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

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
QUOTE(ngkhanmein @ Aug 13 2012, 01:04 PM)
so mahal? i slipped my s3 w/o casing at toilet. should be around 1.5 mtr no scratch but SP peeled off 1% over the edge only. dropped screen hit the floor. damn scary i worried got inner part broken inside..

QUOTE(Kasumie @ Aug 13 2012, 07:31 PM)
I dropped my phone for the first time from a shelves at about the height of 1.5m. . But I don't see any scratches. .

Hi there, i am fairly new in android. Owned a HTC Diamond2 till 10 days ago when the maxis deal became too good to ignore, so got myself a blue 16G s3. Rooted for backup purposes. Can i find out whether what i think is correct?

1. My titanium backup can be copied into my external microsd. If something bad happens, i can always copy the information back to internal memory, use TB and restore, correct?

2. ROM manager created the backup in my internal memory. Not sure why. So in order to open up more space, i moved the whole folder into my external microsd. If i need to restore, can ROM manager restore from my external or do i need to copy it back into my internal memory?

3. Lastly, since i have already rooted my phone, do i need to re-root if i do a minor ICS update? I am not referring to the major ICS to JB update, just the small incremental update of ICS that pops up on and off.

Thanks in advance to all the sifus and experienced users out there.

I thought their price almost the same ?

Oh man, this is troublesome. Didn't realise that need microsim to be able use S3.
Can the mobile service provider exchange it on the spot?

suggest you go change from the telco better, less worry
because if cut from normal to micro sim may affect signal strength

1 - U can always select where u want it to be copied , internal or external memory . Save u the trouble of coping here and there and corrupt the files

2 - What backup are u referring 2 ? Sorry , didnt use ROM Manager for a while . Best is go recovery and backup and restore from there

3 - Sorry , havent update using KIES for a long time
