Going back to CM10 nightlies after a few days with PA. It's an awesome rom, but the novelty of having tablet ui apps has worn off :)

I don't consider it as a novelty as it same as CM10 but with more control. You chose where to have tablet UI, for example if you don't like the split view in the settings, you can just increase the DPI for settings app and its back to normal.

Yes i've got that with mine. fantastic little box that i carry around with a fully charged spare battery. Swap the batteries over every now and then and plug it in to charge overnight. (means that i'm not charging the batteries as often, which will hopefully make them last longer) You can get a micro usb splitter that will allow you to charge both the phone and the spare at the same time.

If you do get a splitter how would you charge bothe the phone and battey at the same time?

Where would you plug the spare battery in? Also is this an origian Samsung battey?

I couldn't even see the settings app in the app list :p

edit: Found it. Even so, I'm not really using any tablet layouts in any of my apps. Not much use for me :)

You split the micro usb, one end goes into the spare battery charger, the other goes into the phone. I think mobilefun sell a micro usb spitter cable that would do the job. (i just use 2 cables if i ever need to charge both, which is very rare as i'm usually discharging one whilst the other charges) The other useful point is that you will be charging via the box more than via the phone so you are less likely to damage the micro usb port on the phone. (£16 for a new charger unit is a lot cheaper than getting the phone repaired)

The battery is genuine samsung and identical to the standard battery you get in the box with the phone. (incorporates nfc too)

You know, I don't even care any more that JB isn't out officially yet and even if it never came out I'd probably still not care! The S3 just runs circles around in ICS even though JB does give some improvements :p
 
About bloody time... I will be getting this via Kies today :D

I may swap to Wanamlite though once it is out. I had loads of ROM's on my Desire and I started getting annoyed with downloading and trying them all so I said I would never do it on the S3.... The lure is always there tho :p

I will have a look at Omega as well as people seem to like that. Can someone give me a third one to look at or, alternatively, what are people's top 3 S3 ROMs?
