1st, the 4s is kinda old.

Comparing SGS3 to iPhone 4s is like comparing Xbox 360 to a playstation 2, it's oudated.. the new iPhone 5 will be a lot better.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 00mred00:
I don't disagree...but there are many iphans that argued the only thing that would ever surpass the 4s would be the next model of iphone, just as all previous models of iPhone have carried it without interruption.

You also have to look at the simple metrics involved...there are only so many people out there to buy subsidized phones...samsung , with their multi price level offerings and a killer flagship have made a huge impact on the market just prior to release...and have plans to further impact things around the time that we will see the next model iPhone
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] meccadon123:
you are correct sir....i think it's funny when people act like the 4s is 3 years old :p ....And Samsung will make an impact when the I5 is released with the "note II"...which is why Apple just added the GS3 and the "note" to it's lawsuit...so Apple can have a jump start on attacking the Note II

Thanks for the link OP:good:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] UrbanDesigns:
It's a year old, you can't compare it to a phone that has been out for a few months with the pace that technology changes.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] ricocollege:
No need to move this it has nothing to do with the Apple versus Samsung case. The sales of the iPhone 4 S has diminished because the new model is coming out. And the iPhone 5 will out sell the Galaxy S 3 because of all the Apple sheep out there. To be honest, I can see how the iPhone 5 will be better than our phone.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] meccadon123:
you have a point about technology...but look at the original EVO..that lasted(and held up) for what...2 years?..THe 4s is just about 11 months old actually...now think back to the release date(Oct 11 2011) and all the sales..and think about the price and how it was suppose to be the best thing going...to only run for 11 months?...Come on now..

If people were told on the release date that an Iphone "twice as good" would be released just 11 months later...how many do you think would have just waited?

on edit: The GS3(international) was released on may 29 2012...thats 7 months its unfair to compare phones that are only 7 months apart? For that kind of money? THat's crazy...either way Apple knew what Samsung was doing which is exactly why the I5 is being pushed out so soon...

Now if you recall the GS2 was released in may 9 of 2011 and when the 4s was released 5 months later are you telling me that nobody compared it or suggested how much better it was than ANY OTHER phone(including the GS2)???

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Endocraft:
Hi, I've had this doubt for a long time, and I'd be glad if someone could give me a couple of quick answer. What does the CSC affect, and what does changing it do?

Right now using CheckFus it says my CSC is i9300UUBBLG2, and after doing a quick google search, it appears to be from Mexico or Trinidad&Tobago. Being from neither, why does my phone have that CSC? Just by chance?

Also, being in a country where all phones are carrier-unlocked, would changing the CSC to a specific one benefit me? Would having any in particular be better?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] devid801:
At the time of purchase, the phone comes with a certain firmware installed and a certain product code.. When looking for an update with Kies, you are proposed an update only under two conditions: first, the trio PDA-MODEM-CSC must correspond to a firmware officially released for your product code; moreover, it must be available an update for your same product code. CSC (Country Sale Code),

If you install with Odin a firmware different from those that Kies would allow you to install, you're changing the product code. If the firmware that installs and however journal, Kies will continue to suggest updates (if available) but linked to the new product code.

In this way, however, make void the warranty: this is in fact linked to your IMEI, connected to a certain product code at the time of sale.

The CSC is not the same thing as the product code, but similar: the CSC is that part of the firmware that contains customizations (preinstalled applications, icons, sfond .To change CSC uses this application https://play.google.com/store/apps/...sgscsc&feature=nav_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwyLDNd
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:
CSC is the consumer software customisation and is specific to geographical region and carriers. It contains the software packages specific to that region, carrier branding and also APN settings for data connection, MMS etc for your service provider.

CSC has nothing to do with what languages the firmware supports and it will not add keyboard language support either.

Its not an update code nor is it actually required to operate the phone .

CSC is part of the codes that are presented to Kies if you use the official update path . Part of not the whole code required to match to an update .

Kies has nothing to do with the IMEI code .

[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] oranabana:
Just moved from a 8 GB to a 32GB card. And cannot use it...

First I unmounted the old SD card on the phone, and put in the new, unformatted 32GB. I then choose to format it in the phone. Its a Galaxy S GT-9003i with firmware I9003XXKPN v2.3.5

It formated fine. Then I unmounted the new card, plonked in the old card and connected the phone in USB mode to the Macbook. I also connected the newly formatted SD card via a card reader, and it promptly showed up, with the correct free space (although there was a directory on it already called LOST.DIR)

I then copied all apps from the phones 8GB SD to the 32GB card, using the laptop (drag and drop). This also went fine and without a glitch. I then shut down the phone, swapped out the SD cards and booted the phone on again. As expected, it went to do the usual Scanning USB memory. It completed. The space appears to be taken up, but all apps that are on that USB are inaccesible. Their icons grey Androids with a small SD logo in the bottom right corner.

All other apps (the ones on the phone) work fine. The SD card can be used to copy files to on the computer and to take pictures...

Phone is not rooted.

PLease help, if you have a solution to this...

Many tHanks

Have you tried rebooting your phone? If it still does not work, try to unmount your SD Card via settings and then wait for it to successfully unmount and then mount again

ah ha

So, I cannot even find the app2sd app under My Apps on the Google Play store... weird. Its also not listing under Manage Applications. Would this really be the cause of the problem!?

