Mentioning infowars was my way of adding a hint of sarcasm into my post. I do not buy into that. But I did run the tests side by side and both phones were on a solid 3g sig and both were bouncing between 3/4 bars. The results did seem strange to me, I will be going back in the next few days maybe and do it again. if anyone is interseted i will post the results again.

as a side note LTE and WiMax are not nor ever been availble in by area.

The only thing flat is their IQ flat 0. I'm serious I think they have to be borderline mentally retarded to still think the earth is flat. I mean if you get on an airplane or go out in the open ocean on a boat you can quite clearly see it's spherical. It is funny to read people swear its a flat petri dish in an alien laboratory and the sun is just a spotlight 3000 miles above us on the ceiling of the aliens lab :eek: :banghead: I think those ppl had one too many :beer: and hits off the crackpipe :screwy:

I know the s3 has expendable memory... But not all the apps can be installed on the memory. Would you go with the 32gb for extra $50?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] bauerlucas:
I did not because 16gb of memory can be bought for 15$ and I use the Internet for most of the stuff I do on the phone. Not a big gamer but I can't imagine a game that would not fit on 16gb. You can move some apps to sd. It's up to you dog.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Cerv3r:
Not with it really I already have a 32gb class 10
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
I got the 16gb. But wish I had gone with the 32gb! Its almost full already! (Backups, roms, updates mostly)

Organized chaos!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] spodie:
I was told when I bought the phone the 32GBP didn't support sd card???? If it does support sd I f***** up cuz that internal memory is VERY IMPORTANT!!! please tell me the 32GBP has no sd support???!!!??? If it doesn't support it 16GBP all the way... that's what 32Gb sd class 10's are for!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
Both 16/32gb have external sd card slots. Supposedly supports up to 64gb microsdxc.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] RaymondPJR:
I'd go for it. That was my original intention, but I couldn't wait for T-Mob to get some in stock, and I refused to order it online. So I bought the 16 gig, will wait for updates to fix any issues and for JB, then I'll sell this one and defray the full cost of the 32gig. Might even be able to get it in black by then. Anyway, it's all in the future. I'm really happy right now.

It's not worth the $50.

If you worry about your apps, (Which most of them are able to run from sd card) you can have them all in your phone and your photos/music/everything else in a 32GB sd card.

Here's a Samsung micro sdhc class 10, 32GB. $28 :D

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] KRAZYADROIDMASTER:
I get it with 32GB. If I had that extra money laying around.

Just wondering how much space is left on each model out of the box ???

16GB???

32GB???
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rookiegenius:
nah dont waste your 50$. I bought a 32Gb micro sd for like 15$ on amazon for all my media stuff (music, documents, video,etc). you have 11Gb for apps alone and no way you can fill that up (btw I dont install big games)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] redsoxticket:
Not worth it, get a sd card that can then be used for future phones. Justification for me is that this phone will be drop in value when the S4 lte comes out and it doesn't matter if it is 16g or 32g the market will be flooded.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] The_Biz:
So you're basically telling him to avoid getting something he may want because when he goes to sell it, there will be a lot of them available?

If I was OP, I'd get the 32gb if he can get a deal on it. Even at the normal cost of the phone and a 64gb card, you have almost 100gb to store stuff. But then again, I use my 64gb card for the camera and video recording as well as internet radio recording and much more.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] redsoxticket:
Not so much as telling him what to do but looking at it from another perspective like playing devils advocate.

The OP should also consider your perspective especially if warranted by his needs of memory usage

If you don't expect to get a SD card then the 32G phone would be a good choice. When you look at the maximum memory capabilities of the 32GB phone there is only a 16% reduction with the 16GB.

