I was hoping we can get a prayer chain started to pray that Sprint doesn't butcher the upcoming Galaxy S3 (or whatever they end up calling it)?
lol.. you didn't really think this was going to be a serious thread did you???
Just thought this might be necessary after what they did to the OneX lol
Duhh everybody knows the sprint galaxy s 3 is gunna be called the samsung super duper universe phone

Well, may as well have fun for posterity. Name some specific ways they could eff it up and see if they either read XDA or if you just have a psychic infiltration. Or maybe if you spell it out here that will help us avoid it happening. ;-)

Anything but the 5250 processor, non-removeable battery, no microSD card. There, that should start off what they could screw up.
If they check those off on this phone, I'm getting it, without question.

Doesn't matter how cool the phone operates. Even LTE speeds will prove how garbage sprint is. Verizon always keeps them under the wing. I hate it.

Oh great Tech in the Sky, let the GS3 be all I can hope for, and please don't let the idiots at Samsung leave out an external SD card slot!!!

What do you mean by this? The only thing about the One X better than the Evo 4G LTE is the processor. Everything else about the E4GLTE is on par, if not better than the One X.

From what I heard, Sprint and Big Red have an advantage thanks to their CDMA networks. Korean networks run on CDMA LTE, so...with a bit of tweaking from Samsung, we could *possibly* have the quadcore GS3 on Sprint
As for AT&T and T-MO, their networks are more complex to support as they have a GSM HSPA+/LTE and what not, something that isn't yet implemented and supported by the Exynos chip, or the Tegra 3 chip for that matter.
So in theory, we *MIGHT* get lucky with the Exynos. Again tho, take it with HALF a grain of salt

Okay, enjoy your ****ty locked bootloader.

Motorola phones should be getting better since google bought them. I know people that have a razr and all of them love it and it is fast. It's just their ui that's weird. I'm a sense or aosp guy. I keep sense on my 3d but I love aosp ics on my epic

Hmm that looks nice. On screen keys smart. If the boot loader doesn't get locked down... I would think about it.

As one who really likes (needs) to have a physical keyboard, the big appeal for me is the 5th row of dedicated numerals. That was the deciding factor for me over the Evo shift that was available at the time. I would prefer another Samsung, and I would prefer an unlocked bootloader. But if something happened to my epic, and this was the only phone like this available, I would buy it.

For what it's worth, our Moto Rep told us about a month ago he had an inkling that their next flagship phone for us would be a QWERTY slider. Take that for what it is, but this would reaffirm it.

Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I know the Windows phones are the big question in a lot of Android users eyes these days but I have to admit the Note 2 is a demon and though it will be like holding a salami sandwich to the side of my head I can't ignore the specs which is why I got the GS3 in the first place. I will be watching but I think it's still too early to tell if I'll be racing to the store since the last purchase nearly made my car the bedroom.
I am going for the Smart TV next though (Samsung rocks).

Just ignore people like that man they have nothing better to do than cry about it not being in the Q&A and really if that is their biggest thing to worry about it should make you feel better for having real issues not trolling forums whining.
back on topic, i am debating getting that or the one x+ if it comes out around the same line cant decide yet note 2 has a good lead though huge screen is right up my ally but pockets are getting too full to fast
I'd love it but I couldn't bring myself to rock it as a phone. Just too big.

The note 2 is a downgrade from the gs3 in terms of hardware. No way I'd downgrade. I had an international note and it wasn't in my top 5 best phones. I've had every high end phone too. I won't be getting rid of my s3 for one unless it has a huge dev community which I don't foresee.

That's interesting. It's about time the exynos supported lte and hspa+ 42. I bet that thing is gonna be a battery hog even with that huge battery. I'll be interested to see how this phone lands. If it's like the s3 and all the versions are similar then dev should be great. We will see.

I don't mind now that I see the purpose of separation. I guess...
What would that purpose be? So they can have the AT&T logo in the bar as well?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
on mine (Verizon version), there isn't really a gap, it just leaves the 4G icon, but the data arrows aren't
I think I see what OP is talking about, it separates the toggleable/changeable items from those that are permanent.
I don't know if that was intended or this is a bug and that is just coincidence, to me it almost looks like instead of hiding the 4g icon or w/e ATT just put a black square there so when on wifi the space for that 4g icon is still reserved.

If it was meant to be like that, then I see no reason why it would happen only when on wifi.

Wait, what? So I'm supposed to "not care" about it? I mean... I can live with it, and I'm certainly not returning my phone because of it... but I'd definitely rather not have it there. It's annoying. It's almost (highlight on "almost") like the virtual version of getting a stained device, would you not care about a stain ?
I too think it's the 4G icon becoming all black. I don't like it either.
Were lucky we can remove, adjust, flash and customize our phones , when I had my first cell phone back in 93 customizing it hahahahaha, not even in the same ball park, I had a better chance of flying to the moon. Yes we had carrier logos blastered all over our phones. If you don't like it take the frigging phone back and buy an iphone
Xbox one, well look at it at Microsoft's view point. Windows 8 is a total bust! The only item left that makes the big bucks is the Xbox, Xbox live , at this point if they planned on releasing the Xbox one with all the original requirements, people would flocked over to the ps4, leaving Microsoft as the new IBM, just my opinion

right. I was referencing at the "feeling" of it, not to any specific comment. that's why I didn't quote anyone. but if you ask me, then no, I would not care so much that I wouldn't buy the phone. As a matter of fact, I did not care so much. I knew about it before I got the MotoMaker card at the AT&T store.
I would have probable had second thoughts, had I known about the camera, though... but I think I would have still bought it.
