maybe is cm10 bah
because I dual boot wanamlite 5.5 and aokp
also got the 0 folder @@

now making backup, later flash supernexus as primary rom and wanamlite as secondary rom due to aokp flash as secondary rom got low volume issue sweat.gif
*
I don't see it got related low volume issue on which rom first. And It was much easier just swap rom from 2nd rom utilities to keep both rom setting and data.

The safer way now is buying red or dark grey color which I believe not using older board.

From internet gather information. It seems you are safe if
  • Your HW Rev.: is MP 1.500 not 1.100 - check using Samsung Phone dialer *#12580*369#
  • Your eMMC was not VTU00M, revision 0xf1. Download eMMC Brickbug Check from Google Play for checking.
  • You are running latest kernel which had so call 7 fixed apply that prevent this SDS.

And now my friend red color S III HW Rev.: MP 1.500 but still eMMC VTU00M, revision 0xf1 and date 07/2012. Is it consider safe?

Mine after repair, remain HW Rev.: MP 1.100 and eMMC VTU00M, revision 0xf1 but date 09/2012 which seems newer, means it had been replace.

XDA thread about SDS has been updated, the HW Rev.: talk had been removed, and now only mention checking on eMMC version.

In this case I assume they had nothing to do with HW Rev, and I read some one point out not all eMMC VTU00M, revision 0xf1 affected, only if yours was date 04/2012 or earlier. I think that was my revision before SDS, can't really remember already.

Some mention already running latest kernel that apply 7 fixed but the phone still SDS.

End up, what is what? Samsung never give clear explanation also, all is assuming!

Yup, that is the only solution, ship to USA address can be FOC, but when forward here via forwarding agent was expensive and it only use courier services.

My personal opinion, nothing is safe until Samsung officially announced they have fixed the BUG!!! sweat.gif

Correct & I am doubt Samsung will official announcing it. This already 3rd times happen in Samsung phone of SDS.

It happen in S II (non G version), well famous in Note, now extreme famous in S III !!! All is Exynos chipset!

Not sure where you buy your phone, Singapore? I suggest you ask Samsung where you brought your version to confirm.

When you write to Samsung they will ask your IMEI number... icon_rolleyes.gif

If not wrong his one is LTE version, possible buying at Singapore.

That was indeed great news for me. biggrin.gif More choice to decide.

Samsung release earlier make sense since all others brand already pop up 5" FHD.

Exactly, un-tick then you no longer see multi window function. (that blue thing on side will gone)

Actually you can call out that thing or close it anytime by press and hold your back touch button if you not disable.

Page buddy will activate and bring you to new page (only working in original NatureUX touchwiz launcher) when you
  • Insert earpiece
  • Overseas
  • Put your phone at Docking

It auto close once you not doing anything above.

Yes.. but so far earphone page is useful for me, at least when im driving and wanna listen song bla bla bla..

I hv no idea what is roaming and docking page about.. any idea?
*

When roaming, it will appear a page with 2 clock widget where you can insert another country clock. Docking I no idea as I don't have the dock to play with.

Actually I don't know why Samsung call it "Page Buddy", sound weird for me.

Yalo! maybe that time you change SDS there are old stock left and for SC i guess they don't care ... first in first out concept applying hence you got old mobo...

Until now Samsung or some user can confirm newer mobo will not hit SDS... sweat.gif  rclxub.gif
*
I wait damn long as they said no stock, then after they do for me seems still old stock....... hmmm... but it was newer than my friend RED color as date newer a bit.

I think this SDS was Samsung habit!

Actually I also face such SDS issue on old old OMNIA II. That time also well famous!

So haiz................. Samsung product is innovation, but got quantity no quality!

* It was extremely smooth! Far smoother than Samsung Stock NatureUX Touchwiz launcher. Importantly it never auto restart the launcher! Cool!