Anyone else have any ideas, why the phone cannot load the apps copied from the other SD card...!?!
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] Rentaghost:
First of all u have to move all apps from the old sd card to the phone. Or while inserting ur new sd, the apps you moved to your old sd will not work

DONT FORGET TO PRESS THE THANKS BUTTON IF HELPED YOU IN ANY WAY :D
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] oranabana:
Thanks, but I canot make sense of this. Firstly all apps on the old SD card will never fit onto the phone (8GB, vs 2GB space), and secondly elsewhere online they always talk about copying files to the new card and then inserting that instead of the old one....

mmmh...!? Whilst I apprecite your post - its not working for me
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
When apps are moved to the SD card, it isn't entirely moved to the SD card. Only part of it is, that's why when installing apps the space for apps still decreases. Therefore you should use titanium backup or similar backup programs to move the applications.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] oranabana:
Thanks,I had a look at titanium backup, but it requires root access (my phone has not been rooted). I really dont think one should need to root their phone to move from a small to a larger SD card without having to re-install all apps from scratch...!?
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] bscraze:
Without root you will not be able to backup data(AFAIK):(
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] oranabana:
OK, so I rooted the phone and used Titanium Backup. It created a backup file on the phone memory. I thought, voila, I am good then, popped in the new SD card, formatted it, and did the restore from Titanium Backup... but:

still getting a lot of greyed out files in the application folder and on the home screens... I really cannot believe all this work is needed to swap out SD cards from a smaller to larger capacity! what a pain in the •••

I have the same problem to, just backed up my old 16gb card to my pc, installed and formatted a new 32gb card in my S4 and copied the data back over and all the apps that are on the sd card are showing up grey.
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] heathen666:
Ok, after a quick google, i've found that making a clone of the card and then copying the clone to the new card works

you can use HDD-Raw-Copy-Tool to do this (you'll have to google it as I don't have enough posts to post external links)
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] TekWizz:
Thanks! Yeah that works perfectly! (Apparently there are some "secure" folders in the SD card that start with a period, and the contents do not get copied at all. Those hold the apps and data.) However after using HDD-Raw-Copy it will create an exact replica of the smaller SD card on the larger one and the larger one will appear to be small too, so you must resize your partition or you won't gain anything, your new card will be exactly the same as the old one! You can use MiniTool Partition Wizard home edition which is free to do this: partitionwizard.com :good:
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] jaims:
I had the same problem but I was able to fix without extra software. Took old card out of my phone and installed both externally via flash readers to my pc and copied files from one to the other. View hidden files is turned on just in case any hidden items is also copied. This work great for me all apps are accessible now. Hope this helpped
[Samsung Galaxy SL i9003] CVAngelo:
Here is the step-by-step solution: http://www.tomsguide.com/forum/id-2545604/move-data-card-samsung-galaxy.html

There are two ways described to do it successfully:

METHOD 1 uses the xcopy (or xcopy32) command in a Cmd Prompt windown on Windows. The /h switch used on the command allows the hidden and system files to be copied!

METHOD 2 uses a straight copy from old SD card to the new SD card (or from old SD card to folder on computer, then from folder on computer to new SD card) using the simple drag and drop on Windows. BUT YOU MUST HAVE WINDOWS EXPLORER CONFIGURED TO SHOW SYSTEM AND HIDDEN FILES!

Just to be clear, the solution to the problem is trivial. You are simply copying ALL the files from one SD card to another. There is absolutely no reason that copying ALL files from one SD card, including the complete file structure, to another SD card should not work. Your phone can't tell that you switched SD cards. It only knows the files and file structure it can see on the SD card and if they are EXACTLY the same as they were before the switch, your phone should work exactly like it did before the switch except now it will see more free storage space on your larger SD card (which was probably your goal in the first place) AND your phone may possibly even run faster by accessing the data much faster if your new SD card is a faster class of storage media.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO ROOT YOUR PHONE OR INSTALL ALL KINDS OF CRAZY APPS ON YOUR PHONE OR SOFTWARE ON YOUR COMPUTER TO DO THIS!!!

BUT, the key is that YOU MUST ALSO COPY ALL THE HIDDEN FILES and there are lots of them on Android! Everytime I hear of someone having a problem with switchinging to a new SD card, it is because they did NOT copy the hidden files OR their SD card was not properly formatted (FAT32) for the phone.

Is it "safe" to install Android Device Administration applications on my personal device? Can my company read my private data with that application? What if it also requires Google account privilege?

My company recently adopted a policy to install an enterprise application on each employee's smartphone. The application should be installed from 3rd party market that is operated by the comapny, and requires Device Administration privilege and Google account privilege.

Even though the application does not require 'root' privilege, and Device Administration API is not related to reading data inside the phone, I'm still not sure that my personal data is safe to my company.

FYI, the API includes changing password, wipe out data, disable camera, and so on.

Please share your knowledge or opinions.

Thanks.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AJ88:
When ever you install any app it asks all permissions before installation...

So first of all you have to get knowledge about each and every permissions.

If any app asks for read contact data

Read sensitive log data

It can access your personal data..

So just read all permissions carefully and Google for each and every permissions to know about them in detail..

Than you go

It is better to press thanks rather saying

After you install the drivers open odin add the files and only after plugin the phone in download mode. It should be ok then.
