no warranty for own negligence. New screen cost rm 600+ go repair it at service center, if got stock few days.. Tell them you need it ASAP, because you will fly to overseas or something.. Cock your own story up lol Your phone will look nicer than before. because it's a new screen duh.. Happy New Year!

The lines at the 4 corners are not hairline cracks. They're the manufacturing joints. Everyone's S3 also have that.. Dont worry.

You charge with charger or using pc/laptop? If pc/laptop, of course. Cause the charging is not as strong as using the wall charger..

EDIT: HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!  rclxms.gif  rclxms.gif

got two s3 here... one white n one grey, both bought on the same day, a month ago.

so.. as the grey one, which i use it myself, hv no problem and really satisfy with it.. 1st day buy, straight away update to 4.1.1 and root it.. now 4.1.2 uk vodafone + stock kernel + cwm recovery and still running fine. its hw ver 1.1 ..charging time about 3hrs from 0% ... and usage about almost 1 day ..average 2 hrs screen and some long call..most of the time just whatsapp and sms... take some picture ..

but the white one, never touch or do anything that may void the warranty, the 1st day got, straight update to 4.1.1 malaysia.. start last week after the phone suddenly dead, n nothing can be done, i thought it already dead like everybody else who hv this, but try to pull out the battery, and put it back, still can on. but never the same again... charging rate (use original charger, wall socket) last night, from 12 am till this morning 8am... just increase to 20% (from 2% left battery) ... if use phone while charge, the battery drop. and one more thing , when use the lowest brightness (no auto) at night, can see some tompok2 on the screen (on the black screen or black wallpaper or in setting's background) .. lagi jelas kalau pakai screen filter and set it to 30%

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?...com.haxor&hl=en

but if switch on the room light or set to highest brightness, cannot see that tompok2...

so...should i just send for a warranty, or is it anything can be done first?

however what that fella said is true what. Until the day you subscribe to LTE, you're paying a higher price for an extra gb of ram with no other extra functionality other than that. So I guess you better go subscribe to LTE then you can tell that fella back.

Before you send in the white one. The charging one can be due to charger or usb cable also.. Try other chargers/usb cable if you have spare to make sure it's not the charger's fault. and try to do a factory reset and see if the problem still occurs.. If still occurs, then off to the sc it goes..

As for the tompok2, all S3s have that. When go in a dark room with little to no light, then on a black screen or what can start to see the spots.. It's because of AMOLED screen. I dont know why, nobody seems to really know why amoled screen like that :\
*
thanks so much.. the grey s3 ..average use screen 2hrs for every charge....the white s3...average use screen 4hrs per charge... the grey s3 still no tompok2... and in before .. i use s1 and s2 ,,,never see that tompok... just curios..

thanks so much for ur suggestion smile.gif notworthy.gif thumbup.gif

Wrong country but is 4.1.2? But many said latest UK ROM fixed exynos Vulnerability and sudden death problem.

If you really want Chinese you can get Go Keyboard after refeshing 4.1.2 from U.K... rclxms.gif

If your fren phone 5-6 months olds? If yes can test out the sudden death problem but don't know what is pattern after update to 4.1.2... hmm.gif

It may not fixed the sudden death problem

as 2 person already had SDS on their s3 with XXELLA

source:

1. XDA case 1

2. XDA Case 2

Try checking your phone for any duplicate numbers or names of that same number. AFAIK, when there is a duplicate name with same number, it won't show the name of the person.

Not sure about the unknown number part, also AFAIK, unknown number usually is a blocked Caller-ID?
*
Unknow Number = Private Number ... i use Private Number and it display Unknown Number on the other person i called.

in nokia, it display private number...samsung ...Unknown number
