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

No. Post you tube sample!

Sorry, just played it through media player and it seems OK now, a lot less noise although i can hear the camera focusing but i guess that's normal.

Km player is awful though, sounds like being in a wind tunnel even though i was just in my garage in silence!
 
When recording you can tap the screen to lock AF. If you install Jelly Bean you get much better audio as well.
 
I have a S3 and coming from iPhone 4, android took a bit of getting used to. Finally understanding that it's all about customising your phone rather than using it as stock as compared to iOS I'm starting to enjoy it more.

I know the jelly bean is not officially out yet but what are the the other ways of getting it on the phone and what is the advantage of having it now compared to when it's officially released?
 
The advantage of having it now is that your epenis extends somewhat :p

Also the camcorder is better, the notifications are better and power efficiency seems better too.

You'd need to root to install it though unless you install a stock build from sammobile using Odin which doesn't require root.
 
After about 7 hours my battery was at 50%, I drained it in another 4 hours to 0%.

In them 4 hours the screen was constantly on. Is that normal?
 
Updated to 3.8 Wanam, has tweaks to memory and CPU as well as secure kernel which should play better with certain apps/features I guess (allshare cast).

JB Domination is still working since it's still LIB.
 
mrk, if you get chance, could you install widgetlocker on wanam and tell me if it works every time you wake the phone? half the time it just wouldn't work for me :( I'd press a button and either see the stock lockscreen or the homescreen :(

Not sure if it's JB related or if it's just my phone having some sort of breakdown lol
 
If I was able to store photos to sd card with this nexus rom it would be perfect
Do you think, when they update it when jb is officially released this option will become available ?

Also

What's the simplest way to go back to stock from nexus rom ? Restore the backup i made via cwr ?

Just re installed the paid version and it seems to wake up the phone just phone every time!
 
That's weird... Ok, fair enough, guess my phone just wasn't happy with it - maybe something I restored didn't agree with WL

Thanks for testing mate, appreciate it

It's really annoyed me that you can't move apps to sd card
Do you think it's been deliberately done or could they fix it in jelly bean
 
There's no need to move any apps to the SD card?!

Unless your talking about huge games? If so you can use directory bind to move big apps to the SD card.
 
When you've got a couple of games like Dark Knight Rises @ 1.8GB, Asphalt 7 @ 1.4GB... Then a full system CWM backup @ 2.9GB it's pretty easy to fill up 16GB!! I've only got 1.2GB free on my internal

(I only have a 2GB card so moving the backup isn't an option yet...)
 
Seems theres a fair bit of interest over on XDA about porting the multiwindow features of the NoteII over to the SGS3. Not sure how useful it would be on the smaller screen, but I'd love to see it done!
