I would say just replace it with another, working SGS3! Obviously yours is defective. You do not have to change brands, I don't think you will find a better phone than what you already have. You just need a working one! It is not a SGS3 problem, but just your unit.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Janker5050:
I odined th k3 leak so im on k3 rpm and modem.... Its better than ics.. But not much... They wouldnt give me a note 2 because they think it will be the same issue.... The dna is to new.. They have cln replacements... So thats why they offered me the maxx hd.... The white one is sexy.. Im gonna let them sh ip it and try it out for a day...

There is a problem with their radios and samsung and verizon is aware of it.. The best recption i got was on the k3 leak..and im still having constant 4g drops... and my source in verizon devolpment says k3 is the ota.. Im gonna have them ship the white maxx hd try it for a day and if it aint worth it to me. Ill send it back and press the note 2

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 4ktvs:
I would trade it for a DNA as well, but it would be a pain because it has not been out 30 days yet. I know this because of my Droid Razr to S3 swap.

I would not ever get a Razr again due to issues like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rDxJoGv3FLA
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shawn12350:
I wouldn't get the DNA. I had it for a week and took it back. I love the gs3. The DNA is a good device bit the lack of an SD card slot sucks. There are a lot of apps that aren't compatible with it right now but I know that's due to to the screen resolution but I'm not patient enough to sit around and wait for support to be added. The camera quality compared to the gs3 isn't as good in my opinion. The battery life isn't bad but the gs3 is much better and you have the option to at least get a bigger battery if you need it. The on screen menu button drove me crazy although you can fix that problem by unlocking and flashing a custom ROM. All in all i would stick with the galaxy s3 much better phone in my opinion.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] stkiswr:
Don't think I can agree that ios is better than motoblur... The new blur is as close to aosp as any of the current skinned Os.

That being said the real question is do you even care about unlocked bootloader? Does it really matter to you?

Maxx=better reception(based on moto typical performance in the wireless area) and better battery.

Gs3=more open platform. Camera is better than moto.

There are plenty more but if you don't care about unlocked bootloader and signal is a priority, get the maxx. My wife has a gs3 and works in a terrible signal area. My rezound gets better signal in her area. But she loves her gs3 so much she won't get another phone. No concern for bootloader to her. She loved her old spring gs2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] krazie1:
Well I can give my opinion since I'm on the RAZR maxx HD, the device is well built and cool looking. It is smaller on the screen size but it feels more comfortable for me, my girlfriend had the gs3 and the RAZR feels more better in the hands. Also you can if the battery is conditioned, get 7 hours of on screen time with 4G. That is what I have got your looking at 6-7 hours on screen with 4g and more then a day before the phone needs to be charged. Also the RAZR has a more stock jellybean look instead of being heavily themed like touch wiz. The signal is indeed strong with faster speeds, just have to test for yourself. Hope all goes well with the RAZR and your signal issues get fixed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] droidstyle:
The Note 2 is the best device Samsung has built to date for signal!!! The 3g radio is also far superior to the s3....I have not had one data drop on my Note 2 in areas where I normally would get them on my s3...not to mention I also get 7hrs of screen on time with 45-50hrs of battery life between charges. The s3 is a solid phone and I never had any trouble with signal except when it switched to 3g in fringe coverage areas...
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 1ManWolfePack:
New Moto devices are solid -- locked BL or not. The newest skin IS as close to AOSP as you can get, as said above.

Additionally, the post that read "known radio problems" are just silly to me. People often generalize an entire launch of a device with their issue. My reception is wonderful. I'd say it's more an isolated, local issue with many of you. I've owned about every top tier device of the last year and I can honestly say my S3 is one of the best. My bionic was horrible and some of my Nexi were great. Lol. Plural :)

Anyways, that wouldn't be a bad replacement IMO, but I'd shoot for a Note 2. That thing is a tank and getting a lot of love.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] 4ktvs:
I had the Droid razr for 8 months so I know they are any thing but solid. They can't hold 4G unless you stand less than 100FT from the tower.

This is how I know: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TSKMhrV12hE

I did think they were throttling me, but the 70 or so GB on my S3 says the phone just sucked.

