anyone else notices that SGS3 lags when on home screen and going to messages and going back to home screen ?

or is it just me ?

and when I press the home screen button it lags, got a bit delay before the screen turns on

tried several possible ways to fix these issues, but no avail sad.gif

my microSIM had a tiny bit of the golden part cut off.
The guy at the shop said it's okay, but another friend of mine said that it actually WILL cause problems..

So if I scan my IC and theres a beep. what will happen?

Where to get the NFC tags?
*
it is just to check if your NFC is working or not, I think

and nothing will happen , it just is the easiest way to check if your battery supports NFC (correct me if I am wrong)

Plan B is awesome for finding your phone for situations where you didn't take any pre-emptive precautionary measures beforehand.

but before you lose your phone, there is Avast mobile security. Once you've enabled the anti theft feature to install it on root, and using a fake app name to trick would be thieves from deleting it.

also protects you incase they try to remove the SIM, you will be notified by sms what the new SIM is. Not to mention you can set it to auto begin deleting your data when it detects the sim card has been removed, or to lock down the phone so it cannot be accessible unless they input the correct pin code.

The thief also cannot reformat the sd internal because avast will block unauthorized users from doing so unless they input the pin and remove the admin privilege for avast before they can uninstall avast anti theft from root.

Also shows you the gps location of the phone.

Thanks will try it

Been trying since today morning but i think the phone not yet opened so it havent been downloaded yet, i think

The sad part is this phone i gifted to my dad, just few days ago (on raya sad.gif )


Btw does anyone have any idea if in malaysia is there any company providing phone insurance like in uk, us ?
