i have had complaints from friends that i have taken pictures of. they complain that the flash bothers their eyes. i love how it handles low-light photos, i just wish that the lag between pressing the shutter button, and taking the actual photo was less. as it is, non-flash photos are nearly...

is there a way to use the GS3 on 3G instead of 4G? i don't like how much of a battery suck 4G is, and i'd rather have it on 3G when i don't need the data speed. is there a way to only have it on 3G, or hspa+, or something to that effect? not seeing anything in the menus, and i'd rather not dig...

i have both an iphone4, and the GS3. just switched, and although i do love the GS3.. one thing that people are discounting, is the overall quality of the experience. for me, android is still not as smooth and polished as iOS. i love the variety of features, and the options, but overall, iOS...

not having much trouble with my radios. am coming from an iphone4 too, and am having the same 4/5 bars that i did there as well. only now, i have LTE data speeds of 20+mb/s download to go with it. no dropped calls yet, or troubles getting calls to connect. maybe it has to do with your area...

thanks for your response, but i am still a bit unsure. guess i'll just have to try and find out :( hope it's not running on top though. i'd much prefer my device have as few extraneous processes running as possible. the K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple, Stupid) method at work!

Sorry to necro the thread, but it seemed to be the only one that answered my question. However, it lead to me having another. In ios, when you install UI tweaks (using dreamboard which is essentially a new launcher), it sets it up on top of the stock UI (launcher), is this the same in android...

Re: Walked in to Best Buy..walked out with blue GSIII!!! No pre-o i just walked into an AT&T store, and they told me that it's not out yet. what a gyp lol have any of you been able to do it?

i agree that if you wait for the latest and greatest, you'll end up waiting forever, but my point is to not jump on the end of development cycles. an example is last year - i bought a laptop with an i7 sandybridge processor. i knew that ivybridge wasn't going to be a huge performance leap, so...

lol. this wasn't intended to be, but it may be close to it. i agree that LG needs to step their game up, especially with the new wave of devices on the horizon. hopefully, they take a lesson from HTC's playbook, and focus on flagship products, instead of playing the field. make it simple, and...

couldn't agree more. for those with the patience of saints, there's phones with stellar specs on the horizon, and they're coming sooner than people think. oddly enough, android tablets hold little-to-no interest for for me at all. apple just has their feet planted far too solidly in that...

like most of you, i can't wait to get my hands on my GSIII. however, i am not a big fan of the Touchwiz UI. i kind of prefer the Sense 4.0 interface. I know that there are tons of roms out there to do one thing or another, so my question to you, is... what rom are you going to use, or is...

ouch. yeah. i am paying full price for my GSIII. my contact isn't up until the end of the year, and i'd rather spend that update to get the latest and greatest of next year, than spend the money to upgrade early just for the GSIII. it's a great phone, but not that great lol. besides, maybe the...

the S4 chip is based off of the same architecture as the A15, but it is not as big of a jump as the A15 will be. the real area where you'll see the difference, is the graphical processing. the S4 (while good), is still far behind the advantages of the new wave of chips. am i the only one...

if you backed up your ipod/iphone on your computer before you synced and updated, then you should have lost nothing. it should all be stored on your comp. if you did lose your files, then i am sorry. there were options. :( maybe my experience just varies from yours. it's also worth noting that...

personally, i prefer Sense 4.0 (the UI for the new HTC phones), but it ultimately boils down to personal preference. i know some that prefer the Touchwiz approach. for me, Sense 4.0 just clicks better because it's visual, simple, and VERY stylish, yet functional at the same time. as for your...
