Damn right it is unless you want to get caught up in the up and coming Iphone 5 hype, Apple must hate the S3 so much

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7FpXfw0M-YI

You wouldnt believe how many to these sad lives exist, 2 weeks ago I had one of them phone me looking for advise about a 4S and tried to lead her down the right path or to at least "wait for the Iphone 5" :laugh: even told her to watch the video above

No way, she wouldnt listen, eventually sending me a text saying "The Samsung isnt for me", 2 days later she was on the blower as she couldnt use her new 4S, I made short work of her ;)

My first and only Apple product - 1st generation iPod touch.

After this, I don't own any Apple phone, the interface is just too boring, nothing impressive me, too simple and limitation even on simple task. My sister do using iPhone 4 - I don't see it big changes from Apple first multi touch device - iPod touch.

The only good on Apple product is extreme smooth UI. But this is history already as Jelly Bean is even better smooth UI. :)
[Galaxy S III General] harunjo:
my reason not buy apple product is multitasking capability

You can separate "Multitasking" into 6 categories

1) True Multitasking - you can see AND interact with two (or more) RUNNING applications.

2) True Multitasking - you can see two (or more) RUNNING applications, only interact with them one at a time. >> samsung galaxy s3 ICS (video popup play feature)

3) Multitasking - you can only see and interact with one application but all other applications RUN in the background. >>general android ICS

4) Pseudo-Multitasking - you can see and interact with one application but only RUN several applications in the background. >> iphone 4/s IOS

5) Pseudo-Multitasking - you can see and interact with one application and can SAVE STATE (to ram) other applications.* >> before iphone 3GS + windows phone / lumia

6) No Multitasking - you can see and interact with one application and can see a list of other applications which can be called upon.

The 4s camera has better quality shots sometimes but lacks all the options of the s3 camera.

Airplay implementation on the 4s is better. Itunes has more media.

Other than that the s3 is miles better.

[Galaxy S III General] a legacy reborn:
Any Android-based phone is an upgrade from the 4S
[Galaxy S III General] ijeff:
You're only going to get horribly biased responses on this forum. I would however say that the Galaxy S III is certainly an upgrade however you're better off waiting for the next iPhone announcement before committing yourself to a platform change.

The Galaxy S and Galaxy S II are most definitely not upgrades when compared to the 4S due to their SoC, displays, and camera sensors. The Galaxy S III international model surpasses the 4S in SoC and roughly matches the camera sensor if you're not stuck with the Samsung module rather than the Sony version. The display won't match it on ppi but certainly does on vibrancy and size.
[Galaxy S III General] abubasim:
Agree, but only if it's a phone running ICS or JB and with an HD display.

I upgraded from iPhone 4. First to GNote, which my daughter took. Then to the GS3. No regrets whatsoever. Better display, better Bluetooth (aptX codec with Samsung HS3000 - yummy!), better PIM (finally I can copy calendar entries instead of typing everything again).

The only thing I miss is iTunes keeping track of play counts and current position in audiobooks, podcasts and movies. Samsung's Kies is worthless so the only thing I use it for is firmware updates.

Some posts I made about why I prefer my S3/Android over my 4S/iOS on another forum.
[Galaxy S III General] dshoe:
I think Android in general has a lot more to offer than iOS, and if you are even considering the switch I would go for it.
[Galaxy S III General] abubasim:
Yes. Compared to the Note, the display on the GS3 is dimmer. That's why I miss the Note, but cannot switch back as I would lose ExFAT which I need for large HD movies.

Hi,

Loving RR 2.6.1 but I can't stand the stock ICS camera.

I really like the camera I had on the stock rom 2.3.5, any chance that it would work on RR 2.6.1 ?

If so any chance for the camera.apk link ?

Thank you.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Sun90:

I flashed the .10 leak and it seams that weather animations have disappeared on home screen and when I link my rezzy to the computer I can't find my SD cards internal nor external.....what gives?
[HTC Rezound] topgun1953:
Dumb question: Did you check the charging option to disk drive and not just charge?
[HTC Rezound] mjones73:
Did you flash the whole leak that updated the firmware or just a rooted version of the rom?
[HTC Rezound] Shallow_1:
Yes
[HTC Rezound] Shallow_1:
I'm not sure
[HTC Rezound] topgun1953:
Well, we're going to need a little bit of information if you want help.

1. How about going to your hboot screen and telling us what you have there.

Locked or unlocked?

S-on or off?

Hboot #

Radios #

2. Do you have a custom recovery installed?

3. Where did you get the leak from? OR what was the complete file name of it?

That should get us started.
[HTC Rezound] AshtonTS:
I think you forgot to flash it twice
[HTC Rezound] Shallow_1:
I did figure out the animations issue but still unclear why my sd cards won't show up on my comp
[HTC Rezound] Shallow_1:
I did flash twice but unclear if I flash twice correctly and I dumped it when I was done
[HTC Rezound] Shallow_1:
Locked

S-on

H-boot-2.25.000

Radio-1.22.10.0421r/1.22.10.0424r

No custom recovery

The file came from talkandroid.com....I don't know what it was called
[HTC Rezound] topgun1953:
Interesting...lets try a known good (to me) file go here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1757357 and scroll down to the 3rd post where it mentions "Latest RUU Leak and Installation Instructions"

hopefully you can put the file on the SD card! Follow directions, skipping step 4, boot into bootloader through your ROM or by pulling/replace the battery and hold down volume and press power. The bootloader will scan and find the ph98img.zip file. Update...it will take a while. Really no need to flash twice if each item says "ok".

Hopefully this will get you back in action.

The hboot/radios you gave me ARE from the latest leak, BTW. :)
[HTC Rezound] DownRiver_Droid:
Certain ROMS I have had a problem with storage not mounting. Did a reset in hboot and everything is fine now. Well except that I forgot to back up internal sd and wiped it all. Oops.

Spent a while configuring this for Rezound using the community knowledge posted on here. Thanks to racinwarrior for the easy to follow tutorial and funnyangrykid for the stock ani for template.

I don't know how to make a gif of this for screencap, but it's the vertical wavy X found on the N7. The main portion is set to loop 25x, I tried increments of 5 to give the rom time to load but found 25 covered all I tried.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] WoodroweBones:
One thing to keep in mind with repeaters/cell boosters though is that your signal will only be as good as what the booster is getting despite what your phone shows. For example if your Booster has a -95 dBm signal at the roof then even if your phone shows -68 dBm while at the other end you are still just getting the -95dBm so your 5 bars is just your signal to the booster not the actual cell network
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] Scifijunkie42:
MicroCell

I was really lucky. I got a letter from AT&T to come on down and pick one up, all I had to do was keep my cell contact for 12 months, I had just signed a new one for 2 years anyways.

Went from 1-2 bars to 4-5 on my SR and my wifes Apple 3gs.

IF you can get one do. But keep in mind that the way it works is that you have to set it up with and get a GPS signal. Then it will use your internet connect to make and receive calls while your phone is on the MicroCell. I have never really seen any issues either with my call performance or internet speeds while on the phone.

Step one find what phone you are using .

Step two try a factory reset .

Fails you will need to flash new firmware .

That fails you will need a service centre .
