Hi,

I've been monitoring the S3 lte threads and researching the different variants of the i9305.

So far i've been inclined to get the HK version which supports multiple lte bands.

I need your options\advise here please. Are there any pro's/con's with this choice? Would you recommend a different model?

http://www.samsung.com/hk_en/consumer/mobile/mobile-phones/smartphone/GT-I9305TADTGY-spec

I just want to be sure before i go ahead and buy it.

If you want S3 LTE I rather you get the Note II. I think more developers will develop for the S3 International 3G version than the LTE version. At least Note II is only LTE version so to me more people will develop roms and kernels for the Note II than the S3 LTE.
[Galaxy S III General] w1nter456:
Next nexus much better.
[Galaxy S III General] Steve113:
Thanks for your previous contributions I did wonder if you were trying to be funny or deliberately obtuse.

In any case the topic back to the topic I'm only interested in comparing the different LTE versions of the S3.

I know there are different variants out there like the Australian 9305, UK, HK and others....

anyone with useful information please put your input through...

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dewalty:
Not really sure where I should be posting this question. This forum seemed the most appropriate though.

Looking for a replacement for my Evo 3d, yet another phone I have owned where the screen has cracked. I have ordered the parts to replace the Digitizer and LCD as there is currently a fairly high resale value for this phone (compared to how much I paid for it)

So I have been looking for a phone that is a step up hardware wise and one that has a reasonably easy to replace digitizer or where the digitizer and lcd are not stupid money. ie htc one x 55 GBP compared to S3 @ 140 GBP

Ideally I want one where the digitizer can be easily replaced, but having looked it seems that they getting a much stronger bond to the LCD forcing you to get the LCD as well.

At the moment it's the HTC one x, non replaceable battery is making me want to look elsewhere though.

Any thoughts as to what would be suitable?

Slideshow feature is missing in Gallery for Picasa Web Album after ICS 4.0.4 Update in my 7310. I was able to run slideshow of Picasa Web Album in Gallery earlier in HC 3.2. I have synced all the Google Account including Picasa Web Album. I am able to view all the picasa web albums in Gallery. Slideshow is working only for Downloads, Camera, Screen Capture but not for Picasa Web Almums.

Please suggest how to fix or to make it work. Is there any free apps which will do this. Thanks.

[Galaxy Tab 8.9 General] djcasl:
I have Googled your problem, and there are several Motorola Xoom forums that claim the sync was removed from ICS. Others in the forum report they can sync again after installing Google+ (going back from Google+, is not a real option after that).

There was even someone who installed an older version of the Galary app, he needed to flash it by zip (lost his camera function and installed ICS Camera).

You could try the Google+ option, if not rooted. But check the forum first for more info:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LAKings55:
Really just an observation, but having been on Froyo (Bionix 1.3.1) for nearly two years now, and having missed out on GB, ICS, and JB, I'm curious as to why the option to disable mobile data or "Data network mode" was removed from the power menu option. Yes, I know you can go deep into settings, or install a widget, but I constantly enable and disable my mobile data using the power button as it's incredibly convenient for me. Are there any newer ROMs for the Vibrant that have put that option back into the Power Menu? If not, I guess I'm sticking with Froyo for good.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
I don't know of any rom that let you do that. But roms like CyanogenMod and AOKP have toggles on the notification bar, I find that even more convenient than using the power button.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LAKings55:
Since Slim Bean utilizes features of CM and AOKP, does it have the same toggle in the notification bar?

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] TeklAR:
Hello,

I have a strange problem after my update to 4.1 in my browser. After the update the freeze problem in my browser was gone, unfortunatelly I saw, that it had some problems while loading pictures. Therefore I cleared the cache and all data - as told in this forum to solve the freeze problem (in combination with a cold boot).

After that, all bookmars were deleted (as expected), unfortunately now I have no possibility to get acces to my bookmarks on google. It shows only the section - Local -. Even Saving new bookmarks I can only choose to save them -Local-.

Next step was looking at the Settings for sync - strangely there was no option for syncing the bookmarks. I have the usual contact, calendar, Pisca, mail and so on... but no possibility to sync the bookmarks.

On my Galaxy everything works fine.

When I delete the cahce and all data again, the browser shows a short messsage that it connects to the bookmarks on google (with my account) for about 3-5 seconds- but it does not work.

Does anyone has any idea what to to?

Thank you very much in advance. If there is already a topic regarding this problem, I am sorry, I could not find it.

Regards, Sebastian

Doesn't work on my Galaxy Nexus too. I believe Google drop that feature, since the JB official browser is Chrome, and Chrome sync is working fine.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ngmic:
I'm contemplating trading my GNex in for a S3 LTE. Was playing with a non-LTE S3 in the shop earlier and noticed the S3 has three dedicated buttons (one hard, two touch) on the bottom that roughly equals the GNex's "menu" (the house-shaped one), back and a funny third button that seems to activate the "options" within apps. JB/ICS has a built in app-switcher but I dont see this or some Samsung version of it in TouchWiz.

Question 1: if I were to install a custom ROM onto the S3, what would those three buttons do? I presume the "back" and "home" buttons would behave the same, would that funny upside-down "U" button then toggle the app-switcher?

Question 2: How does the S3's camera work on a custom ROM? Does it use the native camera app or is there a Samsung camera .apk that can be downloaded? If you use the JB native app, would the photo quality be the same as it would be on a regular S3 w/ the factory ROM? Do the custom ROMS have adequate drivers to support the full 8M and higher sensitivity? The GNex's crap camera is driving me nuts

Question 3: Perhaps the most important question; I want to move onto a custom ROM b/c Samsung's slow at updating their firmware, and also b/c I want to get rid of the customization that comes w/ the S3 (namely TouchWiz and what they've done to the notification/status bars + menus etc). Is there a way to do this w/o going to a custom ROM?

