.

WanamLite - features seem to be good, and they did remove bloatware which is awesome. not quite sure if they retained the stock goodness of the s3 though hmm.gif

if the custom ROM is developed based on stock ROM, then it will retain most of the features. only apps are removed, but are also easily installed back via .zip files.

CM10 is far from perfect. it's only a PREVIEW as they mention. nth to shout about it yet.

CM9 is good for other phones, but i don't really see the need of it for S3 cz the stock ROM itself is great.
further tweaks of stock ROM like the CheckROM and Wanam is better.
Omega has a lot of mods, don't really fit my taste. I'm currently using CheckROM.

oh i didn't know this. thx for the info  notworthy.gif
By the way i've been looking at other mods such as the wanan lite
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1705866
do you know if the WanamLite has the good features from the samsung stock, e.g. like gestures ?
also what is your recommendation for a custom rom for the s3 ?
from what i've seen so far ...

cm10 - has the latest jelly bean, and uses 100% jelly bean features. cons however is missing lots of stock samsung features especially like gestures from the touchwiz 5. is  a preview rom, as not all features have been fixed for a stable release just yet.

cm9 - has access to touchwiz 5 features ? and stable.

WanamLite - features seem to be good, and they did remove bloatware which is awesome. not quite sure if they retained the stock goodness of the s3 though  hmm.gif
*
WanamLite nicely tweak, it change the Status Bar to 15 toggles and remove some Samsung Bloatware and also add-in 4 way reboot options and nice kernel tweak.

The GOOD is you can use back Stock Status Bar & install back all Samsung Bloatware, which means it can 100% same like Stock with better smoothness UI and functionality.

WanamLite is the well build ROM, I highly recommended. smile.gif

if the custom ROM is developed based on stock ROM, then it will retain most of the features. only apps are removed, but are also easily installed back via .zip files.

CM10 is far from perfect. it's only a PREVIEW as they mention. nth to shout about it yet.

CM9 is good for other phones, but i don't really see the need of it for S3 cz the stock ROM itself is great.
further tweaks of stock ROM like the CheckROM and Wanam is better.
Omega has a lot of mods, don't really fit my taste. I'm currently using CheckROM.
thx for the review. good info there :/

until cm10 becomes more stable i think i will pass on that.

leaning now more to wanam nod.gif

Everything is there, nothing is missing, except as I said before, some Samsung bloatware is removed and not using stock status bar. All can revert back as Wanam provide it as separately for flash back.

WanamLite (or CheckROM, Omega and etc) is stock modified ROM, so you get everything, it is not like CM or AOKP which not base on stock.

Hi fella S3 user, I got a questions about S3's push notification & wifi, hopefully can get info from other user here.

Just wonder why most of the time my whatsapp & viber msg are come in late / randomly? Anyone have this problem? I mean msg wasn't instantly delivered to me from sender but mostly is few minutes later after sent, especially the phone is under standby mode. It don't happen when I'm using the phone.

Get to know the late receiving because there's time stamp on the msg when received, but when I got the notification from S3, it was like few mins late or sometime longer then that.

Fyi, I have mobile plan for my line, Sync function is on all the time and I'm 101% sure whatsapp is turn on. So far beside social network apps & games, I have only Green Power Free & Advance Task killer installed on my system.

And one more question regarding on wifi, just wonder why the wifi will automatically turn on (even I switch it off under Setting & drop down menu) and connect to any nearby network that I've used before? I'm now have to manually remove all the wifi network that I've connected to before in order to disable the wifi function completely.

Hopefully can get some feedback from other user here! icon_question.gif

Many thanks in advance!

sorry could you elaborate further regarding why you don't like omega vs wanam ?

I was looking at the omega, and the front interface seems to retain the stock interface which i like, and yet gives me the option to mod the device.

I'll give that a try tonight. And any clue for the wifi auto turn on (even its has been already turn in setting) whenever I'm somewhere nearby the hotspot I've used before?

P/s: Do you guy use any power management apps? I'm just a casual user and don't really into rooting, so I was looking for some apps that I can directly grab from play store.

I know you not ask me, just give my own opinion on this 3 popular custom base stock ROM.

I use CheckROM before, end up I like more on WanamLite ROM, both kind of similar but I find out WanamLite much smoother and update regularly.

Omega ROM - too many tweak and none base on what I like. Also keep seeing here and there got people post on compatibility issue with Omega ROM. That is the two main reason I not even plan to try on it.

Reasons for rooting?
- LBE Privacy Guard - Kind of like UAC on Windows 7 but for Android permissions.
- Bye bye crapwares (looking at you, S Voice)
- Better skinning/theming
- Custom ROMs - Each ROM brings its own unique set of tweaks
- Even better performance/battery life
- NTFS Support
- Market Enabler - for Apps that are not available in SG, e.g. Google Earth (alternatively, install the .apk files manually)
- Trying leaked stuff such as Google Now, new OS e.g. Jelly bean (only available for cm10 currently)
- Full backup

any power management app will limit yr data connectivity. that's y u get late sync cz the 3G cell antenna is one of the most juice hungry component. i guess it's a trade off then if u want longer battery life.

Mobile ODIN Lite is exclusively available on XDA.  You can find the pro version on the Android Market.  Now, Mobile ODIN Pro has a few extra perks that the regular, old ODIN doesn’t have.  For example, Chainfire includes EverRoot–an option that roots your ROM as you flash it.  With that, you can also automatically flash Superuser, and Mobile ODIN itself, so you’re all ready to flash again when you reboot your new ROM.

