Please post back to let us know what they did, if they fix it.

If there is no fix soon, I think I'll be getting rid of the Galaxy S3 and buying a HTC One X or a HTC One X+ instead as this problem slows most the apps and usage because it is constantly trying to download data through a wifi connection that is very weak, so weak that it slows my 20MB broadband down to 2MB sometimes (tested using the speedtest app).
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xdazulu:
well, i got the device back and the problem is still persisting. after contacting samsung again, they told me to send it again. i am certain that this will not change a thing.

fist htc now samsung.

edit: sent it again to samsung.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] cameron_rahman:
SOLUTION:

ok guys, following my previous posts with this problem, I have now found the fix.

yesterday I updated my galaxy s3 to 4.1.1 Jelly Bean and the problem seems to be sorted now, I have Ice Cream Sandwich running before.

Note: when I ran several speed tests on my phone, I got 17MBs and on my laptop I get 20MBs in the same location, so it's slower but connection is a lot better and constant now.

Hope it stays working.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] covers:
i noticed this too, i was having a lot of poor signal with a lot of ics roms i.e. diet ics, wanamlite, kyanrom. once i flashed to drewgarens M6 it was problem solved.

i have a repeater in the master bedroom and everytime i enter the room before on ics my signal would drop and i would have to shut down my wifi on my phone then back on to get full signal. now with M6 rom it stays full bars where ever i am in my house always grabbing signal.

i think its an ICS issue for i747m
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] xdazulu:
i got it back. the've changed wifi module. now everything works perfect.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] hTc Arod:
Bought my GS3 Black Friday online. Received my phone the 29th. I have noticed the same issue. My network I use at work I used to get full wifi bar and now I only get one and some times zero and it turns off the wifi because there is no wifi. Looks like I will be going to the store to exchange my phone. Hopefully that fixes the issue.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] mms6:
WiFi seems to be much consistent with JB (stock)

No more of that "zero bar" or "connection lost" BS.

Seems to be much more stable, still the signal is not as good as my Samsung Captivate or my iPad 3.

The problem with this ROM is they removed most of the CM settings, most importantly "scrolling cache". You can't disable it, scrolling stutters so much. It's a little faster than official though atleast in Antutu.

I have an LG Optimus one p500 that's stuck in fastboot mode.

After doing factory reset,phone entered in fastboot mode. After selecting that the phone rebooted but was stuck in Fastboot mode. It's been stuck for 5 days and I can't figure out how to exit fastboot or just reboot regularly.

Methods tried:

-Battery pull then turn on

-Press and Hold Homekey, Powerkey and Volume down when booting

-Run fastboot on my command prompt and reboot, continue or flash command

-Phone is not entering emergency mode

<But they all end in fsatboot mode "Fastboot: Processing Commands" still>

I've tried everything and read everyforum, My questions

1)How can I just reboot my phone regularily! so it's not in fastboot mode?

2) Is there a command prompt for fastboot that willl exit fastboot?

I just want my phone to work normally! Please help, much appreciated!

Please reply fast because my phone's warranty is over.

Actually,my mobile was not getting recognized by pc.

But after lot of efforts,i have flashed original LG rom.

Now,the problem left is fastboot mode.

I have tried flashing different recoveries and it shows that recovery gets updated.When I entered" fastboot reboot ",then it again entered in fastboot mode.

Then,I entered "reboot recovery" in terminal emulator.Then,it entered in correct recovery mode.So,I feel that Button combo have been changed or I have to disable fastboot mode from some settings or adb(as read in some forum).Can you help me regarding this?

You should press home and vol key first and then press power.

Ignore if you do it correctly:o
[Optimus One, P500, V General] fd1999:
Again:

Press and HOLD: Vol DOWN + Home-Key + Power until recovery starts. Home-Key + Power is the combo for Fastboot mode.

[HTC Rezound] Therev29:
I will look into the clock. The only thing I can think of is using sense 3.6 m10 in a sense 4 skin seeing we don't have working m10 tools for sense 4. Not sure how it will look let alone if it will work but I guess its worth a try.

Working on a vr theme right now to get into the framework and system apps, there is still some green eluding me but hopefully I can track it down!!:D

edit: well I still have to go through things but first impression is a success!!! Kinda, lol. It changed the clock font and color but not the background. This breaks the link with fusion so it looses the aluminum finish and reverts back to the stock look, which in my opinion looks much better overall with the theme. I going to go through it a little more fix up some images in the 3.6 m10 and try again. If goes well, will post it up. Oh and as a bonus....... it changed the lockscreen ring :D:D Guess we have a way to edit the lockscreen rings now!!

New skin in the OP!!

This is a hybrid skin, meaning it is a sense 4 skin and works on sense 4 but uses the m10's from a sense 3.6 skin.

I was able to theme the clock font color, some of the widgets, as well as the lockscreen ring, and others. :D

Let me know what you think. This was a quick put-together and I plan on doing a once over.

I know another battery life thread, but I want to know what battery life people get that are heavy users. What i mean by heavy is people that play games for an hour, watch videos, surf the web, music, download, calls, text. Things that would drain the battery quick and because the screen is on.

On a regular day I mostly text get about 1.5 hours of music and 2 hours of video/game. I don't play games all that much just watch videos during my breaks, surf the web allot and download small files. I have always kept WiFi and GPS enabled on all my android devices.

I had the SGS for 2 days and noticed it only lasts about 12 hours, my previous phone (hTC Raider) with the same usage would last about 14 - 16 hours.

Judging from the fact that he's on Blazer rom (I used to have a GSII), I'm assuming he's on sprint. Assuming he's on Sprint, I'm assuming he does not have LTE in his area yet. This could account for the huge difference in how long the phone lasts overall.

Being on AT&Ts LTE, I can get around 4 hours of on screen time and 15 hrs overall of medium use.
