Just dint unlock your overloaded and your safe. There currently isn't a reason to unlock it as there are no custom time yet. Many are bricked because people are just testing the waters. Phone is awesome you car go wrong

The only reason people brick there phones is because they dont take there time, they rush into things and before they know it ....... brick
Sent from my R800i using Tapatalk
Well tnx for all the answers, so if i buy 1 and i get the actualization theres no chance of a brick? And well ill not let my atrix, i love it even when battery issues, if i buy the xperia will be for gaming only cause i dont have psp anymore and psp ngp will be in my hand like in 7 or 8 months
Edit: what i get actualizing from stock, theres any improvment
Edit 2: anybody know wich one is the xperia play model that works in latinanerica with the 3g?

I have a rogers xperia play.
If I gingerbreak (root) it and get a software update will it get bricked?
Can't I use Sony Ericsson tools to recover it if it gets bricked?

then you must get the 800a or 800at versions, i've got the 800a off ebay on rogers launch day
check on ebay, there are a lot of phones listed after the google i/o, since they gave away more than 500 phones.

Hi guys,
The lucky ones who already got SGS3/SGS3 LTE, please share ur feedback, suggest the place where we can find better deals, etc.

Just a little heads up that the phone is slightly curved on the outer rim around the screen so screen protector might not stick nicely around the edge due to the gap cause by the curve.

I'll be staying in Singapore for 6 months, does anyone know if I can get a good deal on this phone through a contract for 6 months (or even paying for a 1 year contract that I wont use half of)?
Would the phone then work with T-mobile when I come back?

Yeah, today I have used SGS3 and it was pretty cool, It wasnt as good looking as Xperias but its NOT ugly by any means..brilliant screen, smooth scrolling, no lag whatsoever..
Going to buy in couple of weeks, waiting for some price drop
I will skip Xperia this year!!!

Hi SG peeps! Just here to join the party Phones bought here in Singapore should work with any carrier in the world (of course it wont work on 4G) cus all the phones here cannot be locked to carriers according to some rules i heard awhile back. im undecided between sIII or the Nexus (yeah i know huge spec difference) but the ease of unlocking and hacking is a huge win!
Rooting the SGS3
Hmm... has anyone roots their SGS III in Singapore? I am gonna do that in the weekends^^

Does anyone here have an extra play that they could lend to @mikeioannina? He us going to build 4.2 for us and 3.4 kernel but needs a play to do so. He did not ask me to make this thread I just thought there s got to be some people around here with an extra one hanging around (it didn't have to be fully working) that also want 4.2. I only have one or else I'd send mine. But I would love to see 4.2 on our plays and I'm sure many others would as well so if you have an extra please contact him about it

No he's in Greece but I don't think he cares about what model it is since he's making a version for CDMA and gsm. Maybe he would be willing to pay for shipping if you sent him it? Try pming him and see what he says

^ expected next month though PH pro'lly get it may-jun. expansys-ph has it on their "coming soon" section already. i've seen the z1 compact on kimstore, cmk & expansys-ph. btw, that language is technically not allowed here, bro
i'm thinking of getting the z2 as well to replace the one on my sig, especially if globe offers this on postpaid. but for me, it's really a toss up between this and the oppo find 7 qhd version - similarly spec'd but bigger (and pro'lly better) screen and a bit more cheaper for the US$599 price tag at launch
Xperia Z1 Compact is now available on Xperia stores. Just saw it yesterday in Megamall.

US carrier will support the phone but they will not ( or maybe ) provide the phone as contract ( or without contract ).
I already have the phone with T-Mobile and I'm living in US.
Enjoy the phone for another month or 2 before the Z3 comes out.

It's kinda a good news, think about the freedom you're gonna have to unlock the bootloader, custom ROMs, etc. i don't really care about carrier provided phones anyway. I've been using unlocked/imported phones for many years.