I got the phone subsidized 16GB for a total of $179 and when I asked CS what the cost difference of the 32GB would be and they said 80. If it was $30 I would have grabbed it but not $80. I think I made the right choice because by the time a newer phone comes around there may be a need because I expect to have a collection of music and videos by then for now I have almost squat.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] md1008:
If you have endless amount of apps then go with the 32gb. You can't at least not out of the box save apps to the sd card. For everything else the 16gb should be fine with expandable storage up to 64gb
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] thiagomme:
To answer the op's question: 16gb.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iGoOsE76:
Well worth the extra space... anyone that tells you that you don't need it is just wishing they got the 32gb internal. I got it and put my 64gb sandisk class 10 card for back up.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] neotoky:
Completely agree. A lot of people saying no because they don't have it. I have the 32gb and it's well worth it. I have also have the 32gb external but soon will get the 64gb. The more space for me the merrier. The resale value will also be better than the 16gb.

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] md1008:
Its only worth if your going to use it all.Honestly couldnt see myself using 32gb if internal data. 16gb is just fine for apps and sd card and cloud is good for every thing else
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] :
Wannabe fc3s much? :p
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] jaygajay:
It all depends on how you use your phone.

If your not going to use the whole phone storage then just stick with the 16gb and get a sd card with the extra money. This way when you switch phones you have the sd card to switch to another phone.

I have the 16gb model and a 16gb sd card and i have a lot of music and have yet to max my storage. And now since T-Mobile is releasing a new Truly Unlimited plan, i can now use dropbox for storing all my pics and videos and use google play music to stream up to 20,000 songs stored on my google cloud.

So the need is all up to how you use your phone. Everybody is different.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] rookiegenius:
Lol of course everyone wants the better. The point is he asked if it is worth it or not. 50$ for an extra 16gb is not worth it. (to me)
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] iloveandroid16:
Its not worth it.. you can get a 16 GB SD card off eBay for around 15 dollars.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Saturny:
16gb For Me.

It depends on how you want to use your phone. 16gb internal is fine for me, 'cause I got a 16 sd card on ebay for $9.49 (+free ship) :) I don't game on my phone (maybe a little later), or store ebooks (yet), But with all the cloud services out there, the sky's the limit.

Best move i made, nothing worse than seeing your phone is full.

Zedomax has a hack that is a life saver for a full phone.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Nardholio:
First off, I can't take credit for this. ninthsense and etherfish discovered the missing information in the ICS files. There are missing permissions for the keyboard backlight in the boot image, and the actual file that controls lights, /system/lib/hw/lights.n1.so is missing some stuff.

This also fixes force-close related freezes by setting the default.prop to insecure and debuggable.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] inthepit:

Worked perfect here, that fixes my only serious issue with the ICS rom.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
I'm glad i was of some help :) . My first significant contribution to android. Will have to get back home to test it.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] The_Bizzel:
does not work for me either. used Root Explorer to take the "lights.n1.so" file from download and overwrote it at /system/lib/hw/lights.n1.so, and rebooted several times, and still got nothing
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
Overwriting the file won't work in my opinion. As these files are part of the boot.img and resides inside the ramdisk. So even if you change something in the ramdisk and then reboot you'll return to the original version.

I guess the only way is to flash the boot.img with the files inbuilt in to the ramdisk. So the boot.img posted by "Nardholio" should work.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Roeni:
Mhh just copying the .so file does not work for me to, even after wiping the caches.

I'm going to try this boot.img thing later this day.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] QuentinX5:
Didn't work for me at first either after I copied and pasted it. But when I went through and opened up a Terminal on my phone to install everything (I always thought I had to use Ubuntu on my computer for it. I don't know why I never even thought of using a Terminal on my phone to do editing on it and all...) and went through the steps on the link (didn't clear my cache), and it all works. Just a heads up for anyone who might be as slow as I was :P
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Nardholio:
Both files are required then I guess. Thanks for letting me know.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] d0nat0:
confirmed working after both files were pushed. warning to others, do not wipe /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 if you have not verified that boot.img is on /sdcard via terminal emulator or adb shell:

cd /sdcard
ls

goodluck!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] LuckRocks:
Can anyone help me with this via step by step?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] magicninja:
I could use a little help as well
[Samsung Captivate Glide] The_Bizzel:
Yea, i could use some help too, after re-writing over the existing file didn't work
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
OK guys here is the step by step guide :

I'm assuming that you're rooted and are on windows PC :

1. Install root explorer or root browser lite (free) from market. And copy the boot.img and lights.n1.so from keyboard_fix.rar in root of your sdcard(phone).