Sorry lots of questions, but the S3 suddenly looks a lot more restrictive than the GNex :eek:
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kangburra:
1. The buttons do Menu, home and back.

2. I haven't tried many camera apps but they all seem much the same, you will need to try it I suppose.

3. I am not sure if you got confused but I know I did!

You want to install a custom rom without installing a custom rom? No, I don't think you can do that.

Rom Index ..

Button remain the same unless changed by the rom maker .

Camera the same if using Samsung based custom rom.

3 is impossible without using a custom rom .

You can flash stock Samsung firmware often before the update .

You can flash a custom rom with the standard ASOP Android interface .

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ngmic:
Tks all for your help. Sorry the 3rd question was terribly written. What I'd meant to ask was whether there was a way to strip all the Samsung customization (mainly how they change the notification menu + settings menu appearance) w/o having to use a custom ROM?

@JJEgan, tks for that ROM index, it's most useful. Are you aware of any ROMs that actually change the menu button back to the "recent apps" screen? How can I get to that functionality within the stock factory ROM? HTC has a funky 3D switcher, does Samsung have something?

Mucho gracias
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 0semaj0:
custom ROM = modification

what you seem to have requested...is to have modification to "strip all the Samsung customization"

so essentially...you will have to look into the option of custom ROMs.

do keep in mind that there are two main types of roms available...

Samsung based custom ROMs and Android Open Source Project (AOSP) ROMs.

Samsung based custom ROMs look virtually to be the same as the original one that you have on the phone when you first unbox it...but with small adjustments and tweaks to fix things that Samsung didnt fix, or forgot to fix...usually this means the same user experience but with better battery life, smoother UI transitions etc...generally further improving the same existing experience...

AOSP ROMs is totally different ROM experience in which many users are also interested in as it gives the user a more raw, more down to earth experience to Android...in addition, due to the fact that AOSP is more rudimentary in nature, it leads to faster rate of updates, fixes as well as modification due to the larger source tree as it relates to a wider range of AOSP compatible devices...

Galaxy Nexus is based on AOSP (without the Samsung Over-Lay) while this does typically mean a more leaner, low fat ROM, it does miss out on certain features such as in-box video playback, HDR camera functions, low motion high FPS camera functions, as well as other nifty and impressive functions...in which you would have actually paid the phone to do...

keep in mind...the Galaxy Nexus does have inferior hardware as far as most users will be concerned...

Samsung's "recent apps" can be shown by press and holding the middle physical button...
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ngmic:
Tks buddy. The gNex is by no means a weak phone (for 99% of the population) but certainly the camera and screen leaves much to be desired. Call quality is quite iffy too, maybe b/c its microphones are too sensitive; I take calls on the road and the caller hears every car, pedestrian and bus that goes back. Sure it has dual microphones that does some level of noise cancellation but doesnt do a whole lot of good. The iPhone (esp 5) smokes the gNex here.

I'm not wild about all the Samsung functions but certainly having a better camera app w/ HDR built in, Smart Stay etc is pretty appealing. Samsung-based ROM it is then, if only they could bring back the stock JB look and feel...the cyan/B&W layout is very sleek.

Anyone here tried the LTE version (I9305)? Carriers here in HK are offering it for free w/ an unlimited LTE plan for about US50 a month. Bit of a no-brainer when it's the same effective price as the I9300 w/ more RAM ) but I wonder if there will be less custom ROMs developed, and how LTE battery life compares? I'm not a massive data hog looking to stream videos regularly but I do have to VPN home every few days
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattyyey:
why not remove the bloatware?

if you just want to remove the bloatware, have you considered simple rooting the stock firmware (not an upgrade and will block the samsung OTA update), then using a rooted explorer or adb or something (I personally use Titianium Backup to manage all my apps and backups) to delete the bloatware??

if you anything like me (who has been with android a while now) you'll have a set of 3rd party apps - so dont need the S Memo (love noteeverything) for example you can simple remove it from the phone. I did this for a few weeks before I moved to a custom ROM.

Heres a list of what is safe to remove...

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] XDAcat62:
I recently got a Skullcandy wired headset that has a built in mic and the small button that can be used for routing calls. There are a number of third party apps to control more closely the actions of wired headsets, most notably "Headset Button Controller", but there are other free ones, or other ones that say they're for specific headsets and are supposed to work across the board, etc.

When the headset's plugged in and I press the button, it does register somehow in that the OS (AreaRom on Galaxy Precedent, gingerbread based) tries to do something funny like call the last person I talked to or start voice recognition. But I'm not sure exactly what it's doing. On all the third party apps for controlling headsets, I never got any change in the limited and buggy behavior of the headset button. On the "Headset Button Controller", for debug I checked the button to alert when the button was pressed, and it looks like it wasn't picking it up.

But what I *was* able to do was find the keycode (231, if it matters) using the key number tracker helper that comes with the Button Remapper app (floating around here on the forums) and remap it accordingly. After I did that, I could assign one, but only one, function to it. I chose the skip track function. The apps that are on the market allow you to control single tap, long tap, etc. Would also like to be able to pause...

Since I have this kind of limited control, I wonder if it's an issue with the third party apps expecting a certain keycode? is there something that I could remap the button to that these apps would be expecting to get?

If anyone has ideas please let me know, and hopefully I can help someone with the remapping tip, which gives limited functionality to that button for me as of now.
