actually what is the benefit of changing CSC?
stil blur with this

slimbean
try it tonight !

Oh? Well, since Gmaps is free, that's why I always use Gmaps.. Hehhee

have never used anything else besides Garmin. But not on an android

yeah..http://www.slimroms.net/
currently on build 7 stable
no samsung goodies for u btw
just pure android smoothness

i also dont know..the problem is kies says" your current device's firmware is not supported to update via kies"
i tried to change the csc but still cannot update via kies

this is weird, on sotmax rom,

found more and more bugs. duno apply to all leak or not.

the stock gallery, and google's gallery, when i press menu and check for pic detail, the gallery app will force close. only for pictures in camera folder. other folders can check details just fine.

by the way, sotmax announce in his xda thread his phone spoil already.
something about micro sd card malfunction and damage his mother board.
so no more sotmax rom already.

Newbie question here xD:

Just wanna know if it has wifi direct file transfer?
Any camera app crash issue? Can snap photo while taking vid?

aosp rom wont have wifi direct built in.
need use app superbeam. once both phone have this app then can send files via wifi direct

camera app crash sure will happen eventually. but quite rarely.
there is an app to instant restart camera without rebooting.

default camera app in aosp cannot snap photo while video,
but once you flash 4.2 camera app, that one can snap while video, but the video quality have low frame rate.

wifi direct? dunnow how to do it even on stock samsung rom with s4?
mind to teach how. wil try it

camera is stable n alot faster than stock 4.2.2 samsung

no video+ picture snapping bro.
maybe need another apps to do it

mention wifi direct time after time before...but duno why its not catching up.
its way more useful than bluetooth.

lets say in file manager, got a file you wana send,
instead of share via buletooth, choose share via wifi direct.
it will bring to wifi direct screen and search for device. (similar to bluetooth)

receipient phone go setting, wifi, wifidirect, then wait in that screen. (kindda turn on wifi direct)
on sender phone, will detect the receipient phone name. tap it.
receipient phone will have pop up, tap accept
(whole pairing takes less than 15 seconds)

wuala! transfer begins with speed between 2-4MBps. (depends on distance)
just for comparison bluetooth speed is about (200kBps only)

oh did i mention wifi direct support multiple file transfer too? haha

wah, i just start download Fantasy ROM...

Thanks guys for the info. Those are my common use stuff.
Wifi direct, both phone have to pair 1st (under wifi setting) and then just send file via wifi direct... i always use it to transfer hundreds MB files to friends.

Nope,

Camera Crash happen, in some cases, reboot of the HP really required.

CSC basically is to indicate the country for this phone originated from, you may change your CSC to other country CSC but please bear in mind that you can only change to CSC within the region.

Base on my experience, we can only change the CSC to S.E.A CSC, unless you flash Europe ROM that you can change CSC within Europe Region.

Because in every region there are some special apps/ features will only work on that region, that is also another reason why there is different ROM code.

Benefit for changing CSC is not much but the one that i aware is if you change to the CSC for region that always receive latest ROM you will receive first loh..

Normally this is due to after you flash from some unofficial or custom ROM back to official some residual security code still sit in your phone.

My advise is you do a factory reset and wipe cache partition but remember all your information and data will gone. please do a backup before taking this move.

Good luck!

bro, still cannot..did factory reset and cache wipe..still cannot

this is the app to restart camera in aosp rom.
this app take 1 second to restore the camera app to working mode.
no need to reboot the phone which takes up to 1 minute.

MUST HAVE for aosp roms.

So far I been using this S3 since few months, I have no issue at all for my usage. Battery Life give me about 18hrs ++ based on my usage and running on this Stock Rom 4.1.2.

Base Firmware: I9300XXEMD3 (4.1.2)
Region: Europe
Country: Turkey
Carrier: Unbranded
Build Date: 23 April 2013
Modem: XXEMA5
CSC: OJVEMC1
Change List: 1160235

Using Stock Browser for surfing, also no lag so far ok.

so far not happening even once on me

Why dont you flash MY rom via PC Odin and see whether Kies can work or not ?

Mine using Stock Rom 4.1.2 from Europe Region (Country - Turkey), Kies is working.
