No worries, unfortunately I used a code from ebay because I didn't know about the *#197328640# method at the time.
However the seller on ebay was extremely fast and provided the code within 30 mins of me buying it!

What's this unlock method
That's bad...some people are so caught up in the world that only Apple make smartphones.
My Mate was in a Supermarket the other day and some bloke came up to him and asked if the S3 he was holding was "Apple Galaxy?"
He gave him a look and walked away!
On another note I've bought the N4 late last week and have been using it, although it's a very good phone something's missing from it to the point that the user experience almost feels "soulless"
I can't put my finger on it but I feel that the S3 brings an all round user experience, little things like Smart Stay and other implementations that Samsung have placed in Touchwiz are just the icing on the cake.
The N4 is better built and looks classy but ergonomically the S3 is better to hold.
Sure the N4 will get all the updates first but Samsung hasn't been slouching on the update front and the latest 4.1.2 premium suite update brings a host of features to the S3 that give an enhanced experience.
Don't get me wrong the N4 is a great phone but I feel that the S3 is just a little bit better.
It's the 'real' home button
Look at page 552, I posted the method earlier #16551

Oh yeah! I forgot about the home button!
No not just yet stoosh - I've got my S3 setup just how I want it at the minute.
Once I get bored with it I will move to Pandoriam - just hate the thought of having to set everything up again.
I've had a play on Pandoriam 4.5 on my mates S3 - It's nice and all but all I really want is the blue status bar up top (just the signal/battery icons etc). Other than than that my S3 on stock (with root) is pretty perfect.
Do you know if in Aroma there is an option just to change the status bar and theme nothing else?

I know what you mean I too hate having to set everything else up again.
There isn't an option just to change the status bar and theme as you have install the rest of the ROM which has it extras.
I remember Nexus mentioning an app where you can change the status bar, I think it was called Statusbar+ or something similar.
I'm back on stock now as I'm waiting on Samsung to release 4.1.2, I wonder how long after the i9300 crew we will be?

Sorry Mate, yes that's right you can install the ROM and change the status bar and theme either with stock Samsung or with other themes. There's so many options included in the Aroma installer it can get quite confusing!
I might try v5 but will probably wait a week or two for Samsung to release 4.1.2 for our i9305.
Thanks Nexus, shame that these apps are buggy because the concept is spot on.
Would be great if he could do it that way, but I don't think it is possible and plus he would probably want to keep it as a separate app, easier to develop, problem/bug solve etc.
I did post in his widget locker and nova thread asking him to make one
But he probably never saw it 
So will try to email him and see if he has any plans on making one in the future 
Yeah I think the best thing for me to do is get CWM installed, make a Nandroid of my stock ROM/setup and then go have a play with Pandoriam
Good-luck - don't burn itSetting up linux on my laptop, gonna try and cook my own rom
Two quick pic requests please! Could anyone with the Titanium grey LTE S3 do a front shot with the screen off, and also a shot of the back please?
Does it have LTE logos on it like the one on the right here:

That's definitely a network thing not the handset.
