***The Official Samsung Galaxy S III Thread***

Excellent! There's a stock De-odexed ROM floating around too which is pre rooted etc. I might use this with that if OMEGA is buggy?
 
Quick Question - just ordered a Zenis Dock from fleabay and I was wondering how best to attach it to my pc and charge it at the same time, would a dual USB A 2.0 to 5 pin micro-B supply enough juice to charge the same as the samsung wall charger or near enough on a IP35 pro motherboard, as I would hate to have to keep swapping cables all the time.
 
Trying to move from a 4S to a S3 but one thing has really disappointed me which is the way Android handles HTML emails in the stock Email, Gmail or K9 apps. None of these apps resize HTML emails to fit the screen like the iPhone can.

I find the Gmail and K9 apps totally useless as you can't zoom in and out in HTML emails and when you swipe across the email to read it, it just goes to the next or previous email far too easily by mistake. I'm using a OcUK Mailing List email as a example!

The stock Email app isn't that much better either, you can't zoom out far enough to display the whole HTML on the screen and when I receive a new email and tap on the notification it just goes to last viewed page in the app not the new email itself, which is annoying.

Everything else seems to work great but I'm afraid just this problem alone is enough to make me want to return the phone as Email is a core service I use all the time, a great phone let down by its sheer lack of email capabilities :(

Edit: See what I mean below, on the Android one I have zoomed out as far as it would go!

My 'Pebble Blue' S3 next to the Black Millkin cover. It is so dark it might as well be Black.

Ill take a couple more tomorrow in daylight so you get a better idea of the colour.

How does the trim and home button look to you? Bother you that its not silver? Have heard that the button looks a diff colour to rest of the set too?
 
The trim looks a blue/silver colour but the home button is more Pebble Blue like in the photos that are floating about. Doesnt bother me at all tbh.

One thing that is annoying me so far are the adds that have cropped up already. Time to root it methinks :)


For those guys receiving blue ones are they pebble blue or the grey colour we've seen recently ?

Mine isn't Blue so I'd say I have one of these.

Well that took like less than 30 seconds to root my S3! Used http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27049363&postcount=2

Thanks for this. Took a bit longer than 30 seconds as I was treble checking everything to make sure I didnt break anything :)

In darker conditions, the pebble blue S3 looks so good. All phones look awful outdoors to me as you can see all of the fingerprints!
