This is an answer to your question instead of a rant about personal opinions.

1: You can indeed pop you 3g sim in this tablet and start making txt, calls etc. However it tales a mini sim.

2: Yes Whats App will work on this device

3: Yes

Hope this helps you to make YOUR own decision as I am sure your will find that there are those who think this is a great tablet and those who don't.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SpencaChesta:
About a month ago I had a Samsung Galaxy SIII Model # SPH-L710. I had little to no problem flashing a custom rom onto it by rooting the phone, installing TWRP, and installing the zip file from the Cyanogenmod Website. Very simple and painless. That phone however ended up breaking so I had to get a new one of the exact same model.

Now, I've been having a world of trouble with this one. To start when I tried to flash the ZIP file in TWRP, it would give me a status 7 error, I was able to remove that by updating my md4 baseband using the md4 baseband flashable zip which was mentioned in this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2303308

Once I did that the status 7 error went away, but now it's saying it cannot find the md5 file regardless of what custom rom I'm trying to install, it does say the install was successful, but all the log shows is that it couldn't find md5 file and then Successfully created partition tables and when rebooting the phone it gets stuck on the splash screen (though it IS the splash screen of the custom rom I was trying to install).

When trying to use CWM it says that it cannot even mount the SD card to install and ZIP file so I could not go very far with it and besides, the last time I did this I used TWRP just fine.

Any insight would be great.

Thank you!

Also being a new device you will only be able to flash TW roms until there is a work around for the current block...which i do believe devs are working on as we speak. Good Luck.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SpencaChesta:
TW roms? You mean Touchwiz? If so, I've tried Googling and can't seem to find a solid answer or source of what's stable, what I can use with the Sprint S3 and so on .

Tried all 4 provided .imgs without no success and tried the odin versions which gave me the same results. Seems like this has to do with it just being a new phone. I am able to gain root access, mount storage devices in twrp (but not CWM) but just can't seem to install CM nightly or stable. Just says its updating partition settings and thats it. Also says the same thing with AOKP roms.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
CM and AOKP are all aosp style roms. They at this time will not work on a new S3.

Like stated only TouchWiz roms will work. There are literally dozens of them. Googling won't help as much as going directly to the forum for Sprint S3 d2spr development section here on XDA. Do not attempt to flash any rom TW or AOSP if you did not get it from that specific section on XDA you risk turning your device into a 600$ paperweight.

Have a great day!

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Milimbar:
As was said above me, Google Now is mapped to a long press of the home key.

I have no idea why you would want it to be a double press as that is just literally 2x the wear on a button that will eventually break.

To get S Voice installed also, do a dirty flash and select that option when prompted to select what Samsung apps you want installed.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] dragonstalker:
In JB 21 there is a setting to switch between google now and svoice for the double click. choose the one you want. The trick is. They don't work like regular roms. On most roms its a quick double click to get it to function. In JB it's a delayed pressed. like pressed (count 1) press again. Took me a lil bit to figure it out too.

Absolutely nothing, except that holding down the home button brings up recent apps.

I'm fine without S noted, and I would love to have long press home for Google Now. However, long press only does recent apps for me. Was that also an option in the rom setup, or is my phone glitching?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Slovedon:
I was indeed doing a quick double press, but a long press (tried a lot of durations) isn't working either. I should have mentioned that I did try switching that setting, but no matter what it's on, double click doesn't do anything.

Downgraded from JB 4.3 to 4.1.2 - IMEI incorrect - I have a backup of EFS

Hey guys! I know there are some posts about this, but I could not solve it yet.

Firstly I did a backup (copied to exSD) of the /EFS folder, then upgrated from JB Stock 4.1.2 to JB 4.3. Everything worked well.

Then I downgraded from 4.3 to 4.1.2 and i got my imei with 0049... and serial 00000... and it can't connect to the network.

I followed the 9 steps recover imei manual, with the backup thatI have, but it didn't work.

I checked the problem that happens with Modem MG4 that changes the EFS partition format, but now i'm using stock JB 4.1.2 so thats discarted.

I noticed that when I copy or create from backup the nv_data.bin, and restart the device it seems that android OS overwrite the file with the one that has 0049.. any ideas about it?

In Service Center want to charge me $180 for restore my imei but I think it's ridiculous cause I have a backup that is supposed to work.

Please guys help what could be wrong?

Details of my device:

Galaxy S3 i9300

Jelly Bean 4.1.2 Movistar Ecuador Version.

