Ha, got a reply back about the Black S3. I asked when is the black version of the Galaxy S3 coming out and the reply said,

"What black version?"

My phone is not switching over from mobile data to wifi automatically when I am in range of my wifi . Is there any setting that needs to be applied?

Should be automatic. Try forgetting the connection and start again.

Nice shot!

Cheers

It's the best pano I've done in a while.

Someone earlier in thread mentioned their browser being darker than the rest of the phone, mine is the same. Like it auto lowers brightness when browsing. Is there a way to disable this?

Browser -> Menu Key -> Brightness and colours -> Colour level for power saving = default.

Well first remorse coming in now, own fault for not testing i guess. But my data on 3 is between 600k-1500k down on speedtest. Get 3500 on tmobile :/

Main reason i moved was due to 3 investing a lot into their data network :|

This is the recent apps switcher Should be mapped to a separate button, but I guess Samsung didn't get that memo

Have any of you come from an iPhone 4S to this phone? If so, what are your thoughts? Better/worse? Easy to get used to?

Is that the same insider that reported SAMOLED+ HD?

So what's going on there then?

Just saying that's as dark/best that it's going to look -imo. They are some horrible pics out there that make the Blue look bad.

Argh mine has 1cm scratch on the back panel. Carpy cheapo soft plastic

Still guess at least I should be able to get a new one on eBay if it gets any worse.

Still won't have the blue ones in though?

I don't know.

readion on the vodafone forums though, Vodafone have said they dont sell it pay as you go? So i guess it might be a store specific thing.

Also, someone said that a customer service lady told them that they would be very surprised if they didnt get their pebble blue one by the end of next week....

Seems like a few places now think they will get stock in next week.

More so as it apparently has no branding.

Amazon havent updated my order yet, still 20th June for Blue.

If Vodafone have Blue 32GB in next week its a done deal!

So I got one of these phones yesterday because my iPhone 4 was on its last legs. However I have been on iOS since iOS1 and I have never used Android.

I've learnt my way around the OS, how to transfer files, messed with the settings and rooted it by following a tutorial.

Now I would like to know what can I do with rooting? How do I change the shortcuts on the lockscreen? How do I remove useless bloatware? What is the best web browser / music player?

Hopefully someone can answer those questions
