    AT&T Galaxy S3 - rooting s3 4.3

    I hear you. I have the same questions. I think we'll have to give it some time so devs can figure it out... Or maybe they already have! Not sure. :)

    AT&T SIII Looses signal. Doesn't come back after reboot.

    Yes. I have an Otterbox Defender. But it's never caused problems before, and even removing it from the case doesn't fix the issue when it happens.

    AT&T SIII Looses signal. Doesn't come back after reboot.

    I haven't ever messed with the APN Settings. And just to be sure, I went in and reset the settings. However, I'm still having terrible signal stability and occasionally loosing it all together. Even when I'm in my home with a signal booster.

    Lost/Stolen Samsung Galaxy S3?

    As of 2.3 (I think), apps can NOT turn GPS on without root access. I guess they changed it to help with privacy and battery life. But it is frustrating if you lost your phone and can only get a Cell or Wi-fi location. Personally, I have Cerberus on my non rooted S3 and Rooted Nexus 7. For about...

    AT&T SIII Looses signal. Doesn't come back after reboot.

    Hello, I apologize if this has been answered, but I didn't see another thread on this problem. I have an AT&T S3 running 4.1.2 (Insert rant about AT&T software updates). Recently, (Within the past week) my phone would loose signal. Sometimes rebooting would resolve the issue; Sometimes...

    ATT Galaxy S3 is getting the 4.1.2 update today

    Don't worry. It was about dial up speed at my house too.. And we have about 20 Mbps. I guess they had A LOT of S3s updating at the same time. Lol.

    S III Battery life...

    You shouldn't have trouble. Remember back up your things just in case! And I agree with the above answer.

    S III Battery life...

    That's great! Except losing pictures. You said you use a task killer, I recommend doing a Google search "Do I need a task killer?". The way Android works, you shouldn't need one unless you have a misbehaving app. Check it out for yourself. On a side note I think I will be doing a factory...

    Screen half white, and half yellow?

    Thank you. Mine is the red one. However it isn't a red tint. Lol. Just an uneven yellow. :-) I Did do some searching, but couldn't find my problem specifically. I will have to try again later. Thanks again, Lane

    Exchange Services chewing up Battery - Seriously?

    Could it be constantly checking for new mail instead of using push like Gmail? That's the first thing that I thought of.

    Screen half white, and half yellow?

    Hello, I got my ATT SIII late November. Since then, I have noticed that my screen is quite yellowish on the bottom half, and almost white on the top half. This is more noticeable when reading text, and when the screen is dim. It is enough to make me notice on some colors too. I have insurance...

    Strangely enough though, the screen still lights up a little bit when it is on a black screen. But so little so, that I can only notice it if I am in a very dark room. I wonder why this is.

    Dear Samsung/AT&T...KIES SUCKS! Come to think of it Windows does too.

    I hate it too. I had to use it to update a jelly bean on my older Windows XP machine, it froze and just before I was about to terminate the process it resumes updating the phone... Scary. Also, after while it stopped connecting properly on the same machine, so I had to install it on my parents...

    AT&T ISIS

    I personally don't want to have to use ISIS. I got a N7 and Google wallet worked perfectly , even without WiFi. I live about three hours away from Austin. I am not going there for a sim card. Is there a place that we can ask AT&T to stop blocking the competition?

    S III Battery life...

    It does turn green. But only when the signal is near perfect.I just checked mine. And it has a green spot. Mine wakes up quite a bit when the screen is off too. But if you look at your chart, it goes down at a pretty constant rate. Suggesting that whatever it is is always on.
