hi guys, NOOB question.
I want to get an unlocked S III to use with Fido,
I can't figure out which model is best? T999 ? i9300? or are there any others?

If you want to you use LTE with fido you want to get the I747

If you want the quad core you get i9300
If you want the quad core with 2 GB ram you get i9305
I believe the i9305 comes with LTE too but it wont work with any of our carriers' LTE

Not sure about T999

Best bet is to get a S3 from Rogers so you dont even have to unlock it!

Ended up deleting Juice Defender just to see if it was causing my issue. Android System is down to 10% and my battery lasts longer :s

^T999 is for Wind/Mobilicity/T-Mobile

By back casing do you mean the battery cover?


I bought off these guys:
http://www.ebay.ca/itm/380464543043?...ht_2078wt_1109

For some reason pebble blue is twice the price of white
http://stores.ebay.ca/Trends-Beyond/..._sid=295063195

it's not official "OEM" but it has all the same markings on the outside (samsung logo) and fit/finish is identical. Plus it got to my house pretty quick

We learned the hard way, I guess everyone will have to go through the same thing lol.

I remember someone had posted a good write up in one of the cell threads re: task killers and how they actually do more harm than good.

On a side note, EAGERLY waiting Jelly Bean! Check 2x a day online to see if it's been released for my carrier lol. I just want Google NOW, that's all! Just give it to meeee!

mb_ 10-28-2012 07:45 PM

Why didn't I read that before - now I just wasted $5 for nothing :alone: :fuuuuu:

The lil phucks at Verizon have already gotten the update. My phone has been acting really funky and getting pretty slow. I've been having to restart a few times a day. I think it might be because of my intensive WhatsApp activity. I've got about 1,400 photos in just my WhatsApp media gallery.

Surprisingly the phone isn't even close to being full. Like I said, at least Jelly Bean will give me the illusion of being quicker!

If you're not using the stock cable, try that. Otherwise, try another computer to rule out your phone being messed up.

If another computer connects fine, try other usb ports on the original computer. If the other computer doesn't connect, check your phone drivers. I had this issue but reinstalling drivers seemed to fix it.

I usually delete all photos every couple of days.

Attachment issues...I'll end up backing them up to my computer when I get a chance to but I keep EVERYTHING. I can't explain why I just do.

MSN Conversations from far back as 2002.
Text Messages saved from my old Nokia N73 days lol.
Photos from every phone I've ever had.
I even have issues with throwing away receipts :s

Do I need them? Not immediately, but I do feel that I'll enjoy going through them some day in the future. Just recently I hooked up an older HDD into my computer and found pictures from YEARS ago that everyone forgot about. My friends and I had some good laughs looking at them and I'm glad I saved them back then.

Momax S Pack X-Level Battery 2100mAh + Smart Charger for Samsung Galaxy S3 i9300 | eBay

Has anyone bought an aftermarket spare battery yet? Looking to get one as I use my phone pretty heavily, and I don't always have a plug nearby.

Vansterdam 10-29-2012 05:01 PM

hey guys hoping someone can help me out here.

im planning on buying a samsung galaxy s3 from some guy on craigslist.

he says the phone is mint condition 10/10 and theres no water damage but for some reason the phone wont turn on.

hes tried a new battery and when plugged into the wall the red light does pop up indicating its charging or connected but still wont turn on.

this is the only info i got and im wondering if its fixable or if anyone knows what is wrong with it?

im getting it for preety cheap so wondering if its worth getting.

cho 10-29-2012 05:10 PM

mine does that sometimes only when the battery is super dead

i gotta plug it in for like 10 mins for it to get a charge to start it back up
