Just placed my order earlier today for a brushed aluminum case mate barley there case. Although this case was a bit pricey its worth the money to protect my device once it arrives and it looks really really good from what I have seen.

64GB SanDisk microSDXC from EBay

I promised to post back here when my 64G SanDisk Class 10 (UHS-1) microSDXC card arrived from China via EBay ($64 w/ free shipping), and it has, 9-days later.

As I expected, it's genuine, and not a fake. So, to all the doubters, I say again: just make sure you buy from reputable EBay sellers with a 99%+ rating if you don't want to get scammed.

FWIW, the ebay seller I bought from has since raised his BuyItNow price from $64 to $72, and most of the other sellers have too, so, supply/demand has apparently changed.

I'll update later with benchmarks, but I don't have my phone yet (and the expected ~30MB/s is close to USB2's limit (in an adapter)).

I'm trying to decide on a battery, but I'm not sure what to get. I got a Momax 1700mah for my i9000, and its been great. The site I got it from doesn't carry the i9300 battery of that brand though. I was looking at an Andida on ebay but I saw some unfavourable posts about that brand on the forum. I really like my current setup with my SGS, having the extra battery and wall charger so I never have to use a cord. I wonder how long til the wireless charging system is released?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] SemiGamer:
Soo I'll admit I'm a noob when it comes to MicroSD cards, and I need a little advice.

Which one of these is better?

http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Mobil...UTF8&qid=1340318281&sr=8-4&keywords=microSDXC

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Flash-Memory-Brushed-Metal/dp/B005TUQU00/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top

Both well-known brands so I know they'll both be durable, but which performs faster?

If the Sandisk performs a bit faster like the specs show, is the little increase in speed worth the lack of damage protection compared to the Samsung? (It'll stay in my phone the whole time most likely, so I don't really seeing myself damaging it.. But who knows right..)

Edit: Upon further reading in the discription, it appears the Sandisk is also water/shock/magnet proof. So which one would be the better choice?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] bc760:
Here it is!

Alright so the case is exactly what i wanted and definitely think its going to look good with the white, although it was pricey im glad i got it.

Case Mate Barley There Brushed Aluminum Case. Now the wait continues for my S3 from Verizon:crying:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Evo450:
I ordered the Zenis dock. It should be here by the time my Verizon preordered phone gets here. I never really understood the need for a screen protector. I've had touch screen phones for over 4 years now and never once got a scratch on the screen.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ven2112:
can someone explain the point of NFC Tags ??
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Neverendingxsin:
i preordered the seido surface case and holster combo as well as a screen protector. I got a 64gb sd card and maybe get the seido dock as well
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jovu55:
That second link (Samsung) is for a normal SDHC card which is for cameras and stuff, you'll need the same type MicroSD cards like your first link to fit your SGS3.

In general besides the branding, it's best to see the class of the card. If you look here http://bit.ly/a1HANS Class 10 cards would be the fastest, but Class 6 is also well rated cards for HD recording and media. These are normally noted on the card with a small circled number.

IMO any established brands like Sandisk, Samsung, Apacer and the like should be good, like you said above depends on the features listed with each card that'll sway your decision. I've found Sandisk cards to be rather good quality cards and am going to purchase it for my SGS3 - the 64GB micro SDXC Class10 card to be specific.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] SemiGamer:
Herp derp, wrong link, the Samsung microSDHC 32gb Brushed aluminum in the "What others often buy with this" section of the SDHC i accidently linked [I'd post a link but dolphins being a jerk and not letting me copy).

The picture shows black plastic but description shows brushed aluminum so judging by reviews its just a wrong picture.

But at $41 do you think its much better than the Sandisk / If at all since the Sandisk is rated at higher speeds (Though reviews indicate it doesn't reach them)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jovu55:
Yea did find it a bit odd that you linked a totally different card after stating you wanted a microSD but anyways.

Depends on what you prefer, either card from Sandisk or Samsung would be good. I would choose the Samsung for its durability (it markets it as being "withstanding the pressure of 1,6 ton vehicle" which is impressive on paper) and it being waterproof (then again Sandisk somewhat does pretty much the same). I would choose the Sandisk for its general speed (if talking about the class 10 variant - as Sandisks generally outperform its minimum stated speeds). Actual speeds of the cards may vary but theoretically we're comparing up to 30MB/s (Sandisk) vs up to 24MB/s (Samsung) read speeds.

Then again we're talking about using the cards in a SGS3, so speed wise we won't find a major difference from class 6 - class 10. However speeds will be more apparent if you intend to transfer files on a computer. From your links, price would be the last factor to think of - I see a $10 difference.

Again I re-iterate, you can't go wrong with either card. In the end you'll have to choose yourself, mainly because as you see from my answer they're both great cards and are generally pretty much similar in most aspects. Personal preference is the key here.

Edit: Some reading that may sway (our) decisions: bit.ly/MP16EN and bit.ly/yHT5Q1 or bit.ly/IMWpOM

I am getting the Sandisk because I'm looking mainly for a 64GB capacity MicroSD card.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] SemiGamer:
That Samsung 16GB that's in one of those links you posted has 21mb WRITE speed... Too bad their 32gb isnt rated at that :( haha.

