[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] fgocards:
Thanks for the replies, and no power saving mode is off.

I called AT&T today earlier and they just acted like I was stupid, even though they had no idea what they were talking about.

I guess I'll have to return then, just don't know whether to go for a refund or a replacement.. :confused:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Woolios:
I'm kinda feel the same way as the op. After a few days in I thought this phone should scream along the screens and I'm getting a lot of stutter. I've used apex and nova launchers and they both display the same stuttering. Somehow I feel cheated that I want to trade for and international version even though giving up on ram, and no LTE. I'm hoping Jelly Bean can bring about butter smoothness as its been of the features of JB. But when will we actually play with JB on our phones, not for some time and even longer without sources. I would love to play with the international just to see which one I like better
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] fgocards:
I think the international version is a tad faster, and it's definitely faster wwith getting updates which is the main reason I am considering it.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] nk_blu:
Coming from exynos based sgs2 I'm also pretty disappointed with user interface lag and stutter. Even with nova launcher, it doesn't help. I turned off animations and transitions just so that I'll see less of the lag. Would I get the international version (assuming I had enough money)? No, because I'm utterly blown away by LTE speeds and browser/chrome is running beautifully, and that's more important for me.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] mtcarey:
I have had the AT&T (Qualcomm) version for a week now, and have not detected a single instance of lag or stutter. Smooth as "butter". Could be some ill-behaving apps causing your issues... for instance, I know that the official Facebook app is especially bad. I dumped it in favor of something called "Friendcaster" on my old Captivate, and lag pretty much went away.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Boss Daddy:
I have the white AT&T SGS3 and I can honestly say this phone is "butter" smooth.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] Stryker1297:
international has a lot more root and dev support but as for your phone's performance, it looks like they shipped you a defect. i can get 4700 on quadrant with facebook and browser in background. the rest depends on you. if you are a heavy phone user, you should get another lte version as you likely got a defective phone. that or you could root and install the latest redrum rom as its removes bloat if that's your problem. i still beleive you should get the at&t lte as the american version should be still crazy fast so its hardware or bloatware that's troubling you. quad cores isnt that necessary as of right now. hope i helped
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] stevessvt:
Try a Factory reset and see if that helps.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] avetny:
Old galaxy s II using Exynos processor with Mali 400.

Which is faster and optimized then Snapdragon (Adreno 225) in your galaxy s III.

The benchmarking results telling you the trues.

Lets test it:

Click your browser open youtube and play in "desktop mod" FULL 1080p high definition video. (Adreno 225 can't handle this)

This phone is not able to do that.

Now take your girlfriend galaxy s II phone and do samething....

Phone will play full 1080p video in desktop mod so smooth.

Conclusion:

Go get Galaxy s II (with Exynos mali 400) or buy "God like" Galaxy s III international version. Which is currently the world's fastest phone.

Best regards.

Old guy
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] fgocards:
Thanks everyone. You've all been really helpful.

Since I'm not even going to be using the LTE network anyway with straight talk, I decided to return my LTE phone to AT&T and I bought an international unlocked one from eBay. I'm pretty excited to get it and see the difference in speed, especially since I had a defective unit... :(

Again, thanks for your opinions and suggestions, you helped me come to a decision.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] es7241:
It could've been that you were on power saver mode
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] davidebanks:
I have the Internation Version as im in the UK and I also notice lag but i think this is just the Android OS itself. Jelly Bean will fix that assuming that it somes out for the SG3. Gaming however had been a little dissapointing, Riptide runs blisteringly fast but still Drops framerate especially when all of the jets are on screen at the same time. I am new to Android but seriously didnt expect this on a quad core phone! im hoping it has something to do with poor optimisation. Nova 3 isnt too great either, I reckon its running between 30- 50 FPS is it just my device? or does any GS3 Int version run at 60 FPS. perhaps i have expected to much from arguably the worlds fastest phone? Modern Comabt 3 runs quite well very smooth, looks like its running at 60fps.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)] eyecon82:
agreed...i rather have the 2gb of ram, than a quad cpu that isn't even fully utilizable yet.
[HTC Amaze 4G] `Ghost`:
I just started a new two year one day ago, havent recieved my phone in the mail yet called customer service, asked for retention and was connected to a retention specialist. I asked for the android preferred dataplan 5 gigs for 20 per month. he told me my account was unable to recieve this plan. i explained to him that ''my friend started a new 2 year a few days ago and got on this dataplan'' he said there was nothing he could do to get me on this plan. he then offered me the 5gig plan that also features hotspot thats usually $35 for $30. (this would be a good deal if i didnt know about the $20 5gig plan) but i declined. I politely asked for his supervisor. His supervisor told me there was nothing he could do and I ended the call from there. I waited 30 seconds, called back, got a different retention specialist, politely asked for the preferred dataplan $20month for 5gigs. He pulled up my account and told me he'd be able to apply it to my account and had to get it approved by his supervisor and put me on hold for a minute. he came back on the line telling me his supervisor approved it and i now have 5gigs of data for 20 bucks a month.

TL : DR version: If you call and ask for it and they say no, keep calling until you get someone who will work with you. They DO have the power to do it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] PeterC18st:
Just called up T-Mobile and spoke with a rep. She knew exactly what the plan was and said it was a promotional offer currently being given out. I already had the 5 gig plan a month at $30 with hot spot now I got 5 gigs minus hot spot for $20. Bringing me to $76 a month total for unlimited talk + text and 5 gig data. You do have to agree to a new 2 year contract though.

