Hello guys, I'm planning to buy secondhand S3 next month. Any advise for me to check out for b4 agreed to buy? BTW, how's the stock android 4.3 ? Was it smoother ( or better should I say )than 4.1.2 version? How much free RAM got from the overall total? How's the battery consumption, more or less than the 4.1.2 ?

Any reply will be appreciated.

Better check properly for 2nd hand unit.. Nowaday clone unit is many on the market..

The easiest way to differentiate genuine S3 and clone S3 is genuine one used AMOLED display which has good contrast and the color reproduction tend to oversaturated especially green color whereas clone S3 usually used normal LED display, TFT-LED display or LCD display ( LCD seem to be more brighter than AMOLED ), am I right? Anyway, thank you for reminding me . smile.gif smile.gif

1. What is your budget?
2. Do you have a unit ready to buy and how much?
3. Check all parts are SME
4. Call SME to verify the IMEI number
5. 4.3 is not in malaysia
6. Smoother depending on individual
7. Free RAM depending how you use the phone
8. Battery is various from one to another.

1.My budget is around RM 700 - RM 920. Since the day my lovely S Advance was lost (stolen), I think I should not buy a smartphone with price RM1K and above. You see, once bitten, twice shy.
2. But android 4.3 other countries firmware can be flash through ODIN, right? Anyone who had flash the new India firmware, can you share your experience in here? biggrin.gif

Android 4.3 rom is depend on which rom type you want. AOSP rom 4.2.2-4.4.2 is less memory usage and smooth compare to Samsung 4.3 stock/custom rom.

But as far as I know lack of support such as HDMI and etc.

As for S3 battery, It is highly recommended to get extended battery from Samsung or good battery manufacturer.

Can you recommend some of the good extended battery brand (battery with NFC )? nod.gif

Either get that awesome battery  rclxms.gif  or get original s3 extended battery.. smile.gif

What is the price for Samsung S3 extended battery? Mind to share ? smile.gif rclxms.gif

Try to take out your simcard and insert it back. Then, reboot.

Wise to say go to the respective threads and ask there lor. Or you can go to other Lenovo smartphones thread like P780, A805...... . There are some people there who get their hands on s820 and s920.

I love to use SwiftKey too but SwiftKey got a bug, sometime when I'm typing ,no words appear, the arrow key also don't work. It seem SwifKey had lost its control. Had to revert back to stock keyboard.
