Does anyone use a slingbox with there gs3 on att network without lte, if so how well does the picture look?

Just like 3G. Good reception yields good results. Obviously LTE is better but with good reception, you'll be fine. I even use it while driving (I know, irresponsible)
Thanks does any have any idea how much data a 3 hour NFL game would use?

I upgraded to this phone about a month ago, and my spouse got the GSIII. I love the phone and wouldn't trade it for anything. However, often my spouse asks me to do stuff for her on her phone, so I get to play with the GSIII pretty often. When I use her phone it seems so much smoother in its scrolling.
Is it just because it has a smaller screen? Has anyone else noticed that? Not a big deal for me, I still don't want a GSIII, but it is just something I noticed. Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

the sIII have 306 PPI vs noteII's 267 PPI
Is her gs3 stock. I have a gs3 and it's not as fast as my note 2.

How can you get smoother than perfectly smooth? I recommend another launcher like Nova.
Launcher, screen transition effects, widgets, and use of live wallpapers will affect smoothness. Compare similar setups, then decide. My Note 2 is smoother than my wifes GS3.

same situation here. the gs3 is way "smoother" than my note 2. not faster... smoother. hard to explain...
it's almost like the frame rate is higher? but when I use the lady's gs3, it's quite noticeable.

I have Nova Launcher prime. One home screen. No live wallpaper....or live widgets. The GSIII is just smoother when scrolling in menus...no other way to dice it. Perhaps its a Qualcomm vs. Exynos issue?

Who gives a damn we all love this phone more than the s3. Believe me
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
I think its not the note 2 being so bad but just shows how really good of a phone the s3 is. The only reason i moved on was bc iam 6 foot 4 with gorilla hands lol and i love the way the note 2 feels. I dont use the multiview or the s pen. My fiance still has the s3 and i agree its a very smooth phone.

Do you have power saving mode on?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
I just had to do a side by side scrolling test in google and I see exactly what you mean. Im almost 100% sure its the screen size making it seem smoother. Screen brightness also seemed to make the screen more or less smooth.
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
Yes, I do have power saving mode on....I will try taking it off

You're the only person who actually brought up the processor difference! Even tho the GS3 is a dualcore you guys have to remember it has a newer chip Snapdragon S4 Krait then the one on our Quadcore Note 2. Which is the same Exynos 4412 chip on my previous Epic Touch but with two more extra cores. In other words it's old! Still no big difference tho to be so worked up about. Unless you're going to use both phones back to back you won't notice a difference..

I know that... the gs3 can also do net/camera send while on a call and the note 2 cannot. the gs3 is a better phone hardware wise, screen not withstanding

That's due to the Qualcomm chip too. No 3g data over phone calls is the only thing I hate about my Note.

If you're on LTE it can send and receive mms, and browse the Web while you're on a call. It's not that the chip can't handle it. It's just that 3g and voice use the same hardware so you can't do both, but you can while on LTE.
And sprint just disabled the camera when on a call. The note is more than capable of doing it.

You can do 3G data on calls on the GS3, HTC EVO LTE, VIPER, and other Qualcomm based phones. I had the Sprint GS3 and had no issues using data and calls at the same time. Everybody knows that! Where you been?
Our Note can't do it because it has the Exynos chip.

On my Note 2, the wifi seems terribly slow. My old phones pull about 40mb/s down and 30mb/s up,
while on this Note 2 I only get about 10 mb/s down and 20mb/s up.
Did Samsung or ATT cripple the Wi-Fi performance on purpose to push their LTE service?
if you are getting good Wi-Fi Speeds, please share your configuration.
This is not a thread for E-peen.
30 MB up? Lol what kind of internet are you using?
Try a different server.. Most users here will average 20 to 40 MB down and 1 to 5 MB up

I'm getting about 20 down and about 15 up on Wi-Fi. Which is odd, because the Mac in the other room gets about 30/40 down but only 6/10 up. So I get better upload speeds on the Note than I do on the Mac.
Was streaming Hulu on the PS3 when I ran this test, so I dunno if I would get better results without that.

Man here in Ontario most if not all cable providers don't offer anything higher then 5mb up. I never realized the states has that much better plans.
I always get 1 mb up and just noticed its now 2 Lol. I get better results on LTE

I get great speeds on 3G, but if it stays on for to long i get a drop in speed. Like the wifi bug.
I have to disable mobile data and then enable it again for the speed to be normal again.
Any other have this problem?
My dad had that bug too in his canvas HD A116
if he doesn't turn mobile data off in 2 - 4 hrs the download speed gets akunlmy it stops.

I'm on Three on an N7105 (unlocked EE) and despite frequent trips through London, and DC showing regularly on my stock ROM (latest SFR), I've never seen any remarkable speeds on DC-HSPA (mostly 3-7mbps). I'm just hoping that 4G when it comes will make a significant difference... Beginning to wonder whether I have a duff device.