We received a Phantip earlier this evening from a reader in Canada who’s Samsung Galaxy S3 prompted him of an update ready for his device. We now have a little more information on exactly what the update addressed. If you were fearing a dumbed down Google search app, it looks like your Spidey-sense was spot on. The 27MB over-the-air update brings the software version up to XXBLG6 and while it no doubt brings better stability, security and all that good stuff, it looks like it has removed local search from the device’s Google Search app.

From what I hear, it’s pretty easy to get back the old search app (for rooted users). But as it stands, Samsung and the Galaxy S3 are now officially safe from Apple legal action, although, I’m sure Apple lawyers are busy dissecting the device for new “infringements” as we speak.


thkfully rooted s3 retains this feature nod.gif hopefully they mean that for future mod rom updates, they can still keep the feature as well.

basically u just need to install the CWM recovery to install ROM. not necessary require root. but i think the CWM comes together with root if not mistaken. long time ago liao when i did mine. do check the xda thread.

I recommed ballistic sg case. I just bought and received yesterday from ebay. RM90+ after include postage (30+). It may a bit bulky but you will definitely feel secure when you hold your phone..^^ No more scare the phone will break once drop.

If phone not root you can only flash roms which are in tar format. Use tool odin in pc. just select rom tar file as pda n leave rest as default. select start

most custom roms required you to flash using cwm recovery mode. you must root n have cwm installed first before you can use cwm recovery mode. roms will be in zip format n if extract you will see folders such as meta system, system, data etc etc

Read Page 1 on steps how to do these

but by then u won't want the S3 you would want the S4. then u think, i will wait for another half a year for the price to drop. but by then the phone is outdated again! i will just go for s5 in that case.

argh screw it i will stick to my Black and white phone!!! mad.gif

I would dare say that till date, for Android with offline maps and voice navigation, the best would still be Papago. But if you really want a bloody good GPS, the Garmin 2465LM with MFM is the best. brows.gif

Really. Use the phone first, to it's limits. Know what you want but can't have with stock firmware.

Then Root.

As for me I already know what I need so diff story lol. Straight away root + Wanam within a few hours of buying the phone.

Rooting is not magic. It will not GIVE YOU A BETTER PHONE if YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH IT.

Similarly to jailbreaking - which is simply getting root access for iPhones. But now people automatically associate jailbreaking = piracy.

Similarly to the rooting now, people think rooting = piracy. Which makes me sad (considering you don't NEED root to steal anything, REALLY).

So Happy! Antutu Benchmark v2.9 seems fixed something that probably screw my previous benchmark result. biggrin.gif

Not sure is it because the fix of "Add verify scores by network time, avoid cheating by reduce local clock speed".

1st time my phone can reach 12k. It never been 12k for me, always 8k to 10k biggrin.gif

My phone setting:
- WanamLite v1.8 ROM
- WanamLite v1.8 Tweak Stock Kernel
- Deadline I/O Scheduler
- Pegasusq Governor
- Min 200Mhz | Max 1400Mhz clock frequency

what function is
-Deadline I/O Scheduler
- Pegasusq Governor (normally use on demand)

Anyway WanamLite the best!

If you have successfully installed the chainfire cwm file, you would have rooted and supersu is installed. There is NO need to install it separately
I strongly suggest you read some more as obviously the basics you are still unaware
DO NOT jump into the fire or you will get burn. Learn to walk first before run
The stock rom out of the box is already very good. Enjoy , explore it first. read more about root, flash before you start doing it

It's like fate lol? Or rather a sign that the 32GB shipment is incoming.

I'm finally getting used to inverted web rendering. Saves a hell lotta juice too considering I surf 80% of the time I spend with me S3.

I wanted to get used to it as well... cause I know the blacks would definitely save miles. A few issues though that I couldn't seem to get over. Which led me to turn it off

When I turn it on, it does... veryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy occasional (like in the SII) tend to invert even when I didn't press it four times. Not too biggy an issue cause it can easily be reversed.

When browsing, the ONLY thing it's worth for is reading text... which I do heavily, but another big part of me browsing the web is videos/pictures. Erm... can't deal with that inverted eh?

However, I find the battery life on the SIII to be highly improved compared to that of the SII. I had to be careful to not run out of juice when I was heavily browsing via 3G and gaming throughout the day... when I go back home after school.. .which is about 3-4 PM, I'd have to plug it in if I wanted to survive with it outside later at night.

With the SIII, I literally can run it as I did on the SII and not worry until I am back in my room post 10PM. which to me is MILESSS ahead. Only very hardcore gaming (currently trying to play back Dead Space which I had to replay from my SII) throughout the day would cause me to plug it in about 4-5 PM.

From all what you have ask. You simply too newbies.

Go play your phone as stock now, the rest just play after you familiar with it. Read more, before act.

Friend told me samsung is like that, automatic check even though off.
My other android phones dont have this issue, when 'account and sync' is off, there is no auto checking. Even play store cannot use and app updates are off.

But S3 (samsung?) still checks and allows play store to start.  icon_question.gif

QUOTE(farscope @ Jul 25 2012, 08:02 AM)
that sync option is only for your google accounts and any other accounts registered under Settings > account and sync.

individual apps u need to turn off the sync within the app settings.

I've seen a few people post in this thread a few versions ago saying that their screens had dead pixels too.
And if i remember correctly, you will not be able to claim for warranty unless there are more than 5 dead pixels.

Yeah i saw that in their warranty T&C too.

"Zero Bright Defect (ZBD) only applies when it occurs within 7 working days from purchased date, regardless of dot quantity, the defective LCD panel/module shall be replace by SAMSUNG.

Bright Dot Defect occurs when pixels are always lit or "ON". Black Dot Defect occurs when pixels are always dark or "OFF". "

What is this ZBD thingy ?