3G should work well for him, but 4G good luck with that is all I have to say about it.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] manaox2:
I wouldn't take any motorola device to replace the S3. I might consider the DNA though. If there was one device I would strongly consider, it would be the Note 2. It also just received an unlocked bootloader on Verizon. The only deterrent is its larger size.

BTW, I just flashed the latest radio leak from http://rootzwiki.com/topic/34053-of...zon-sgs3-sch-i535-odin-or-recovery-flashable/ which greatly helped my signal. Nice to be able to do that.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jjenkins2005:
I was offered the DNA or 8x after declining the Maxx.... I'm leaning DNA but after reading reviews on WP8.. I'm tempted.. I have another upgrade in a few months so I just may try WP8.. She said that if I was happy by Jan 30th when she reviewed my account again I could get the Note II :D
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] funnyperson1:
You probably want to make sure that all the apps you depend on are available if you are considering windows phone. That seems to be the biggest weakness of the platform.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jjenkins2005:
Yes and it's painful.. I use the Google Voice integration on Android religiously and while I see options for it on WP, I don't see one just yet that will let me make a call using that number and that would be a deal breaking.. I also rely on Google Music, Dropbox and Google Drive.. More so DB since i have over 50GB of space... May end up going with DNA until I can get the N2.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] sololhj:
I was only kidding about IOS, just wanted to express my dislike for BLUR

I'm not a "Vanilla Android" snob(they exist), so I'm not against the idea of skinning. It was Moto's implementation that has always bothered me. My DroidX was very buggy before I put CM on it. I have a Bionic running stock and the recent ICS OTA has made it even more buggy than my OG Droid Incredible running stock gingerbread.

All pale in comparison to my GS3 running TW 4.1.1 I haven't tried the newer Blur but if its less buggy It may be worth a try.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] belovedson:
i have gone through several gs3's through verizon. i currently own a gs3 for both sprint and verizon. i believe the gs3's are made in different locations. The amoled quality seems to be different and the radio reception seems to be different from phone to phone. The gs3 i currently own for verizon has a pretty good radio and gps combo opposed to the first gs3 i have had. The Bluetooth, however, seems weaker.

People often say Motorola has a better radio. i think it has to do with less demands for Motorola's have allowed Motorola to keep most of its manufacturing to a couple locations. Samsung in the other hand seems to be mass producing from Korea, China, and other locations. Of course i haven't verified my assumptions

Take the DNA! That's what I did....the specs should last me well into the next year or so. My phone gets here on the 24th!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] wingtytn:
ive use to be a moto fan until i brought a device and seen it was poorly and cheaply put together i brought 2 of them from different locations so it wasnt just a bad batch and talkin to a few friends is wen i made up my mind not to deal with a company like that and if u had service problems wat would be the difference in devices if u get no service then u hav no service a different phone wouldnt make a difference
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] dems86:
I would only take a note 2 or another s3. A DNA sound nice but i would have to play with one first, and research the ease of use with roms and what not. Mobile odin is just so nice on our Samsung phones for when i want took go back to stock or something messes up with a rom i flashed. No idea how it is with htc phones.

Locked bootloaders kill the longevity of a phone.

No way.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jguns112:
If battery life is more important than just about every other feature, then the maxx hd would be a good replacement.

Well ....I took the note 2 instead...with the bootloader unlocked and a 3100mah battery with the s pen.....never looking back...also 4 cores lol.....

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bad113:
By default, internal memory call is "sdcard" and sdcard will call "ex-sdcard" :eek:, so, apps will install on "sdcard". it make internal memory get low when i install some apps with big data.

Now, my sdcard is free to 3,5Gb but i can't install any app because "sdcard" is full :crying:

anyone can help me solve this ?:confused:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iSpammer:

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bad113:
thx, but you can say what i need to do after my phone rooted?

my way now is move manually all data from Android folder in internal memory to Android folder on sdcard :(
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sguerrini97:
The phone has the internal memory mounted on /sdcard, and the external sd card mounted on /sdcard/external_sd.

Many apps save their data on /sdcard, so in the internal memory.

