Just got my S3 - Galaxy S III General

Whats up guys? Just got my Black S3 today, I already rooted and installed a custom rom [Carbon]. Everything seemed pretty simple. I was wondering if you guys had any tips for me or any advice that would help out? Anyway, glad to join this community, coming from HTC One S.

Hey,
You could always try these mods out for a better battery life,
Well if you have a international one anyhow,

Interesting, I would much rather have this color of phone than the other one, however I dont mind that color either.
Not the best quality but it seems darker.

Yeah, its funny- all these guys upgraded to Gnex or GS3, then come back to the Epic thread to argue about hardware and complain about the noobs, trolls and flamers on the other threads. Might as well get a f**k**g iPhone....

But none of their complaints pertain to the phone... the only remorse I see is that they now have an entire pack of looneyrats to deal with, and I completely understand that sentiment

Whenever my 6 year old gets upset about anything, I tell her "Don't panic, and carry a towel". That (usually) seems to help

Then I'm guessing the thread title made no sense to you either - they're all references to an amazing series of books that started with The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I highly recommend reading all of them - so much better than the movie
Or even better, try to find audio of the original radio broadcasts...

From what our friends who have moved on have reported, it seems like his entire family uses either a Gnex or an SGS3

You spend more time with your phone than your s3? Lol, you really do have it bad.
3 weeks ago, i walked into my fav store JB Hi FI, as i was browsing through the store i noticed in the corner of my eye something so beautiful and sexy, i walked up to this wonderful girl and said excuse me i dont mean to be upfront or rude but can you please move your ass cause your blocking the view of the samsung galaxy s3 i am trying to woo. she obliged and walked away. i then finally got my hands around the phone and oh my goodness, that moment was the best moment i have ever had, so i forked out $770 dollars and paid for the beautiful device, then went home with a big smile on my face to see my wife with a big angry look saying ' i just checked the account, you son of a ***** how could you spend $770 on a stupid phone, what are you stupid, that moment i felt in JB HI Fi has gone forever and it will never come back
That Is my moment guys
P.s - Im Full Of **** And this is a stupid Thread And Must Be Deleted !!

Some people get butthurt at little comments that don't really mean anything. Though i do understand what everyone is saying is not fair.
So maybe we should take it easy on him and tell him. ''Really i didn't know thank you'' But here is the problem we have been using it for more than over a week now.. Anyway it did make my day when i first read it. I forgot to thank him for it he deserves it..

To clarify (cause no one has been very clear about it in this thread, to be fair) the generic version of Jellybean for UK, along with virtually all network variants have all been available for weeks.

it also has rules against pointless posts.
Pointless posts contribute more garbage to the forum than pointless threads.
It also puts people at risk of getting fired. Remember people, in this modern society, your online profile can quickly get tracked back to you, and some companies don't take kindly to employee's who reflect badly on their place of work.

Coincidence?

Hi , guys , when I saw the wallpaper of the S4 I freaked out, look what I have for you:laugh:, I took this one myself comming back from holidays and they are quite similar. I have it on facebook.
