Hi all,

I was wondering,  will I lose my CWM manager if I installed a custom ROM?  Also do in need to re-root the phone everytime I installed a new rom?

Thanks a bunch smile.gif

Depends on what rom you installed. You can always install it back through apk file readily available from xda
No need reroot as long as you are not flashing official stock using odin in PC

Anyone has problem connecting S3 with USB?

It always disconnect midway. I have to keep disconnect and connect again. This also happens while transferring files midway.

Until I give up, pull microSD card out and plug direct to pc for transfer.

Maybe is your usb port problem or cable problem
I prefer to use wifi file explorer app which is faster

My yoobao 11200 can charge 4x easily my galaxy nite battery (2500mAh). Each time battery about 5% left
Any less is probably fake or defective. Have been using it since nov last year
It is still going strong
I used it every 2 to 3 days

dude. what did you put as the "source(data) path" ? Is it "mnt/sdcard/Andriod"? I checked my gameloft folder and it has nothing inside. Seems like all the big game data file is in "mnt/sdcard/Andriod". Did you move all the apps or just those big game files?

Thanks!
*
I noticed depend on the game, some data is in gameloft folder, some in android/data/game name and lately eg asphalt 7 is in android/data/obb

good  rclxms.gif  they already say it straight, your phone can go download mode, if it can go download mode, they are LYING TO YOU BIG TIME about changing motherboard, if need to change motherboard, they cant go into download mode.

so its either can get into the mode directly or you have to buy USB jig (rm10 maybe)

stupid shop, better spread the word not go to this shop, SPREAD IT WIDE
*
With emmc partition partially destroyed you can still boot to download mode. Odin can still be used to flash it but probably will get stuck at factoryfs stage. If this happen than must change motherboard

But how much is it in Malaysia (contract and non contract ?). Price wise i think they need to be matching or even slightly lesser than the S3's RM2.4 launch price. And over the next 3 months it needs to drop to RM1.8 or lower.
*
It will be similar to ip4s prices when launched : RM 2190, RM 2590, RM 2890 for 16 Gb, 32GB, 64 GB respectively

Msian Aple store has now drop off the 32 GB , 64 GB ip4s and left only 16 GB but now at a reduced price RM 1799

Resellers always want to earn a profit
If you think their price is too high than get it yourself directly.

Why bother when it is not even sure there is a S4
Probably Samsung will drop S4 n go fully on windows OS !!

Win 7.5 n upcoming 8 is a complete revamp of earlier win 5/6 which are dinosaur compared. Seriously win 8 is a great threat to android . Test just to assess the present win 7.5 n you will understand

Google in the web for the apk. This is mine , might not be the latest version but it works. Just install the apk directly

The Lumia 920 will be my next target to try out Windows new OS. Nearly bought the 900 but on further research it cannot be upgraded to Windows 8 due to supposedly hardware limitations, I have since drop the idea

well can i noticed titanium save the back up in internal sd.so i moved it to my external sd card.is it ok?

You can set your backup default at external sd
Menu/preferences/backup folder search whole device
Before doing this create titaniumbackup folder in ext sdcard
