lol one of the best parts of living in NOVA is all of the snow we get here always canceled school when I was growing up. I was in undergrad when "Snowmageddon" happened a few years back and it was AWESOME!
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Haha I'm assuming it's from one of those states that gets like a few inches and can't handle even that. Sorry man I had to

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
Snowmageddon haha yeah that's what it was called. I loved snow days in school. Now that I'm older...not so much. Can't ride the bike in two feet of snow haha.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
Yellow snowcones lmao

Yesterday the highway that i take to work (theres only that route) the hills on both sides were on fire. My bro came through it on his way home. He said ashes and smoke every where. . Good thing yesterday and today are my days off.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] SlimSnoopOS:
Yup! I quickly learned to love it as a kid too haha

Exactly! Any hint of snow always meant no school it even a delay haha now, I'd rather not deal with it cuz I usually have to drive in it.

Wow. That's insane. Hope that gets put out quickly.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
Damn labor day weekend traffic.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Haha didn't have to deal with it too much as I didn't really do much over the weekend. Seen a double feature at the drive in, Expendables 3 and Lucy. Lucy was quite good

Lol. Today was so much traffic on my way to work. Which started horrible but got better later on. Saturday i didn't take lunch i went to the subway shop. I regret going took forever to order my food. Every fast food place was pack.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Yea I noticed that on Saturday also. A little busy everywhere lol Saturday afternoon Arby's was packed which is very unusual

This is my current ringtone. The part where it is says "this is not what it is only baby scares, I want your love like a boy needs his mothers side"

Austin Carlile ftw. ?

I saw OM&M a few months ago and holy crap it was one of the best shows I went to! They were with Woe Is Me and a few others bands. Long Island iced teas + metal show + friends = one good time.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Sounds like a blast. I've only seen a hand full of bands live. None of em I even really listen to. Skillet, Framing Hanley, Decyfer Down, all I can think of right now. I don't even really listen to much stuff that "not so hardcore" lol
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] salas2324:
This thread need more traffic. Literally this is the only thread on XDA i even look at, i havent even checked if my rom has had an update since this was created
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
Tell me about it. I figured this place would be hot with all of us gs3 users just talking about anything and everything
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDiabolicaL1:
Anyone going to be protesting on July 4th?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
What have I missed? Protesting what?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDiabolicaL1:
Restoring our right to privacy? The NSA mass world wide wiretapping scandal? Government corruption?

Not trying to be condescending in any way. Please don't take it that way...

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] thesoldier:
I haven't heard of people protesting the 4th, but that makes sense. All of this crap is unbelievable.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDiabolicaL1:
Every day that goes on I think our government is less and less in touch with the people. I think its ran away to a point they don't represent us anymore, they represent corporate interests almost exclusively.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Stolly08:
Ya I agree poor subie.... The whole lowering stuff to me is lame... Performance >Stance.... Clean flush is one thing but lowering hellaflush BS just makes me shake my head....

Hmmm protesting the 4th sounds like fun... Love our country but that Obama character is ruining it....

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:
OK, first I googled it last night, I seen the NSA stuff and a few other things so wasn't sure... But, before this gets too deep into politics, (a no no on xda), we can add each other on Google talk or Google hangouts to discuss our dislike of the government

*grips e-brake, sliding car in opposite direction*

Think beans will make an update for our phone with latest stock based? I might would switch to it for a bit, but I love pacman
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDiabolicaL1:
I'm down to discuss it with you off xda. Pm your email and I'll add you to hangouts.

I would like to continue the discussion in an open environment though. I realize xda isn't the place for political discussions but it also isn't the place for off topic discussions either--yet this thread exists. If we can't discuss what we want in an off topic thread, there's no point in having it in the first place.

Its sort of on topic though as it does affect those here, and really anyone that uses the internet, is concerned for their privacy etc etc
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Obaterista93:
Just a heads up, we brought up politics in the rezound off topic a few months ago and the mods flipped and threatened to give out bans and close the thread.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] TheDiabolicaL1:
Word, thanks.

I'm done. Sorry mods. Won't happen anymore. Pm me anyone interested and include your email so I can add you to hangouts.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] moparfreak426:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
That stinks. I was watching an episode of urban myths on Netflix. There was one where they were putting out a fire by getting huge buckets of water from the Pacific Ocean and they accidentally picked up a guy who was scuba diving. Dude ended upside down in a tree in a wildfire. Was dropped from a height of about 400 feet. Some scary stuff there

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
I was going to say I picked up a charger in the shape of a turtle a few years ago on amazon and it was a four port charger. I still use it and if I remember correctly it was like maybe 7 or 8 bucks. I have one and my gf has one. I have 6 ports in my car all together

From my S3 on Wicked 4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
I just have one charger with one port. Good enough for me.

Last week i got paid an extra day but that wouldn't effect half my pay.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Any luck with that?

Learned a hard lesson yesterday regarding fast charge within kernel options. Completely fried my battery. It will boot the phone up and then die within seconds. Thankfully me and my gf both have S3s. We swap batteries during the day and she takes the good one. With the new found bad battery without it being plugged into a wall charger it will die almost immediately.

So I tell everyone DO NOT utilize the fast charge option if you have a custom kernel, a few members told me not to but like an idiot I didn't listen. Thankfully we have a new battery coming on friday

From my S3 on Wicked 4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] capt730:
My batteries have absolutely hated me lately. I have been flashing aosp and tw roms because I have felt like tinkering. I believe I killed my stock battery. I have 2 Noot batteries that have been serving me well.

