Thank you guys so much. Certainly saved me from having to buy a new phone.

Can you explain why that is so I'll know for the future?

(Posted this in General Help and How-to as well) So, I rooted my AT&T GS3 about 4 months ago, with the intentions to start getting into custom ROMs. But I never actually installed one, so I just have stock Android 4.1.1 on my rooted phone. Now, 4 months later, I get the notification to update...

So, I rooted my AT&T GS3 about 4 months ago, with the intentions to start getting into custom ROM's. But I never actually installed one, so I just have stock Android 4.1.1 on my rooted phone. Now, 4 months later, I get the notification to update to Android 4.2.1. I wasn't sure how that would go...

But I'm not running a special ROM right now, nor have I, ever. I simply rooted it, and then let it sit rooted. It still runs the original Samsung ROM.

Hey everyone, About 4 months ago, I rooted my AT&T GS3, with the intentions of putting CM10 on it. However, I've realized that I have no real need for a custom ROM, as my phone already does everything it needs to. In addition, I don't want to risk bricking my phone. Yesterday, I got the...

i have an ATT galaxy S3, and I just finished a nandroid backup. However, CWM Recovery is now giving me the option to restore the ROM I just backed up (which is a stock ROM, its my first time) or just reboot. What should I do? All I want is to return to my Stock Rom and continue using my phone...

Hey Guys, I have had the AT&T S3 for 6 months now, and I am thinking about rooting it and then putting CM10 on it. But, it won't be so easy, because: I have a Macbook Pro (which I think is sinful in the Android community. Think I should switch to PC?) I already put 4.1.1 on the S3. I'm not a...

These were yesterday's stats. Horrific. I let it die and then recharge last night, so we'll see what happens today. Please note that the third photo is not my total screen time, but I wasn't sure if I would remember to screenshot it before it died, so I took that with 9 percent left.

Guys, AT&T lets you upgrade after 18 months on contract. No chance I'm keeping this thing over 24 months. Battery life 5 years from now isn't an issue.

Alright, here are yesterday's screen shots. Battery was actually better than normal, but still pretty horrible. I shouldn't burn 70 percent of the battery with only 1.5 hours of screen time. It's not even like I'm playing really graphic intensive games. Nothing beyond like, Temple Run 2...

Anyone know how to put screenshots up on here? Sorry, first time using screenshots on the forum. Got about 1.5 hours of screen with about 30 percent left today. Not horrible.

At the end of the day today I'll upload a screenshot with battery stats. Don't get me wrong, the phone is awesome, it's just tough to nurse the battery all day long.

Hey all, I have had the S3 for about 4 months now, and while it is an awesome phone, I was just wondering whether or not I have something wrong with my battery. On an average day, I can get around 1.5 hours of screen time on a charge, with Data, GPS, Sync, and Bluetooth off. Brightness around...

Alright guys, I've got a problem. I have the ATT S3 running 4.1.1 and a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.6.8. Now, a few months ago, specifically right before I upgraded to 4.0.4, Android File Transfer worked without a problem. However, right after the update, the service stopped working, giving me...
