Ireland/UK Samsung Galaxy SIII Discussion Thread - Galaxy S III General

Thought I'd follow the trend and make one of these. As always, please follow the forum rules which are really just common sense.
The reason it's Ireland and UK rather than just Ireland is because I barely ever see Irish users on here, and many Irish networks are also in the UK too.

Funny enough being from the UK I don't recognise the US government, which means I don't recognise there laws, so therefore if this does get past I would recommend you move to a European host, and tell the US to go swivel. Tim Berners-Lee invented the internet (WWW), the Americans implemented it. however they certainly don't own the internet because of that, I think the US are over stepping there international boundaries with this idea, they have no right to this, hopefully this will stay in the US and everyone will just go international leaving the american internet dead.
the U need to stop protecting companies with outdated business model in the 21st century. Pirating will still happen as SOPA will only offline URLs not IP addresses, oddly enough i think Torrent users are quite aware of IP addresses... anyways...
Today is they day guys, let's hope for the best.

Always have and always will, can't agree with you more. Hopefully their citizens can knock some common sense to their government
Hi, I would like to help stop this evil SOPA and PIPA but as a UK resident I cant do anything, this bill would change the internet as we know it, and is yet another restriction of our personal freedom. I hope that it doesn't get passed. Hope Ron Paul is successful too.

XDA giffgaff thread.

So, I decided to make this thread for anyone here at XDA with questions concerning giffgaff, who don't want to go to the giffgaff community.
You could live abroad and have questions on giffgaff, or you may just have a question.
I am an avid community member, and I am often updated with information.
Sorry if this isn't allowed, but I don't see why it shouldn't be.
Maybe get it stickied?
Thanks,
Liam
I opened a giffgaff thread myself a while back but it got closed by Archer because this is a development site, not a place to push commercial enterprise. ( His words, not mine)
I'm sure this one will have the same fate.

The German S III Thread

Here the thread for the germans of us
Moin Leute, ich hoffe doch, dass es hier ein paar gleichsprachige gibt.
Indeed I have seen many germans here around!
But you know what?
You have to read the forum rules!
Only english is allowed here...
I suggest you if you still want a germam thread a forum like android-hilfe.de for instance.

you are correct, you can have a German I9300 user thread, but the language should be English (as for instance in the Indian thread).
Yeah keep it English!! Haha even though English comes from German!
Besides just joking here! Waiting for the 4.2.2 for the s3
Sent from my GT-I9305 using xda premium
Yeah, right! Let's open a german thread! And another one for italian. An another for russian. You know what?! Let's open threads for every single country in the world!!
Seriously, take a step back and think about your "suggestion". I never understood why the indian needed a seperate, extra thread for themselves. Look at all the other device forums, you'll see in every Forum an indian users thread. My intention is not racism nor discrimination. I just think that such behaviour leads to some sort of splitup in the community as it does in society. The germans will understand this problem in particular, see "Integrations- und Migrationspolitik"...with this in mind, please don't!
There is http://www.android-hilfe.de/samsung-galaxy-s3-i9300-forum/ and http://www.handy-faq.de/forum/samsung_galaxy_s3_forum/ so why do we need a german thread or maybe even a german sub forum?

By the way, the whole point in having a country-specific thread is to make sure that you can communicate about where you bought the phone, about the warranty of shops, where you can get the S3 in the cheapest place, about mobile networks in Germany, etc. There's a million things you can talk about so it's perfectly fair for people to create threads based on the country they're living in. No harm comes to anyone!
I'm not German so I'll just go away now and leave you lot to talk.

Wow, finally a german thread
i think, that those threads not so bad, you will find a lot more of knowledge here than in other forums, mainly because they point often to this forum and in those threads for a certain language, it might be possible to ask/answer somethings in german or indian in addition to english
Don't think so! The language on this forums is english, so stay with english! If you can't speak english then you should visit android-hilfe or handy-faq. Don't visit android-pit...Anyways, everyone on xda has to act within the rules and one of them is speaking/writing in english!

Why not ask in that specific thread?
Because it's more likely to get a wider audience as a new thread, if you have no input, why comment?

Let me rephrase that - since I have no idea about your specific ROM I can not say if it is a problem very specific to that or if you are another clueless guy who did not care to read the rules of this forum starting with the first one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/announcement.php?f=2494
Maybe I am clueless, maybe I don't spend enough time trolling other peoples posts? If you've nothing constructive to offer then why bother? Asking why I've asked the question is totally irrelevant if I've already asked it! Don't you have some star trek annuals to alphabetise or something?
And yes I did read the rules, but like most people on here I'm not infallible, is forgetting a simple rule a hanging offence? The problem here is someone with nothing better to do than pick up on others mistakes! A petty one at that.. If I wanted trolling I'd of asked on twitter, seems I made the mistake of thinking most people on here were helpful rather than critical..
Use uTorrent, I see you are using the Vuze client which causes issues with some models.
aTorrent is the best client by far!

HTC one M8 gay and lesbian users

This thread is to dedicated to gay and lesbian users of the greatest phone ever made, the HTC one M8.
This is not a geographically divided thread like the American / Canadian / Indian / Phillipines / Mexican / Mongolian / Vatican City / Antarctican users thread.
This is for the ones who think differently or similarly so as to speak. And how they feel about it.
I like the chamfered edge around the device, it looks sexy especially when looked at an angle. Like the lights at a night club bouncing off of it.
And the smooth sexy back.
As well as two separate trays taking a nano Sim on one side and a micro SD card on the other, how ingenious. Come to think of it, you can probably fit in two nano Sims, going by the modular size of the hole on the left edge and the rather wide tray.
Yes
..finally
I can say
Wtf!!!

While your at it, add seperate ones for white people, black people, asian people and so on!
Where all frickin human OP!! Why is their a need for a thread based on someones sexuality?
Humanity will never get over differences among them if they keep bringing it up and separating themselves.
I think the reason for the other countries is because they have different variants and devices then other countries in some cases...

You do realize having a thread solely for people of a certain sexual orientation is just as bigoted as having one that excludes them...

I right, you have a sense of humour I didn't understand.
I do agree with the whole country thing, but sometimes it's not a bad idea, where people can share offers, deals and delivery feedback in their country.
I'm bisexual, and I think this thread is unnecessary.

Some countries have slightly different hardware/firmware that is not entirely compatible with USA/Canadian versions so I think some country specific threads are of use.

Ok, this thread will be closed. And I will explain why.
Phones and devices, do not have sexual preferences. And because XDA is a development site, it doesn't have these preferences either.
XDA is a multi-cultural non-biased site. To have a thread that is labeled or restricted to "any" specific orientation, goes against what XDA is.
Understand, XDA is about development and helping others. It's not a social network. Plenty of sites across the net for that type of social interaction.
So with that said, according to XDA policy concerning the aforementioned, I will close this thread.
Cheers
MD