Leaning toward the Sandisk 32gb since its $10 saving and performance won't be noticeable from the looks of it.

Where you buying your 64gb from? Price?

Wish I had caught that $50 best buy deal on it...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] TracerBoB:
A 32gb class 10 card and an Otterbox Defender. I know not everyone likes the bulk but my Evo survived some brutal waters on Minnetonka over the last 2 years with no damage. Not to mention the ice fishing, hunting and other outdoor adventures. Oh yeah and my 2 young daughters!

Pocketnow has been running a NFC tricks series this week. Have a look.

http://pocketnow.com/2012/06/22/fun-and-tricks-with-nfc-and-your-android-part-3/

Also, Samsung is selling their own overpriced tags and launched a free app on the Play Store that works with all writable tags. Search for TecTile.

One other thing to be aware of is that some tags have very little space on them. The tags in the first post that mentioned them earlier in the thread for example were 68 byte tags. The ones Samsung sells, and I think the TagsForDroid.com ones, have around 1k of memory on them.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jovu55:
Because I'm from NZ, it's quite hard to get a card of that size (64GB) for a reasonable price so my only choice is to get it from eBay. I'm just monitoring some listings to make sure I get one that is genuine.

Currently looking at http://bit.ly/L2kzTz - some buyers seem to refer to this seller as genuine. Not entirely sure though.

Getting it all. Will prob continue to order new cases... got 3 so far. Yesterday my USB OTG cable came in and that's been fun to kinda play with. My Cpen came in the mail today. That's really cool. Though just a nice accessory AI can't really find a good reason to get one.. it does help keep the screen VERY clean. Unfortunately the capacitive keys don't recognize the pen. Got a car dock and the only thing that I'm still waiting on is the all cast share dongle. :D

*edit* I take that back.. the pen does work for the capacitive keys but not very well.. even worse for the back button.

Check out proclip usa. I have been using their holders for a couple of years. You buy 1part that clips onto the vehicle ( most vehicles have1-2 mounting options) and the second part is the device specific mount. They are really solid. Expensive but in my opinion well worth it.

Guys, i'm like, really confused here.

Look at those two memory cards

http://www.ebay.com/itm/SANDISK-MOB...emoryCards&hash=item4d00e14a7c#ht_2688wt_1168

http://www.ebay.com/itm/SanDisk-Mob..._Accessories&hash=item2ebe25f0dc#ht_633wt_910

First one costs over a 1000$! and it sold over 200 pieces!

Second one costs the normal price of 105$, and it's from a top rated seller, and it sold around 50 pieces.

Where is the logic here? O___O

The card looks exactly the same to me, yet the first one costs nearly like 2 galaxy s3 phones.

We all have a favorite launcher to use on our Android device. Apex has been my favorite launche, and I think many Android user prefer Apex Launcher than any other.

If you’re on a custom ROM and want to set a different launcher as your system’s default and only launcher, then all you need to do is push the APK to /system/app.

REQUIERMENTS:

I)ROOT ACCESS

2)ES EXPLORER

3)APEX APK FILE

Let’s try making Apex as a default launcher.

1)First you need to have a file manager that has root permissions like ES File Explorer.AFTER ISTALLING IT GOTO SETTINGS

TICK THESE OPTIONS

i)UP TO ROOT

ii)ROOT EXPLORER

iii)MOUNT FILE SYSTEM and BACK UP SYSTEM APP

2)open your file manager and copy the APEX APK file that you’ve just downloaded from official site, then go to /system/app AND PASTE IT THEIR and if have ANY OTHER LANUCHER LIKE NOVA,ADW ETC U CAN DELETE THEM IN THAT /system/app

3)THEN RESTART UR PHONE U WILL HAVE APEX LANCHER AS DEFAULT...!!!

IF U HAVE ANY PROBLEMS DO POST ... :D

(IMPORTANT :- 1)COPY THE FILES WHICH UR DELETING BECAUSE IF U WANT TO USE THEM AGAIN JUST PUT THEM IN /system/app AND RESTART)

[HTC Rezound] print.logic:
Hi All,

I just traded my Rezound to a guy on CL. It is rooted, s-on, with Scott's stock rooted ics. Anyway, the guy sent me a message saying that it froze on the htc screen (though it worked flawlessly when he walked away with it). He apparently called Verizon who got as far as the bootloader screen then wouldn't help him. I walked him through getting to recovery then doing a wipe. He says it is still stuck on the htc screen. I am concerned with what Verizon may have told him to do. Can y'all think of any reason doing a standard wipe all from Amon Ra wouldn't help? My feeling is that since it gets to the recovery screen, it is fixable. Any thoughts?

Thanks,

Kim

So I would bet he didn't do a factory reset unless he either flashed the stock recovery or RUU the phone.

Since it is s-on it sounds like he flashed a different rom and didn't flash the corresponding kernel and that is why it sticks at the HTC screen.

Do you know if the korean rom has English

Should I go ahead and buy it or this Korean phone is different?

Any help be must appreciated!

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMXO:
you need to find out if your country's uses the same frequency as the Korean model. I know its 2100 for S Korea but there could be more. The reason why Korean is cheaper could be that only S Korea or a few country's is compatible with Korean models.