I used this script to mount the data from my external sd to the right location (you need root and busybox):

busybox mount -o bind /sdcard/external_sd/Android/data /sdcard/Android/data

busybox mount -o bind /sdcard/external_sd/Android/obb /sdcard/Android/obb

This will move the data to the external sd. To move the app (apk file) you should use something like this:

busybox mount -o bind /sdcard/external_sd/data/app /data/app

I'm using ScriptManager to run the scripts at boot.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] redspeed:
Why on earth would LG release the phone like this? It makes sd cards useless. Apps don't use the sd card at all and install extra data to the tiny internal storage itself which is only 2Gb. I can't even download offline maps because I don't have enough space. Has LG acknowledged the problem? I'm going to return this phone because of this

LG added Apps To SD

Hi Friends,

I had decided to root my LG L9 once my warranty period gets over to get App to SD functionality added.

But now LG has incorporated this functionality in its May, 13 's Software update.

So now no need to root any more.

Just go and update your OS using "Software Update" and use App to SD functionality in "App Settings"

Don't forget to click on Thanks button.

Enjoy ;) :good: :laugh:

My phone is updated. A bit more detail in the instructions would be very helpful. I'm tired of running apps serially (one after the other) because I have to uninstall one to install another. Either that, or instructions on how to increase the internal memory on the L9 would be very helpful.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] LennartII:
Installing to sd card I have no solution for, but moving apps to sdcard (which is as good a solution as any) is simple to do with stock software. Go to your standard file explorer. It takes you default to external sd (being your external sd card) and sdcard0 (being your phone's internal memory).

You then tap on sdcard0; it shows you all the folders present there. At the bottom you see an Icon depicting a sdcard with an Arrow to it. As you want to move apps to your sd card you tap on it and it shows all your folders with a White empty Square. You then tap all the apps you want to move to your card and tap on "move" at the bottom. That takes you back to the startscreen with external card and sdcard0. You then tap on your external card and "paste". Job done!

Good luck!!

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] James Bottomtooth III:
I currently have SlimBean 2.9 on my I9000. Everything runs very well and I have not had any problems at all.

Having said that, I am wondering if it is worth upgrading to a 4.2.1 ROM. This is where I need some help. In your own experiences/opinions, are there any noticeable performance improvements in 4.2.1 over 4.1.2? Is it worth doing an entire wipe followed by the pain in the backside of restoring apps, settings, etc? Or should I just stick with 4.1.2?

Thanks in advance
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KUN1:
I am also on SlimBean but 3.1, yesterday I was on the latest HellyBean and i think at the moment the 4.1 Rom have the better performance than 4.2. If you want a smooth stable and fast phone stay on SlimBean.

You also can make a nandroid and try a 4.2 and if you don't like you can restore.

Basically, it for a different phone, with different cpu, different gpu, different camera, different OS and different kernel base.. :)
[HTC Sensation] chrisund123:
Get a jellybean system image from a Jellybean One S S3 and I think that will be a bit more useful, as its the same CPU and same resolution screen.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
You might as well delete it, we cannot do anything with OTA files as they are in .p patch form, the patch files are applied to the current system files (the patch files contain a diff of all the changed code - this enables HTC to keep OTA update size small). Because of this OTA files will not work on any other device other than the one specified.

For JB One X - I have the RUU but again this is useless as its encrypted and as mentioned above, there is absolutely no point in doing a port from the One S, everything needs to be resized and it requires too many man hours :)

There's many reason, in 1st jelly bean will be update in the beginning of 2013 so why spend time to develop rom on ics while they will be ou of date in 1month? Second, it's only the 2nd phone with intel processor x86 and in 3rd the phone isn't LTE and not dvp for usa so i think it's a little bit out of date compare the new phone like the razr M for example.

[Galaxy Note II Accessories] \/icious:
I noticed that the extended battery makers make the battery covers in 2 different forms. One that makes the back uniform in size and ones that make the phone look like it has a tumor. Obviously this is ment for the tumor style and i would assume that they are all basically the same size. Even though some companies state their batteries have a begger capacity than 6400mah it bet good money on the fact that they are all the same size and that most are probably not going to even meet the "6400mah" standard. However i thought i saw in another post where someone had a 6200mah battery and it actually tested out to spec but batteries in the past for other phones have shown that a lot of aftermarket batteries dont live up to their claims.
