    KitKat 4.4.2 Update now available for Galaxy S3 on Rogers

    I hope the WiFi problems 4.3 introduced are fixed. Almost 5 of the 6 friends I know who use this phone had WiFi start to randomly be "unstable" whether it was at work/school/home. Wiping partition cache, factory reset, nothing worked. Plus battery life took a hit last time with wonky charging as...

    [Closed] Win 1 of 2 Snapdragon? 800 Mobile Development Platform devices from Qualcomm and Android Central!

    Qualcomm is one of the pioneers of mobile processor development. Been using their processor powered phones for the past two years. The S800 seems like it will be a beast, and I'm excited to see just how much better it is from the current S600 and their older but great Snapdragon S4.

    Will the s4 top s3 sales?

    Well the massive success of the GSIII is either a benefit or a disadvantage. It means more people are comfortable using Samsung devices, more people believe Samsung is the best device manufacturer Android has etc. But it also means, tons of people are perfectly happy with their GS3's and not as...

    Samsung responds to Galaxy S4 storage woes

    My GS3 came with 11.95 GB of storage. Sure 2 gb less seems like a lot, but it is what it is. The ease of redownloading apps takes away a lot of the pain of keeping 1 gb+ apps on your phone, but let's face it, aside from a few intensive games, the majority of apps are from 20-200 mb+ etc. Get a...

    S4 outselling One by alot

    It's simple, Samsung is the world leader in electronics today. They have deep pockets and great marketing. Just like Apple did earlier, Samsung is doing now. That doesn't mean HTC or others should tremble. If anything, the HTC One has gained a lot of ground against Samsung as compared to last...

    How will you use your 50GB's of Dropbox?

    I don't think I ever used it on my GS3, no reason to use it with my GS4. You guys are overblowing the space issue. It's 2 gb less than what the GS3 had. Pop in a 32 gb MicroSD card for your files, movies, pictures, and save the 9+ gb for apps. Some games are huge, but most apps are within then...

    Verizon Store gives a hard time when trying to buy a Droid DNA

    Yup, they make very little on straight up phone sales. It's much better for them to get you to resign a new contract or to change your plan to one that costs more etc. As for why she tried that with your wife, it's a sexist salesman technique. Granted women are just as tech savvy as men these...

    Got a few international travel questions...

    I have a Galaxy S3, non-rooted from Rogers in Canada. I'm going to be doing some travelling overseas, primarily south and east asia for business. Usually when I travel overseas, I stay in the host country for a few months at a time and I usually get a local sim/phone to use. Since I won't be in...

    S-Planner icon on main weather widget on home screen...

    So I just noticed this today because my phone died and I charged it. When it was done, I noticed a small little JAN 1 icon on the main home screen weather widget. If you click it, it opens up S-Planner. Now I use Google Calendar because I thought S-Planner wasn't utilized properly but it's nice...

    S3's are dying after 150 days. No!!!

    At first I was worried, but then you compare the number of "dying" devices with the number produced and sold, and it means Samsung has a done good job mass producing it. It's not like the Xbox 360 where you had a 40% guaranteed failure rate of a launch unit. That said, I am almost hitting the...

    AT&T Jelly Bean Update FINALLY Available via Kies!!!!!

    Any ideas if backing up and then doing a factory reset will make me lose all my app data? I didn't 3 star all those damn games only to lose it. I feel like a lot of these bugs and jitteryness will go away with a factory reset.
