Er.. can elaborate this further?

2. whenever you go overseas, you can simply use the local pre-paid card to have cheap access to phone service without resorting to expensive roaming exorbitant fees

Thanks!

well if you bought the phone at full price, chances are without rooting, the S3 may be already unlocked.

I think you still need to root to get the other benefits for apps still hmm.gif



To unlock there is this Galaxy S3 SIM Unlock by Voodoo

However there is an additional step to make sure the unlock sticks. Because everytime you update your rom, it will reset back to locked status. Refer to XDA forum via google on how to keep your unlock status.

Another big question I get, is, “If I root my phone, can I use it on another carrier?” The short answer is no but I’ll explain.

Rooting and unlocking are two completely different procedures. Rooting your phone does NOT unlock it. In order to unlock your phone and use it on a different carrier, you must either purchase an unlock code (if you have GSM phone), flash a new carrier’s firmware manually through a cable (if you have a CDMA device), or you have to alter the phone’s baseband (as with the iPhone unlocking software).

Now, this seems to become a very confusing thing for people because of the iPhone I think. Sometimes people get confused with jailbreaking and unlocking by thinking they are one in the same (understandably with a name like jailbreaking you might think you are “setting it free”). But this is not the case. The iPhone has software to unlock it but that software is not automatically installed if you jailbreak your iPhone. The reason for the confusion, I think, is the fact that in order to use the unlocking software for the iPhone, you must have jailbroken it first (as the unlocking app needs root permissions to change the baseband, etc).

md5 is a checksum to ensure the file is 100% matching. The reason for this is, when downloading over the internet, every so often you don't fully download something, so that is why there is md5 to ensure the integrity of the file is exactly matching.

Chances are your file is most likely corrupted. In that case, uninstall, then go back to googleplay and install again.

do we know though whether the south Korean LTE can work in Malaysia ? Has anyone confirmed this hmm.gif

P1 uses Wimax which is 4g isn't that right ? hmm.gif



PS: could this be the Samsung Galaxy S4 design due to apple winning the patent war on rectangle shaped smartphones ?

I just googled it.

QUOTE
4G means 4th generation, the definition for 4G is clear, and its perfectly clear that malaysia got "fake" 4G, not 4G, the name is 4G, but the service clearly unable to meet the minimum spec of 4G.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4G

refer to that link, to fulfill 4G, you must able to provide minimum speed of 100Mb/s for mobility, and 1Gb/s for static, means if you driver, you should be able to get 100Mb/s speed, that is 5x the speed of the fastest unifi package available currently, and static means u arent moving, u need to provide 1Gb/s, 50x of the fastest unifi package available now. These numbers are crazy and so 4G is still too far away, they can only claim they are between 3G and 4G, maybe they are 3.5G but they round up the number.

By the way read this on digi website

Will I enjoy 4G / LTE speeds as advertised? When?
Yes, when DiGi's LTE services are launched. By the end of our network modernisation programme, the network will be LTE-equipped. This means DiGi is prepared and able to immediately offer LTE services once spectrum becomes available.

If you only want to move your video and mp3 to external sdcard there's no need to root or use any apps. Just go to your My Files > extsdcard > long press video files > move > done > back > sdcard > done.
Your video files will now is in your internal phone sdcard.
Only apps got problem to transfer. That's why i bought 32GB phone :-P
