New Galaxy S II Models

I've read that there could possibly be a 1.4GHz S II, an NFC S II and a Tegra 2 S II. If there's gonna be a load of other models could this hamper external development for the current S II? If a newer version is released for the US then i guess all development will be on that version and hardware differences could mean incompatibility with the current model. What do you think? Here's a link to an article on the rumoured 1.4GHz S II.
http://www.gsmarena.com/the_galaxy_s_ii_cpu_might_be_boosted_up_to_14ghz-news-2824.php

There are already Tegra 2 Models with a lesser quality screen.
NFC models were announced from the very beginning but no one has yet to see one, they are believed to be thicker. We have reason to believe that the NFC chips are actually present in all of our phones but are software disabled.
As for the 1.4ghz model, this is just pure rumour and speculation based on the industry expects samsung to do something to compete with the iphone 5. If the rumours turn out to be true then all they need is a firmware update to overclock our phones, it won't be a whole new model, more a new batch with latest firmware. I don't expect there to be a 1.4 model though, its not needed.

Can this thread be closed by a moderator as there is already a thread with the same subject matter as this one.

I hope that's the case. I can't find in depth details about the Tegra 2 model just speculation. Do you know the model number?

There's no Tegra 2 yet, and probably won't be at all.

Edit: Didn't go on the link because it takes too long on 3g.

The age old LCD screen quality is probably HIGHER than unproven sAmoled+. The screen technology is different, and screen contrast and saturation are "subpar" comparing to SAmoled+.

LOL! I know what you mean! I never really liked the form factor of any of the nexus series phones. But thats just me. I do however really LOOOOVE the design of the Galaxy S series ( captivate, infuse, sgs2 and Note) I already played with the Samsung media player at Best Buy which is exactly the same form factor as the Note with the exception of the pen, and immediately thought to myself, this can definitely work for me.
Im hoping the note is 199 on upgrade, and not 250 though!

Perfect, just in time for my upgrade.

Eh, I'll wait for something else or the SGSIII.

ohi fully agree and understand what your saying lol

Upgrade your galaxy s3 hardware :P

I wish there is way to upgrade your s3 As in add an extra 1gb ram to the mother board of your phone, I mean if some of the galaxy have 2gb I would say there is room on the board for more.... Hmmmmmmm I wonderr

http://www.mlivetech.com/2012/06/28/samsung-galaxy-s3-is-getting-ram-upgrade-for-jelly-bean/
This article was out June 28th What ever happen to the international with 2gb RAHHHH

here is the thing:
if samsung decides to upgrade ram they have two options, to release new model I930x with identical hw as I9300 but 2 gigs of ram OR keep it I9300 and call back in ones with 1gb of ram and replace em for free (second option isnt gonna happen anyways). however if first option happens and I9300 doesnt get android 5.0, how hard is it actually going to be to port roms with only one more gb of ram...in best scenario roms will be universal, just maybe small kernel difference

Why wouldnt it be possible for NON-Samsung engineers to update themselves?
Do u mean it will be possible to get the roms from the " i930X" phones and put them on the i9300 ?
And what do u mean android 5.0 isnt JB 4.1.1?
Another quick question my freind was wondering if they can have the same software on our SG3 in his SG2? If it is a yes is it just a simple flash if yes where would u get the flash file

why would you want to make changes to the motherboard when you can simply "DOWNLOAD MORE RAM"
Honestly, if you want a good laugh visit this site http://www.downloadmoreram.com/ make sure to read their blog which shares experiences of people who have used it

He's on about the next update after jb which looks like it's going to be key lime pie

may God have mercy on you...since you certainly deserve much needed tech savvy'ness...most people in this forum...already have S3 so I doubt anyone will be looking to buy haha...

I thought of the same idea: RAM upgrade for samsung galaxy s III.
Will it be hard to swamp RAM like how we do on laptops?
Wish it could be done like that!! Buy extra 2 RAM and plug it in.

If you are looking to be banned you are going about it the right way.
Stop trolling these forums, sell the phone if you don't like it and stay in the XS forums.
Nobody cares if you don't like the phone or not, I don't know why you don't understand that.

Yeah ok go buy a new phone...give me the cash and i will...
We're not all businessmen around here with billions of dollars,some of us made sacrifices to get that device...

open your s3 , stick a 4gb ddr3 chip inside and try booting it it may work

Hey Guys, I just exchanged my Quad Core Exynos chip with Intel 16 core i10 chip with 5 GB RAM...the local tech guy was very kind and also agreed to add 1 TB of extra memory to go with the 16 GB of internal memory...
All at just 99.99 $..I am very happy now..
I future I am thinking of buying more electronic products from Idiot Electronics..
don't believe me? Just check it out in the nearby stores..

By the way can anyone please tell me how do I switch on my phone????

International Galaxy S3 LTE edition

Hi,
Sammbile.com talk about International Galaxy S3 LTE (GT-I9305) running Jelly Bean.
It actualy run with XXDLH9 firmware.

Yes I have seen it on a few websites I9305..... Will probably be released in a couple months

But have you seen the video on sammobile.com about it ? I can see (while stopping the video and if my eyes work fine) firmware baseband XXDLH9 but kernel date doesn't match with the last leak available today. (Aug Wed 22, ... 2012)

Here's link for anyone interested in the hands on video.
I'd like to think that it means that the current S3 JB release is getting nearer

Im in australia and I dont care if its european if it is capable on our networks which it would be im not gunna b happy

Im a bit confused too..
BUT
If they fix the homescreen redraw problem in the official JB release for the i9300 then the current 1GB is enough for me.
Okay, my gs3 will store less app in the background, but quad core cpu is fast enough to open them again.

http://pdadb.net/index.php?m=specs&id=3789&c=samsung_gt-i9305_galaxy_s_iii_lte_eu

32GB?

My only concern is the this device doesn't have a micro SD card slot and the max memory currently announced is 16GB. I can be almost sure that there will be a 32GB version but the question is when. How long do you guys think it will be before a 32GB version of the Nexus 4 is available?

Wow, what an original thread......

Yeah. I think we should all just wait for the next Nexus, it might have an micro sd slot...