2. Launch the root explorer and Delete the existing lights.n1.so file from /system/lib/hw (probably you can keep a copy somewhere)

3. Copy the lights.n1.so from your sdcard directory to /system/lib/hw

3. Make sure that the file is presen/copiedt in the directory.

4. Download fastboot.zip file attached to the post and extract it in one of your directory on the pc.

5. Connect your phone through a usb cable and i'm assuming you've the usb drivers for your phone already installed on your pc.

6. Goto command prompt and change to the directory you extracted the zip file into.

7. issue the command "adb shell"

8. You should get a android prompt. Issue the command "su"

9. Issue cd sdcard and then issue "ls". Just to make sure that the boot.img is there.

10. Now issue the following commands:

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9
dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9

11. Reboot and you should get your lights.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] Roeni:
Copying the boot.img worked for me :o

For those who having trouble, look at the Link, posted in the OP

How I did it:

Copy files to sdcard: Use a network enabled file manager or email or drop box (or, or, or) to get boot.img and lights.n1.so to /sdcard

Setup ADB: Google "xda setup adb"

Boot into CWMR: Reboot phone, holding power down (Link: Get CWMR)

Choose in CWMR:

Mounts > Mount sdcard

Mounts > Mound system

Execute Commands on pc

Open Shell/Cmd

Type: adb shell

Type: ls

you should geht a file listening of your root file system

Type: dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9

Type: dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p9

Type: cp /sdcard/lights.n1.so /system/lib/hw/lights.n1.so

Choose in CWMR:

Wipe Cache

Advanced > Wipe dalvik cache

Reboot system

That was the steps as I remember, no guarantee :o don't brick your device ;) if you do: use one-click-ics-leak-tool and start from scratch :o
[Samsung Captivate Glide] LuckRocks:
Worked! thanks abunch man
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
You are welcome. I also did it just before posting the steps and glad that the biggest bug for the leaked ROM is now fixed.

I see that the lights go off very quickly unless you keep pressing something. It's related to "Touch Key Light Duration" under "display" in the settings. But i see only 1.5 seconds which is set currently and 6 seconds. If i change to 6 it's too much.

Does somebody know how to modify this value according to whatever we need ?

[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
Who wants to be my guinea pig? :) This is my first CWM script. It ran successfully on my phone but I already had the patch installed so I need a tester :)

[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1669489 is a basic primer on CWM commands but my biggest discovery is the ability to call busybox from the script. Makes a huge difference. To mount a partition from CWM, it wants you to know filesystem type and partition type. With busybox all I have to do is tell it to mount :laugh:

I used D4 Update Zip Maker mainly to zip and sign the package http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1207467

It includes shortcuts for common CWM commands but like I said, seems to work better to just use busybox commands. D4 Update Zip Maker only comes with support for 2 phones, but I selected the Evo and it worked lol. I think that's mainly for stock recovery support, and you won't find busybox support in stock recovery anyway.

