NFC - T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII

am just wondering if other smartphones have NFC then you can transfer with other smartphone..right?what i mean is its not only s3 to s3 but you can do it with other devices..right?

Yes but you can't use sbeam. You need a third party app on both phones.

Thank you for the clarification

Correct that sbeam won't work without another S3. But Under NFC in settings you should find somethinv called Android Beam that does what you're asking.

Thanks for clarifying. I'm the only person I know at the moment who has nfc capabilities, so I never use it. Good to know.

I use it occasionally. And what do you mean "I'm the only person i know at the moment who has NFC capabilities?"

Just that no one I see on a regular basis has a device with nfc. So its a feature I haven't ever used, that's all.

I personally don't think so, but its always better safe than sorry.

Short answer, if you only download from the market aka don't download third party apps, you don't NEED it.

This is true. I know there were recent articles about this, do you know that lookout mobile security would protect you from this?

They don't? Wireless tether works fine on my phone and if they didn't you would of heard more about by now. Honestly though what rom are you using since mostly all the AOSP roms I have tried the native tethering works just fine

Yeah agreed. lol
Yeah they do but my question is if you don't have a tethering plan its free isn't it to use to the native tethering...I used to use the barnacle app but it doesn't work anymore I gotta use the hotspots built into the phone

Not sure where the problem is since you use the native now...

No problem I'm just wondering if the native is the same as 3rd party and undetected by the carrier like a 3rd party would be

I'm not trying to say you are wrong.. but I remember my friend who used to work for Verizon say the only way they can tell is by the apk that's on stock ROMs. I also read that sometimes carriers look at the user-agent. But since devices spoof a desktop user-agent, that method doesn't work anymore.
As far as my knowledge goes, only way they can tell what is using the data is by having that little spy app knowing if it's tethering or not.

This is correct. I recently asked a tmo rep, and they can't even see a phone on their network unless it's stock. Once you put a custom Rom, it might as well be invisible to them. All they can see is how much data you're using, but not how you're using it, or even with what device. Their little spyware apks give them everything

Multi-view

So I'm sure most of you at least once saw review of Galaxy Note II and the feature they call Multi-view is basically doing two things at once. By now it's certain that this feature will come to S3. Do you think our scrawny Dual-core will get it? Well if not I'm sure someone will port it to Custom ROM but, will it handle it?
In terms of our processor handling it, I have no idea why you think it wouldn't. Lol. This processor is beast. Now I doubt any phone could support two games at once. Really don't see a point. But yes I believe our device will see it in the future. I know I'm working on porting it and I believe someone else is as well.

Sorry if this is common knowledge....how is it confirmed officially that we will get multi-view? Or you are referring to unofficial roms by our great devs?

I know you said probably no phone could play two games at once (I know its pointless of course) but people being people, I'm sure thats the first thing a lot of people would do lol. Would they just FC? Really excited to see this released (probably just by devs...I bet Samsung wants to keep this feature for the Galaxy S4)
I would be exited to test out....

Sounds like I'm going on an endless search for information. So far I've found that it's possible on another phone (GS3 I think it was?), so it must be do-able on the GN2. The search continues!
