Customer service is a meh in Malaysia while malaysia consumers in some cases rude n think that when they pay $ they are allowed to talk rude n treat staff worse then animals.

Yes...like Ebola virus...lolz

Guys I'm a bit confused, if rev 1.4 meaning it's safe from sudden death cases?

so far, no one seemed to be denied of warranty claim for sudden death issue. Regardless it was rooted or stock..
So getting warranty claim is not the issue here..

The real issue that is bugging me is that, why are some people getting back the same mobo with 1.100 rev and some with newer rev of 1.400/1.500 and for those who got back the same 1.100 rev mobo, what if the mobo die again after another 150~200 days. By that time, warranty period would be over. Then what next?

but then again, all this is just concerns as none of us would have reached 1 year of usage on the S3 yet. So we wont know.. But nonetheless, its a concern and it would make people feel insecure and uncomfortable.

yes. if you mean new firmware as new stock firmware from samsung, then yes. but what do you mean by themes? go launcher themes? apex? or you mean custom rom themes?

that is an app, amirite?
if yes then no need (only if OTA update)
i'm guessing that you've rooted your phone so only odin can flash your phone. then you need to reinstall.

lol if you say it like that then of course gone when reflash with new firmware. didn't catch what you mean actually but yeah, i think it will be gone when you flash with new firmware. flash = total rewrite(?)
