Hi all..

I'm from Croatia, I have white s3 16gb, with contract through VIP on a plan "Bez limita 111" + Bug coupon (500kn), got it for 2430kn (420$).... My phone is not branded and is unlocked... still waiting for my portion of jelly beans. :D

software version is IMM76D.I9300XXBLH1

Sit back and relax if you're not into flashing ROMs.
[Galaxy S III General] staljin:
Well I disagree. There are many guides on internet on how to root S3 and install clockwork mod recovery. It is really easy and even my 11 years old son can do it.

Just give it a go.

Soooo guys when is jelly bean due in croatia?

[Galaxy S III General] keenan1986:
Yes, I don't have the need to root, not yet anyway, only thing bugging me is that I don't have that clean ics look in setting and that reason alone is not good enough to root, I'm also scared, i payed too much for this phone, I don't want to **** it up somehow.... And, believe me, I would, these things happen to me all the time... I just broke my pc last week, my motherboard was overheating so I bought a new cooler, carefully replaced it, and now it won't turn on anymore, probably need a new mbo.... But enough off topic.... :D

Don't know when will jelly bean come... But my CSC is SEE. What is your's?
[Galaxy S III General] asukaj:
IMHO:

Try removing memory from slot in the pc and try starting with one memory module and the swap the other-70% of the time when pc wont start is the memory...

Well it is all the same for me if you root or not. I know I rooted my same day I bought it, and unlocket it from Telenor the next day.It was a peace of cake. I live abroad, Norway and have no idea if JB has arrived here. Do not really care because I am on Omega Rom all the way. Running Omega 29 now. I rooted all my phones I had so far and did quite a few questionable experiments and never ever bricked any of them.

I do understand that it is really expensive phone in Croatia, and thst you are affraid to root .

As to your mobo, try removing CMOS battery for a few minutes and than put it back and try booting.

Which mobo are we talking about?

[Galaxy S III General] keenan1986:
Wow... After almost two weeks just sitting there under my table, after i gave up on it... i went to try it again after your comment, took one RAM board out, and it turned on. :/ then i tried it with just the other RAM board, works again. then i put both RAMs as they were before, works again. I don't understand, for two straight days there wasn't a thing I didn't try, including the CMOS clearing, removing the battery, and disconnecting everything that could be disconnected and connecting again, whole pc...it just didn't give any video signal. Everything lighted up and started spinning but no video signal no matter what I did....i gave up... and now 2 weeks after, it turned on. I guess it went on a little vacation to get some rest...

MBO is ASRock K10N78-1394 (with old athlon x2 6000+)

Anyway, my last phone was HTC Desire, which I rooted 3 months after i got it, i needed more internal memory... now i don't need to root, maybe when i get bored with touchwiz and i want a clear android...

Hello all users SGS III on West Balkan.

Im from Osijek, Croatia and m long time on xda developers, most like user, not much like developer.

I was 2 years Galaxy I (9000), and now im about 1 month on Galaxy III. I was buyed my device with instaled InsertCouin custom ROM, and im not so satisfacted, because i think, too much drained battery. I will flash total clean stock ROM (ofccourse only rooted and busybox installed) but with West Balakn CSC (all provider APN from Slovenia to Macedonia). Know somebody where i can find that firmware?

Best regards and forwarding thanks on answer.
[Galaxy S III General] herbrico:

[Galaxy S III General] miro666:
Yeah, i know that, but have only one to one CSC (or T-Mobile, or VIPnet, or Tele2, etc, etc) . Exactly i will CSC with more provider, APNs points ( that is CSC file).Wanalite ROM have more than 122 CSC, but it is not stock firware... :(

Regards
[Galaxy S III General] Tenacious:
Here is stock firmwear by wanam also have 122 CSC prerooted you can chose odext or deodext one http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1704185
[Galaxy S III General] miro666:
Thanks mate, i know this, but dont know, it is a stock prerooted firmware :confused:. One question more please: Im now on InsertCoin. Is that odex or deodex I never know different about this two firmware mods? Is it same, wich I can flash on Insert Coin? WanamLite both (odex and deodex) are no-wipe, i suppose my 3th part apk stay after flashing (with CWM)?

Upravo ovo i ja trazim al samo za Crnu Goru.. moj razlog je "iznenadna smrt" i gubitak garancije ako se ne daj Boze to desi a meni tel na custom rom-u a garancije mi ostalo jos 1.5 god pa bih nesto bio mirniji da mi je sve stock u slucaju smrti da bih imao pravo na garanciju.
[Galaxy S III General] krivinash:
ako ga zadesi iznenadna "smrt" niko nece moci da vidi da li je bilo sta radjeno sa telefonom.

mozes i da ga rutijes i da stavljas custom romove, niko nece znati.

u svakom slucaju, ako vec imas garanciju, nemoj da ga flesujes sa XXELLA.

uzivaj, barem znas da si miran jos 1,5 god. ;)

jel moze u ovoj temi da se pise na "balkanskim" :D jezcima?
[Galaxy S III General] niitro1:
A sta znam,neki kao pominju da se moze vidjeti koji je rom al ako se moze vidjeti, onda je taj nesto nagrdio bootloader,to ja mislim da nema veze sa mrtvim telefonom,kad je mrtav,onda je mrtav valjda :)

Ja bootloader ne diram :) fleshovao sam ga samo na XXELLA rom a bootloader mi je stari..