Baseband: i9300UBELL1

Just because you're using "stock" now doesn't mean you haven't had a rom with mg4 before. You can't undo that. Try all the steps in my thread. Repair is about £20 so.....

I really didn't notice what was the baseband of the stock rom that I did the EFS backup so I guess it could be an MG4...

I'm on MF3 right now, but can I use ODIN to go back to AMDL, then root and install a different recovery? It seems that the answer is yes because I saw a thread to download ODIN with AMDL, and that AMDL will allow you to fully root with a custom recovery. Just wanted to confirm before I start down the path of no return. Just want to get the 4.3 Google Edition going on my SGH-1337.

I would like to know and I am sure others would like to know if there are any accessories For Wizard from Magician or Other compatible phones that work on both.

Coz its a new phone Usually accessories from other older phones in the same range or older models work, like those of Nokia compatibles.

Chargers, headsets, USB cables, Cases ( probly not coz of the size differance), Car kits or any thing that will connect and is usable.

Some of the items i have come across that work with other items but just coz it is branded to work on the Model makes you think only that is branded for that product, therfore will work but not other's thats why started this !!

p.s I cant wait for my i-mate K-Jam to arrive !!

So,I recently acquired a tf300t and went about trying to root,flash recovery etc. Turns out my bootloader is locked and the tool from asus doesn't work anymore. I'M on 4.2.1. 10.6.1.27.5 and every root method I've tried fails,motochopper,framaroot etc. So my question is this,am i stuck with the factory version of jb,or is there a way to get a custom rom on this thing with the locked bootloader? Correct me if I'm wrong,but i cant flash a recovery or anything else until the bootloader is unlocked??

[Transformer TF300T General] alexv59:
Dang I lost my detailed reply to you somehow. Okay, I'll do it again but much shorter this time since you seem to know your way around.

I do not have my tablet handy do I'll do the best I can. Check your firmware version. It is possible that your firmware is a recent version. ASUS has been known to block the ability to root when pushing out new firmware. I know this from experience as I had to go through a mountain of dung to root my 300. I was finally able to do it by downgrading to, 10.6.1.25.1 or something real close to that. It's the firmware that came out late July of this year. Once I downgraded to that version I was able to use the ASUS version 7 of the unlock tool.

Once unlocked the easiest way to root is to get TWRP V2.6 or newer and use fastboot to push the blob to your tablet. With the later versions of the OTA you can get the into fastboot mode by simply booting into the stock recovery which defaults into fastboot mode. Just make sure you're plugged in before going into the stock recovery. The beauty of TWRP 2.6 and up is that it will automatically install superSU for you. When searching for TWRP try going to the TWRP site so that you get the correct blob. You want the one specific to the Android version that is installed on your tablet. Read the descriptions carefully and be sure to use the .blob and not the .img.

I hope this is clear. I haven't slept in three days so I'm a little loopy :) so what may seem legible to me might not to you. Feel free to message me if you need me to clarify anything.

Best of luck. I'm off to bed.

EDIT I just read the op again and noticed that you are, in fact, on a newer FW than me so I'm inclined to believe that you may have to downgrade or wait tool ASUS puts an updated unlock tool.

[Transformer TF300T General] pyraxiate:
Nope you can root without having an unlocked bootloader.
[Transformer TF300T General] warhammer1966:
Not if you are on the latest firmware,as I am. Every root method I have tried fails on the new fw for some reason and the unlock tool doesnt work for it either. Thus,i cant do **** til asus releases an updated unlock tool..unless i can downgrade to an earlier version with the locked boot loader?? Thats the question....
[Transformer TF300T General] bigtoysrock:
Actually, im in the same situation your in. But I managed to gain root with motochopper.

How I managed it was do the first part of the downgrade, you then can get off the 27.5 which fails root. I ran the 10.6.1.15.3 from asus and it let me gain root. But now am still stuck with a locked bootloader.
[Transformer TF300T General] Blauwbilgorgel:

All you have to do is download FASTBOOT in any windows pc, download it from here

press and hold volume down + power button on your phone (to enter bootloader)

when in bootloader, enter fastboot mode by just hitting power key once,

now connect USB to pc and the phone

u'll see FASTBOOT PC written in your phone screen,

now go to the downloaded fastboot folder in ur pc,

hold SHIFT and Right click, Select OPEN COMMAND WINDOW HERE,

in the command window, just write : fastboot oem lock

That's it! :cowboy:
