Some websites and apps need to identify the phone youre on for different reasons...the fingerprint just means it will identify your phone as a T989.

thanks
Alright thanks

Need help porting!

Hello, I was gonna ask if it is possible to port a international Galaxy S3 ROM to the sprint one?
I really wanna port the super nexus one from the international but is more complicated than porting from a US S3?
Well why not just try it out? I mean the main problem people who port roms is that theres one feature in one device that isnt exactly compatible with another device, but since that ROM is built for as similar a device to this one as is possible, then it should be easier than trying to port from something completely different
I mean obviously the final test is just trying it, so why not give it a go?

Awesome, if you want I could even help but the testing would have to be on your end (I'm hanging around these forums cuz I'm getting the SGS3 for my upgrade at the end of Jan)

Okay, Thank you. I just finished for the night. I kept getting status 7's. Any clue what went wrong?

Status 6 and status 7 errors mean that somethings funky with the updater-script. Most likely its your mount points

Porting from international is much harder than putting from a us variant
Because of different hardware and the fact that putting between us carries have been done plenty so some devs should easily be able to give you some specific help
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
Porting between the us s3's takes little if any work depending on the rom itself. Whereas if you don't know what your doing I strongly advise not trying to port one from the International s3. The partitions are different and one typo can lead to a hard brick.

Why the heck can't I update to 4.1.2?!?

I've seen other people posting about how they're at 4.2, on AT&T. It's not in the card for me though. I try OTA, and Kies daily, nothing. Googled it, nothing. Searched here, nothing. What the hell!

Is this a serious post? You realize there is no "Official" 4.1.2 from Samsung right?
the 4.2s are custom roms

From what I had read there was a 4.1.2 that fixed battery problems, put in multi windows, **** like that. Well ****, Thanks.

Yes, Sammy is adding what they are calling "Premium Suite," but no idea when that will be released. Just keep an eye on Android blogs and here on XDA and you'll have it as soon as it's available.
Thanks man

actually
when i was using 4.1.1 stock, the battery was pretty good, just turn off gps and autosync and it'd last ~2 days without use much beside talk, text
and sorry to disappoint you, due to our U.S S3 only has duo core, there won't be any "Multi windows"
but there are roms out there that has it, that's if you have your phone rooted
and if your phone is rooted, there are also a lot of roms out there have a really good battery life.

Oh and if you look around the Dev Thread, there are some ROMs that are ports of Note 2 ROMs that have Multi-Window built in. Give them a try.

I'm gonna have to look into rooting then. I have pretty good battery life, but could always be better, especially if I get some added perks.

[Q] Happy to say: coming back to gs3

Hey all. I'm happy to say that I'm coming back to the gs3. Development seems to have exploded since I was last here (which is awesome). I just have a couple of questions I'm hoping someone can help me with. First off I see some 4.2.2 roms (like cm10.1). When I was on the note 2 flashing one of those roms would do some crazy sh*t to my sd card (basically create a new directory called "0" and move stuff there). Undoing it was kind of a mess when going back to an older rom. Does the same thing happen on the gs3?
Secondly, I quickly looked over some of the newest roms available under the original dev thread and most of them, under "what's not working," simply say "you tell me." Now, from previous experience this usually means there are next to no bugs. Is this true? If not, what are the most commonly seen bugs now on the "built from source" roms like cm10.1, slim bean, PAC man, and aokp? Also miui (these are my favs).
Thanks in advance guys!

It depends...there are a lot of ports in the thread so i don't know how they would effect your library. Each ROM has their own up/downfall depending on what you want from your phone, but that's up to you.
As far as your second question, again it is hit and miss. The devs usually post something they run on their own phone and ask for ideas from the community on what they would like added, if possible. Do a nand and flash around until you find a good candidate for your needs.

Thanks for the response. While I am aware that every rom is different and that flashing them is the best way to get my questions answered, the issue of 10.2 roms creating a new directory on the sd card was a well known issue on the note 2 forums. And it only applied to 10.2 roms. Again does anyone know if the same thing happens on the gs3?
Thanks.

as mentioned above there are some roms that create a "0" folder but for me ive only had this happen to me when flashing jelly bam i never got that when i flashed cm10.1 and as far as the bugs thing you mentioned that really depends on your device and what you use it for, me and my girlfriend have had cm10.1 for a while but my phone never has issues but hers has issues sometimes it all really depends on your phone if it plays nice with the rom or if its going to reject it. For the most part there shouldnt be any issues and if there is maybe its the use your putting into the device is something it cant handle that well my phone cant handle multiview that well because it really heats up and other people it works fine so just depends. hope this helps

It's something that TWRP has tried to mitigate within their recovery, but they still recommend not flip-flopping back and forth.
Please see this TWRP FAQ for more information.
Can I ask why you switched back to the S3 from the note 2?

Note 2 is GREAT but the size did get to me after a while. Didn't bother me at first but over time I noticed it more and more.

[Q] Pure Android ROM?

Is there a stable (fully working) vanilla/pure android ROM out there yet?
Yes, but they are hidden from people who don't search first...

Yea but it's top secret since you did not post this in the correct section we can not tell you
Nothing out there that is fully working... Still waiting
Sigh. The bad habit of posting before searching seems so much worse in the G3 threads than any other phone I've owned -__-

I was thinking the same thing until I remembered what the gs3 q&a section looked like. On any given day you would see the same question get answered about five times.
Nothing yet.
Items not yet working:
Camera
Bluetooth
LED Light stays on initially until connected to a charger.
Lockscreen will sometimes momentarily freeze on unlock.
With Lollipop around the corner I don't really see these things getting fixed just yet. I would put money on the fact that the devs are going to be more focused on getting a functional Lollipop ROM before spending a ton of time on working out these nagging issues.

Just a heads up is all
Sorry to those of you that were angered by my original post, that was not my intention....But it sounds like we will see 5.0 by the end of the year. I just wonder how much LG will change it so I will probably root and install a custom ROM anyways.

You can always flash a stock based ROM once it's released too.
My camera is working so they should have it fixed soon
