Heh, that's what they all say in the beginning. I said that too and it lasted.... about a week. I rooted the other day to get the Multi-Window update to work with all apps not just the handful that Samsung limits you to.
I don't know app wise, but if you get tired of the Touch Wiz limitations, I can recommend Nova Launcher. That's probably the best update I have done to this thing. Add much more flexibility to the phone.
I rooted mine as soon as i got home, took about ten minutes....if that. Titanium backup is essential to me ever since my OG EVO.

Heh mine lasted about 3 hours without rooting while I got familiar with the features of the phone.
I rooted as soon as I got home. Copied the Titanium backup directory from my old phone and restored my apps.
Thanks for yall response I will be getting my phone in today can't wait the part that I don't like so sdvo and it looks like they won't enable that in it

GPS is taking a LONG time to connect for me. Sometimes I give up, restart Navigation and then it connects in about a minute. But the initial connect is WAY too slow.
My EVO 3D would connect in about 30 seconds max, this thing takes many minutes.

Yes, GPS in other apps seems ok, but in Navigation(Google) is what is taking forever.

I had this problem on my vibrant SO MUCH (like maybe 15 texts per day did this). Then I had it on my Galaxy S 4G (less but still alot). Now I rarely have it on my Galaxy S 2. No idea what could cause this issue but it seems to be getting better down the generations lol
I've had only about.......5 since I got my phone.
Yes, lately I've been getting alot. Mostly while im on my wifi calling is on.

on my galaxy S 2, it might happened maybe 3-4 times since the 3 months I've had the phone
Yup.
Happens to me on a frequent basis. I have a launch release GS2 and it seems to happen to me on a frequent basis. I'm not sure what it is but it also happens a lot when it's converted to mms. I hope this gets fixed with ICS.

I had this happen to me a couple weeks ago. I called t-mo and told the rep what was going on. He told me to reset my phone and he did something on his end. After that I haven't had a problem since.

Ok so how long do u have to see some good battery im on my 3rd charge and its been lasting me 6 to 7 hours but i have only text and some surf and a bit of gaming i am on the latest stock rom rooted and i have hotspot hack and sprint boot that i installed
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
That's pretty terrible even if it's not conditioned yet. Especially because it sounds like you have only light use. You may want to take it back and replace the battery. Either that or you're in an area with terrible signal.

Did you let the battery completely drain and then charge to 100% after you bought your phone?

Take it back and get a new one. I just bought one on friday and even with heavy use my battery has lasted 20+ hours.
Sounds like a bad battery then. Happened to me on another phone. I just asked for a new battery and they gave it to me no problem.
I don't even have full bars and I get a minimum of 12 hours on pretty semi heavy use. I don't use wifi and I get at least 3-3.5 hours of screen on time.

Basically you shouldn't have to worry about battery life if your only using the phone "normally".....

A sales only store is unlikely to have any batteries on hand, we hoard a ton of new and used ones at my store, but we're a repair store...we're always getting folks coming from sales only stores for batteries.

Excellent news, glad it worked out. Where did you end up getting your battery? And if you don't mind me asking, how much did it set you back?
Apps like Facebook would drain my battery really fast. I use friendcaster now. Also make sure your not using the wireless location in the gps setting.

Takes business day, so if you can then now, you'll get it on Thursday.
It also depends on if they have the phone in stock or not.

Some tech stores have cool techs.. stop buy and see if they have a dead s3 with a good screen that they could swap it out for ya.
Offer lunch/breakfast etc