Balkanska je tema i pricacemo balkanski :)

Ako si flesovao ceo fw od 1.2gb preko odina, onda imas i novi bootl.

Navodno je samsung izjavio da su u pitanju samo mali broj modela od 16gb koji su ugrozeni a opet ima ljudi koji su prijavili 'smrt' i sa 32 gb modelom cak i sa note2 modelom. A izgleda je u pitanju odredjenu model maticne koji je najvise zastupljen upravo na modelima od 16gb al ih izgleda ima i jos na po neki model.Sve u svemu,ako si bez garancije,nije dobro!
[Galaxy S III General] CHEVYbarracuda1:
Hehe.. Tlf sam uzeo takoreci na crnjaka tako da crkne li.. Uff nzm ja sam na xxela i na novi bootloader pa sta bude nek bude.. Prije sam imao samsungove tlf pa sam ostao vjeran samsungu,ali ako mi crkne s3 vidjecu neku drugu firmu.. Mada iskreno niko nije zasticen od nagle smrti telefona
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pausaniasx:
Hi folks

I'm still on the edge between an iPhone and a HOX. Could someone please discuss the state of the multitasking issues on the AT&T HOX and summary of fixes?

Specifically my question is this: there are some services that always need to be running to get notifications, like free texting apps or skype. Some services upload photos in the background, like Dropbox. Is it true that these services get killed by the multitasking as well on stock?

I've heard that Dropbox does get killed. I've never heard anything about skype and similar apps that need to sit in the background listening, so I imagine they are working fine on stock Sense?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] stnguyen09:
When I was on Sense roms with stock multitasking, I never had issues with long-running background services being killed. It was only things like the browser being killed and having to reload and other apps that have their front end killed.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
Can't really comment on the services you mentioned, but just some general observations about multi-task:

Some people have complained that during games, if you do something else, like say someone sends you an SMS and you respond, that when you go back to the game, your progress will not have been saved. I don't have time for games these days. So I can't personally comment on that.

Really, it depends on how you use your phone. For some people, the multi-tasking behavior is a deal breaker. For me, I'm fine with it. I mostly only notice it when leaving the browser. It will almost always have to reload the webpage you were looking at.

Have you actually compared the iPhone and the One X in person? There really is no comparison between the two. The huge gorgeous screen of the One X makes the iPhone look like a toy.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ChongoDroid:
You're worried about multitasking but you're willing to go iPhone? Lol hox will be fine
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pausaniasx:
Well the iPhone is going to get a bigger screen. The PPI and brightness are almost the same between iPhone and HOX.

And iphone doesn't kill your game progress and clear your text entry fields when you switch apps. And it doesn't silently kill Dropbox while it's uploading (it does kill it, but gives Dropbox a chance to notify of that first).

The jailbreak tweaks for iPhone are for my purposes completely on par with android.

My only reasons for considering switching is that the iPhone is going to get harder and harder to jailbreak (I'm expecting a 6 month wait this time). plus lose google maps which is a huge debacle.

I'm open to HOX but would need a fix to the multitasking issues.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redpoint73:
That's just a rumor, and its been the same (incorrect) rumor for the last 1-2 iPhone versions, at least.

My bet is on the screen size of the iPhone is not changing any time soon. If they make the screen much larger, and keep the resolution the same, it will look like crap. If they change the screen resolution, they fragment the iOS that they have keep pretty much unified for 5 years. People keep talking about the "iPad Mini" (something around a 7" iPad), but my hunch is that is not going to happen either, for the same reasons of not fragmenting iOS. But those are just my personal gut feelings.

And seriously, if you haven't held a One X in person, do it. The screen size is gigantic compared to the iPhone. You have to see it to believe it. My previous phone was a Desire Z, which had a form factor not much different from the iPhone. When I go back to it (pulled some files off it), I can't believe I ever used a phone with a screen that small. Similar feelings when I pick up my wife's iPhone.

There has been some fixes to multi-tasking, both available as a stand-alone mod, and on custom ROMs. So check out Development, and read more on it if nobody chimes in about those here. As I mentioned, I've been fine with multitasking. So I haven't tried any of the mods.

Also, the Asia 2.23 firmware makes changes to both the multitasking (how aggressively idle processes are killed) and free memory at boot (how much memory Sense takes). A new AT&T firmware (2.20) is just now rolling out OTA as we speak, and likely has the same tweaks. So that in itself might fix what you want. But like I said, I don't game these days, so I can't say.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ChongoDroid:
Get everything you want now, or wait for a possibility.

Btw multitasking never kills any of those things mentioned. Drop box never stops during uploads.

Android> iOS

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] pausaniasx:
Thanks for the replies. I have spent about an hour playing with HOX in store and tons of time researching whether it can suit my needs.

