Excellent thanks mate.

My cousin has purchased an S3 which is locked to T-Mobile. Whats the easiest and quickest way to unlock it to all networks? I can't find that voodoo s3 sim unlock app that was floating around a few weeks back.

Apparently does not work since July due from updates stopping it working.

Bit of a bug, the YouTube app moves the video about a third of the way up the box if I rotate from portrait to landscape, then back to portrait again in CM9.1. Does anybody know of a fix?

Black S3 looks like a finger print magnet, I'm thinking the blue looks better now!

hi

can anyone tell me when i attempt to logout of the facebook app it says it will remove all data and so on?

I logged out and when I log in again I had to select all syncing options again.

It seems like its designed that you should stay logged in all the time.

can anyone shed any light on this.

cheers

What roms do you guys use? I've been using Android Revolution for a while now but with the 6.0 my wifi is crap and never works...

 

[sunlitsix]

I've not had any wifi issues with AR 6.0 (full wipe etc)!, seems a lot nicer to use than Omega too.

Damn I am getting an itchy trigger finger for installing the latest JB leak.... Any problems with it apart from the KB (I use stock anyway)?

The keyboard issue isnt an issue. You just need to do a wipe. I use Swiftkey personally.

 

[AndyCr15]

But if you're not rooted, surely a wipe is quite a big hurdle? (I'm quite new to not being rooted )

Why? Use the toolkit. It's as easy as 1,2,3! It can even remove root and reinstall the stock ROM for you in 1 option for warranty purposes. It literally took me 10 minutes and I wasn't rushing.

 

[AndyCr15]

I've not tried the tool yet. I guess I'll give it a go in the morning.

Mind you, I can cope on stock keyboard...

Sorry, which toolkit?

[SpaghettiOs]

Did you guys use CF-root or toolkit to root? CF-Root certainly seems easier/less risky, but I can't decide if the extras of the toolkit are necessities (busybox etc.).

 

[iMacMart]

Is it easy to unlock these handsets? Thinking about getting one but will need to unlock it...


Also no news on when jb might be released?

[kona786]

Is there an official release date for the Black S3?

Rumours are early-mid October

 

[Scythian]

Official sources tell us it's "very soon".

Official sources tell us it's "very soon".

OK so could be a few days/weeks worse case....

Thanks

General question for you S3 owners, if you tap the top of the phone near the speaker/front camera area, does it rattle? - Mine started making a rattling noise anytime i tap the front of the screen yet everything appears to be working fine and no adverse affects as of yet.

Also the ear piece metal part, is any of yours raised on the right hand side compared to the left side, or again is that just my handset.