---------- Post added at 10:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:29 PM ----------

So what do you guys think of the Note Edge? I am afraid I would crack that thing within a week.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
It does look nice but I have to agree. I'd break it without a good case

From my S3 on Wicked 4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
Well i did fix my check issue. It was just split in two deposits. All good now.

I actually only used the fast charge option 2 or 3 times ever. I haven't run a custom kernel in a while. Might flash BMS on liquidsmooth rom.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Good idea not to, now as soon as the phone is unplugged with the bad battery it dies immediately

Edit: got the new battery Friday and I've got the older one which for nearly 2 years old works great. In a month I'll also have her brand new one

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:

U can do your black friday shopping online. I do online and then go to the stores
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Good point man. I used to be one of those people who stood in line early on black Friday and didn't mind being there early as I work overnight anyways. Now I won't bother for the most part. Used to go alone but places like Walmart and best buy are not places to go alone on black friday

From my S3 on Wicked 4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
I never went too early maybe 1 or 2hrs tops early. But a lot of those "deals" u can find online on black Friday or online through out the year. Like TV's. I usually tend to go to Walmart target when i go out of town then its best buy (if they have something good)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
That's true. I used to be close to best buy and all the rest of the stores. Now all I'm close to is Walmart

I didn't mind going early because if your there early enough there's like no one there, however going for the big price items alone isn't worth the risk. I always went for the smaller things which are always placed in random places throughout the store

From my S3 on Wicked 4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
Last yr the Walmart in town had a good idea of making people get in a nice line outside. But same time they had that offer if you're there between certain hrs they guarantee the item. But people couldn't even get inside the store. Cuz employees wouldn't let them. People complain.

Once we were finally inside we went for the video games wich they had us stand another line for an hr. They allow 5-10 people inside the section of the games(which was at clothing section) they only gave 10mins to find the game or movie. And we ended up not finding the games we wanted. Lol my bro was hella mad 2hrs wasted.

Across the street we went to target. In and out in less then 45mins.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Very nice. Yea they've gotten police involved in a lot of situations. Yea i used to just go to target which was indeed quicker and easier. I found this thread and I wanted to make everyone here aware of it as the OP wanted it to spread around, seriously take a look at it

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
I love unlimited data, but I never use that much. I'm always near wifi and watch most videos via chromecast anyway. Only 2 things that really chew up data anyway is Facebook and YouTube. I hardly look at YouTube videos and I hate Facebook. I'll use 4 gigs a month if I'm lucky.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Yea even when I was on unlimited data I used at the most 3gb a month. It seems at first when I got this phone i used it a ton now I don't do much when I'm not home as work doesn't have wifi

From my S3 on Wicked 4.3

Mine will last 24 hours easily without use, that's something I definitely don't miss about my s3.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Yea I agree about wifi. I ran into a conversation at Walmart where an associate was still on unlimited data and I asked him how does he use so much data, he told me that he was sticking it to VZW. He uses 50gb a month. I told him that's awesome and keep it up lol

From my S3 on Wicked 4.3

From my S3 on Wicked 4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:

From my S3 on Wicked 4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
I remember reading something like that. I remember like a month or two later i spoke to a rep my mom's fone was crapping out. The rep notice my data usage. Lol he said wow that's a lot of data. It was supposed to be a 15min call turn into an hr. He was a kool guy. He got me a free smart fone through warranty week before i got my s3.

2. You can tell her "sorry mom, I've never used an iPhone, you'll have to ask someone else."
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:

From my S3 on Wicked 4.3

Lol iPhone

Idk why people say android fones are complicated to learn. Its cuz of all the options/choices. IPhone is a dumb version of a smartphone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] BadUsername:
Everyone at work has an S4, S5 or an iPhone. They never look at any other devices. They see my phone and have never heard of it. I was the only one with an S3 also when it came out.

The S5 is definitely good, but I wouldn't even put it in my top 5. The features are really gimmicky, as compared to the G3 or M8 that have great additional hardware features. I mean waterproofing the phone is cool, but how often are you going to go swimming with it?

---------- Post added at 12:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 AM ----------

Exactly, but you can't really knock the most successful technology company in our generation. They did something right.

It's not really about learning, but tinkering and willingness to put effort into it. You have to admit, it takes knowledge and time to make an android phone to run perfectly. With an iPhone, you're stuck with what Apple gives you. Everyone is in the same boat, and since there is no tinkering possible then everyone roughly has the same experience. It's an excellent piece of hardware. Iphones are great for first time smartphone users, especially older people.

If there was no such thing as root or custom anything, I would probably have an iPhone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
I give credit were credit is due. Main issue is the OS. There hardware is good. There main upside is that they were the first of its kind. But first does mean best.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Couldn't agree more man. As far as innovation they were the first without a doubt but as far as newer technology there hasn't been a whole lot.

But before we get kicked out of here for talking about the iphone, what phone do you think you'll get next twisted? The M8 sounds good BadUsername and by next year there probably will be the M9

From my S3 on Wicked 4.3
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] twistedillutions:
My only option is M8. S5 has lock bootloader and G3 back buttons keep me away. Im just waiting for price to drop. I seen it for under a $100 but i want it cheaper im in no hurry. I read that Motorola going to announce 2 or 3 fones this month.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ShapesBlue:
Yea although the G3 is a nice phone, Yea the buttons are in an awkward place for sure. The M8 does look nice. I have to wait until June 2015 for an upgrade

Keep in mind motorola has a locked bootloader also