Franklly it has been hard to track down android equivalents of everything I can do on jail broken iOS. For reading full emails without unlocking the device it looks like a combination of widget locker and a few widgets can do it, but it just feels a bit hacked together and not as polished as Lockinfo on iOS, which is a one-stop solution. And there doesn't quite appear to be any replacement for Activator, which is a unified gesture framework where you can do things like turn on the flashlight by pushing both volume buttons at the same time and bring up the previous app with a slide on the status bar. Now I know if I look hard enough something similar for android will turn up but will it be as well supported as these iOS tweaks with hundreds of thousands of users? not so sure.

In the I think the iPhone is under appreciated here in terms of how professional the jailbreak community is and how it can easily match android for power and tweak ability. The main issue is that apple is hiring the jailbreak developers and jail breaking itself will be incredibly hard as time progresses because it relies on patching binaries and finding vulnerabilities.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] chelseainspire:
The multitasking seems to be improved in the 4.0.4 update.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] atticusmas:
Android as a whole is much better than ios. I owned four, yes four iterations of the iPhone and jail broke them all. I have also owned 2 android devices. Take it from someone who has owned and rooted/jail broke both. Android is better.

Hey, if the man wants to create an android vs iPhone thread, then state he wants the iPhone, who are we to correct him. He's not going to change his mind and never had any intention of doing so. Just let the sheep be.

I think you should just get the iPhone.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] unleashed12:
Some of the people here may say its not that bad, but trust me dude compared to other android phones its pretty damn bad, bad enough for me to get rid of the phone. Ie, if you are listening to music and browsing. Go change the song and come back to be greeted by the web browser reloading the WHOLE PAGE over again.

Really go play with one in the store before you make your decision id say, as a poster before me mentioned one of the gleaming features of android is its ability to multitask amazingly, if thats absent then its terrible. Imo the multi tasking on the hox is below even that of the iphone. Just really play with it before you make a decision, with that said i wouldnt necessarily say the hox is a worser phone than the iphone even, it isnt. Its a great phone and is still imo better than the 4s today.

I REALLLLY do miss my hox sometimes though, the amazing build quality. and the display really owns anything else on the market right now.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
Pretty sure that only happes with the stock browser... So that's a pretty damn bad example.

Doesn't Android have some kind of popup that you can use to control your music without having to leave the app?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] ECEXCURSION:
Alright, just tried both the stock browser with Pandora and the stock browser with google music player.... The page will not reload if I switch apps and change a song. So either you're lying or aren't using HTC's latest code. This is on CleanROM 4.5.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Vendetta-NY:
You're not honestly promoting the stock One X's multitasking ability, are you?
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] redrubberpenguin:
Well, the new recent update made multitasking a LOT better. As in it doesn't suck.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] Vendetta-NY:
Correctamundo... I was referring the very well documented multitasking woes on 1.73 and 1.85. But from all I've read, the new update goes a long way to fix multitasking. Looking forward to getting it! I really love this phone, even if I do stick to only the stock ROMs. ;)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] sundancer270:
Wanted to see if anyone else is having this issue since ICS. When I send an email using the stock app, and type an apostrophe, the recipient gets "&apos" instead of an apostrophe. An example would look like "wasn&apost" instead of "wasn't". I've tried 3 different keyboards, all with the same problem. Very annoying, and I'm tired of having to avoid using contractions.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] danam:
Are you sure it's on your side? This happens to me with some recipients because of their email programs, even when I send from Windows Outlook. Try sending to people with different mail programs and webmail and compare.

Just got the phone and so far so good even on touchwiz. I actually said I'll probably will go stock rom for a bit, I think a bit just bit ok nevermind. First of all, I cant believe the packaging. Its awesome not to have the cheap at&t packaging. Now when I get home I'm probably going to root. Have you guys seen battery improvement?

Also I got a bumper case for it but now concerned the camera optics will get dirtier easier, do any of you use a bumper to verify?

I'm pretty concerned about this bumper case thing. I'm almost set on exchanging it for the otter box case, dont even care how bulky it makes it. I want total protection for this new baby. Any other otter box users here.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] Apex:
I bought the "Defender Series" Otterbox case for mine, so far so good. Like you, with this phone I want to keep it as protected as possible. It's not too bulky, at least not how my Otterbox was on my ATRIX 2, but mostly the reason for that is the slimness in design on the SG3 versus that of the ATRIX. I recommend it, but I may be biased because in my job, I have to safeguard my phone with a case like Fort friggin' Knox...

Rooting allows your locked android files to be modified. Meaning certain apps need root access like tethering apps. Has nothing to do with battery life. Now a kernel and custom rom can impact battery life.
[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] SysAdmNj:
Thats what I meant, after rom'ming. But unless I get ridiculous drops in battery, I feel I'll be using that juice defender app or even look into an extended battery later on for the first time in my android life.

Can't attest to others but on average i take the phone off the charger at 7 am, usually 3+ hours of screen time with LTE internet in the mix, 6 hours of wifi and usually put the phone back on the charger with 40%+ battery left around 11pm.