And you didn't ask, but I used the dsixda kitchen in an Ubuntu VM to split off the ramdisk from the boot.img http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=633246
[Samsung Captivate Glide] rovar:
Excellent. Got homework for the weekend now :p
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jwood55812:
Awesome work! So just curious, the boot.img from the stock zip is like 8MB, but this boot.img is only around 4, are we going to be missing stuff or is it just merging the 2?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
The boot partition is 8 megabytes and when you dump it out you get a file exactly 8.0 megs in size. I can assure you my version is the entire boot.img, without the padding, but the system doesn't mind :)
[Samsung Captivate Glide] jwood55812:
Aah ok! Thanks for the response, like I said, I just took a cursory look at the images and noticed the difference :) I was going to try and cook up my own ROM for personal use, and wanted to see if you could just swap the boot.img in a CWR zip with this one, drop the .so file in the right place and have it work off the bat :)

[Samsung Captivate Glide] hazard1nc:
This worked fine after install it rebooted and didn't work until second reboot, then all worked good except one thing..

I dunno if it worked or not since I didn't use the slide out keyboard until back light worked but, I noticed I must hold down the alt key while pressing for a number or punctuation. I was wondering if you might know how to fix this as its annoying when you gotta hold down the key and the other key is just above that key and you gotta use your other hand to press it.. I don't like that at all and its very bothersome, so any ideas on a fix for press and it self holds like it did in 2.3.5 and 2.3.6

Sent from my SGH-I927
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bakageta:
That's strange, my alt key works exactly the same as 2.3.5 and 2.3.6 - tap once for a single alt key, or double tap it for alt-lock.

Q: Is this for use with any of the ICS ROMS posted on the board?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bakageta:

[Samsung Captivate Glide] masterhaides:
This is fantastic. Thanks so much!
[Samsung Captivate Glide] roothorick:
This worked flawlessly for me. More than flawlessly actually -- it had a wanted side effect. My volume buttons wouldn't work if my phone's screen was off due to the proximity sensor, which made it difficult to change the volume during a call. After flashing your zip, now they ALWAYS work during a call regardless of the screen state.

Not sure what you did, but I'm glad it happened :)

Light fix for the LH2 release is now posted in first post of the thread. I didn't add "hard root" to it this time, it didn't seem to do anything last time.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
Wow this is fast :). As i read the new official LH2 ROM has a latest kernel, so can we flash this over your NardROM 0.2 ?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] galuquetta:
Do i need CWM to install this?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] :
I don't think it would hurt.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] bakageta:
CWM is certainly the easiest way to install this. Without CWM, you'll need to follow the manual instructions linked in the first post, which require root at the very least, and ideally should be done from a custom recovery's ADB shell.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
Thanks. Now running NradROM with the latest kernel from LH2.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] kirbee213:
Is there a fix such as this without root? This is my GF's phone and she does not want it rooted because of the flash counter voiding the warranty. So now that I am 99% done flashing the update I have to fix the damn keyboard without a root. Anyone?

Well you don't need root if you use CWM. I assume you don't have that either. Unfortunately it requires root or CWM.

[Samsung Captivate Glide] ninthsense:
Did not try GPS after the LH2, but just to confirm i did a test right now. It took about 7-8 minutes to obtain a GPS FIX but it certainly got it. Time maybe more because i was trying from my balcony And i was really not directly under the sky.

Apart from that i find it as stable as before and haven't got a problem till now. Things i've used so far with no issues

. Bluetooth transfer of files

. Camera pics and video

. Music player contimously for 3 hrs

. Browsing in chrome over wifi continously

. Making and taking calls

. Torrent downloading for hours :D

In all, i'm quite satisfied with your NardROM 0.2 with the LH2 kernel. Waiting for your new release.

A few of my friends and I (specifically my teammates) started up a fantasy hockey league for the 12-13 season (if they reach a collective bargaining agreement that is) and I wanted to stay on top of things with the team i manage.j

So here's my request:

-A fantasy hockey app using ESPN servers

-Shows players/roster

-Lets me edit my team

-Lets me view my standings in the league

-Alerts me when a player is injured/scores/wins a game/etc.

So if anybody could do this THAT WOULD BE AMAZING!! I don't care if I'd have to buy it from the play store (well under 5 bucks i mean) but thanks a million times in advanced for anyone who could pull this off.