Thanx for the info.
[HTC Amaze 4G] `Ghost`:
i didnt have to agree to a new two year.. the nagain my two yea contract was only 2 days old at this point.
[HTC Amaze 4G] Sk8trfred:
I have that price but I was offered it along with my faves 600 mins unlimited text and insurance on 2 lines I pay $137/month including taxes
[HTC Amaze 4G] justin lamantia:
I've bin wit t-mobile for about 6 yrs I got 3000 5 gigz data for $20. But now they call that a grandfather plan , I've just recently added two lines and complained about that same issue definitely will try that for my two out of four lines. Props for the heads up.
[HTC Amaze 4G] jmd1981:
Anybody know if this works on value plans? I tried calling, but they said they didn't have it.
[HTC Amaze 4G] christpunk01:
It'll work on value, kind of. It's a glitch at times really. If you're not gonna use tether, it's worth to save the $5 a month. If you want tether, pay the $5 to have it hassle free. I've been able to get it on value half the time but really, it's luck of the draw. If ya trust a stranger TMO rep online, pm me your # and I'll see if I can get it for ya. :)
[HTC Amaze 4G] `Ghost`:
thanks for being a team player christpunk01. Need more people like you helping out.

I just hope me making this thread helps some people score a great deal aswell

20 bucks per month for unlimited data (throttled at 5gigs instead of 2)
[HTC Amaze 4G] PeterC18st:
I been with T-Mobile since voice stream left briefly for Nextel but returned to T-Mobile right after. My original plan was a promo plan 1000 minutes unlimited nights and weekends for 39.99 unlimited text for 15 and unlimited data at 20. My plan never went past 78 bux after discounts. I just recently changed my plan to unlimited and throttled data which I don't mind. I hardly go over 2 gigs anyway. Just didn't like the fact when I changed my plan to unlimited it increased by 10 bux. Now I'm back to what I'm comfortable paying for my service. I feel like I won because of the better plan.
[HTC Amaze 4G] imatrap:
Where do I sign up? 4 lines and the bill totals for almost $250-$300 every month. I pay $20 bucks for my line and I'm currently on:

FamilyTime 1000

• 1000 whenever minutes®

• Unlimited weekend minutes

• Unlimited weeknight minutes

Services:

Family Unlimited Msg

Classic Simple 200MB Data

Visual Voice Mail

I'm really interested on getting this, however, I hate being in a contract; I don't want to be in a contract. I'm I going to be renewed to two years if I get this?
[HTC Amaze 4G] PeterC18st:
Yeah. They renew you for 2 years once you sign up for this plan.
[HTC Amaze 4G] imatrap:
Boo, I'm stuck with classic simple...

Sad panda here :(

You must not value your job much, you should know better then to offer to access someone's account without speaking with them directly. You should help him by telling him to call instead of putting your job at risk as your not supposed to access others accounts unless they are in store with you or on the phone with you.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] androidmonkey:
I havent touched my NC in about 8 mths. I have CM7 on it running from SD. Is it worth putting CM9 on the NC? I have CM9 on my Touchpad and SGS1 and love it, Im curious how well it runs on the NC.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NapalmDawn:
From what I've seen, yes. But there's several things you should do as a massive precaution. Back up all apps via titanium and copy the backups off the device. Do a nandroid and copy that off the device too. There's been a few bootloops (including myself) and it's handy to be prepared. Also the newest CWM is good to have.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RASTAVIPER:
No reason to do all above if for testing purposes someone install Cm9 at a spare sd card (SanDisk recommended).

Also, to answer to your question, if you don't care for a small lag and not full game experience, then go for it!

[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] envygreen:
I used it as a daily driver for several months and I think it's remarkably good, but I ended up going back to CM7. Better stability, better battery life, hardware accel, etc. I mostly use my nook for commuting and business travel, so playing movies, netflix, and browsing/reading are bread and butter.

YMMV of course, but I do recommend giving it a shot at the very least (or setup a dual boot!)
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mopsuestia:
What keeps me on CM9 is the tablet-format email clients and the new notification tray, but I do miss Netflix. I go back to CM7 every few months, but it rarely lasts more than a day. Hopefully we'll see hardware decoding soon and all will be good.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] billard412:
Actually 2nd post is only half correct. Technically it used to be by decompiling part the framework and removing a few things however my understanding is that yes, now they control it on their end :/
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] tek_curious_1:
What a shame. I don't think that they (t-mobile) understands the data demands that are about to be placed on their network with the addition of such a powerful device as the gs3. Not even their highest 10 Gig. plan will be enough to quench the data thirst of these beastly machines.

I flashed GB rom KJ1 via PC Odin. Everything is fine except the key board saying null null. But that is ok beacuse I am not going stay in GB but planning to flash kingdoird 4.1.1. When I go to recovrey mode I can see all the options, such as wipe data and cashe. Also in advanced option wipe Dalvik cache and mountunt and storage format /cache,format /system,format /data and also the ROM KD 4.1.1 in external SD card. Therefore my question is since all option are avaiable to me in recovery mode and I am in GB rom, can proceed to flash the custom ICS rom, KD v4.1.1. Thanks

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gotaphone:
Custom ROMs usually require root access as well as the option to install a ZIP file from SD card/internal memory. Do you see such option as well? If not, you probably need to download a matching rooted kernel with CMW recovery console pre-installed. See here for a list, choose the one matching KJ1.

- erase the first few lines that say

getprop("ro.product.device") == "hercules" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "hercules" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "skyrocket" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "skyrocket");

- save it and place it back in the same folder in that zip file
