Moving Phones - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

I am planning to move from ATT S3 to Tmobile S3 but i want to know how can i move all settings,apps and other stuff from ATT S3 to Tmobile S3 ?
Please let me know. All help will be awesome

Could always make a titanium backup and then move the folder to your new phone and restore your apps there.

Idk why you would do that being as tho the T-mobile version is not LTE capable

Is there any other option for me back up everything on computer from one galaxy s3 not rooted to another one. Like i can do it on iPhone

Your contacts and apps are backed up on your Google account. When you sign in your contacts are installed automatically and your apps are in the play store under menu/my apps/ then slide left to uninstalled. They are all there ready to DL.

^@above post: that is correct but note that the APP DATA WILL NOT BE SAVED. only the name of the app.

Where is the stock phone apk located? I should probably make a titanium backup of it no?

I would rename your original phone.apk to something like "original_phone.apk" instead of deleting it. You never know...

Its located in system/app
You only want to make a back up if you ever feel like getting it back in the future

I tried to install this, did everything right and I was unable to get service on my phone, also going into mobile networks section would crash, luckily I had made a nandroid backup just before doing this. Just a warning
On the Verizon model, there IS NO "phone.apk" in the System/App folder. There is a "SecPhone.apk", but making changes to it makes you lose your Verizon service, both voice and data.
I have phoneerrservice.apk and phonesky.apk, am I removing both?

I think you're talking about the touchwiz phone app. This thread is about the cyanogenmod9 phone app

What I'd really like is a notification that can be dismissed, not sure if that is possible though

I too am coming from a rooted Verizon phone. Is there any known workaround for installing this apk?

How did you install it? Did you use adb and push it to /system/app? Did you use root explorer and copy it to /system/app and then edit the permissions appropriately? Or did you just open the apk to install?
This is for CM9 users only.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
I used root explorer and pushed it to system/app and change permissions. After that, I got no service, wifi worked but couldn't make phone calls or send/receive text messages. So I had to restore from Android backup

I don't know of a way to restore directly from dropbox. I believe it WS designed as a means to store the backups rather than restore from there.

Right. There are some apps on the market you can use to download from drop box to your phone. I've never used them but its worth a shot if you don't have a PC near by.

Just rooted my Note 2, now what apps should I get?

Ive already downloaded Titanium Backup Pro and uninstalled all the system apps I wont use. Now I want a app to hide duplicate icons? What other apps do you recommend for a rooted phone?
Advice. . Don't uninstall stuff use the freeze option in titanium back up. And you can hide stuff from touch wiz itself. Go to app drawer and hit the menu and click on hide.
If you have any questions feel free to ask. Just let me know what specifically you want to do

look through this thread on the International Note 2 forum.

doesnt need root but ......."Tasker" is a must!
For multiple devices, I use DataSync

It allows you to play one game on your tablet (other device) and continue where you left off on your Note 2
Could someone with the ATT Galaxy Note II please upload the stock Samsung keyboard. I use the stock keyboard on the International Note II, but prefer the one from ATT because it has the symbols & letters on the same keys.

just got to application and then all apps
and look which apps you don't use and shut it down.
I know but will any of them present installed mess with the actual operation of the phone?

Magna Carta compatibility

so the other day i saw a new app called magna carta and checked it out. for those of you that dont know what it is: http://www.droid-life.com/2013/06/2...tall-to-be-the-first-to-get-jay-zs-new-album/
now according to the article it would say your phone is not compatible when trying to install it, but when i did it went through the install and everything and said i would receive the album. im wondering if this is because i am on rootbox and the build is changed and it makes it compatible with the app.
what id like is for someone who is completely stock to try install the apps and post results. my theory is that if it wont let you install we could change the build.prop and trick it to think it was samsung thus letting any rooted android user have access to getting the album free.
funniest part is im not a rap fan nor a jay-z fan but i think this would be cool for those who are and dont have a galaxy.
I'm stock and rooted and unlocked but this is what i get.

I'm on AOKP and I was able to download it, so I'm wondering if you have 4.2.2 on your phone you can get it.
If this was the case than someone with a nexus could get it.

I checked the build prop on this rom and it hasn't been changed, so I'm not sure how I was able to get it, I was expecting to get the "not compitable with your device" message, but it gave me the install option.
I was able to download the album as well. I know a lot of s4 owners had problems with the app. Also I'm using Banks minimal gapps, so not sure if thats the reason why I was able to get it.
