Hi all. I recently bought another S3 4G and it feels no where near as good as my old S3 is there a way to tell if I have received a clone phone? It says galaxy S3 and I successfully installed ripper rom on it but it just don't feel right.
Also what is a room that has 0 system apps on it and is bare so I can start from scratch?
Thanks

Well when I plugged it into the PC it said hardware ID missing but then Kies installed drivers so I'm guessing so but not to sure.

Simply put: If it says it registers to be a SGS III and you can install a ROM that is device specific then it is an S III. If you are still curious though try finding a hardware reading or something and compare it to normal S IIIs

Just check if it has Samsung features like direct call, and multi window

If it is running a Samsung ROM that would brick any other device other than the I9305, then it would have it.

Okay I'll check everything as soon as I get home . Thanks for the help everyone.
My other question is what's a rom with everything removed and just the important things like phone and messaging ect

Well it was detected as a S3 and I installed 2 I9305 Roms on it so must just be because....... Well I dunno. Its black maybe lol? Just doesn't feel the same as my old S3 4G did.
It will grow on me

Hahaha I can imagine the feeling actually, well enjoy and I strongly recommend Liquid Smooth ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2149746), it is basically the same as Cyanogenmod (both AOSP) but unlike CM it has an official build, less bugs (in my experience), proper support and a proper maintainer though it would not be there if not for CodeWorkx so many thanks to him.

Yes I have it on my phone, it has never bugged flashing. If it were to have the Samsung features then it would have a crap load of bloatware on it, making it slower etc. It doesn't even come with the calendar installed so it doesn't like bloatware (excluding GTalk)

I have liquid smooth and installed it. Only thing is the icon names wasn't in English for some reason and it was set to English in the settings.

Reboot and you should be fine, a few others had the same issues with the language but they fixed themselves with reboots and time

Hi guys,
So ive just got a LG Optimus 2X and its an amazing phone... just a quick question, when i've installed CWM (all versions) its always vibrates and buzzes (its quite scary). Could someone tell me the solution or what im doing wrong, that would be much appreciated
P.s. is it because I installed BusyBox w/ SU and then with JRummy?
Thanks

Did you even read the specs of the Note before buying it ?
The Note(GT-N7000) doesn't support NFC
it's better you sell your Note and get the Note 2 (when Sammy will release it), perhaps that comes already with NFC that you truly desire for.

I think it can only be activated with the samsung battery that was seen on many photos at the galaxy note release, because you would need the antenna inside it to use nfc. But i have not seen samsung selling any of these batteries yet.

The one who makes jokes. FYI N7000 has optional NFC support.
One of the carrier in my country selling N7000 with NFC installed.
So sorry for you guys that just coming here to find something for make a fun instead of helping others.

Samsung has put the design of the NFC in the N7000.. Not sure what their plan is when it comes to the rollout to the public.. I was able to see it on the schematics of the N7000..
You can look it up on Dr. Ketan's toolbox.. Galaxy note Service manual..
Dear all,
I have recently rooted my Samsung galaxy note using this method:www .cursed4eva.com/root-galaxy-note/ which worked very well and i had no issues.
I then installed Beats audio pro from the play store and thats when i started to get issues like crashes and such so i uninstalled the app, then thats when i started to get a error message saying "Process system not responding" which would result in me losing control of my keyboard and i completely lost service and was unable to make calls etc(O2 UK).
I then performed a factory wipe and cleared the cache but this has made matters worse now when i reboot it only shows up for a couple of minutes then shows the "process system not responding" error message then goes to a blank screen with only the two lights at the bottom showing and i cant use my phone at all.
Please Help ill paypal anyone who can get my phone to work again.
Oh and Hi im Nathan nice to meet you all
Put the phone in download mode. Use pc odin to flash latest ICS rom.
Please PayPal Nokia model n91 10 million dollars or 5 million euros. Whatever is easier for u

Not sure what the point of the last thread was. It's possible that the hot fixed had a virus? Be careful about the sites you choose for Android tweaks, it's incredibly susceptible to viruses. I could be way off here.

Am I missing something here. Where did the virus come from?
It's not difficult to add things into an app. They're saying that someone could have embedded a virus in what he used for root, to hijack his phone.

That is weird!
Are you rooted, or is device completely stock?
Have you downloaded any new apps that may have gone rogue or maybe a virus that you can think of?

I am using samsung galaxy note. I plan on getting the note 3, so I guess I accidentally just read note 3 as my device.
I'm guessing if I could uninstall any play store updates, I could update again, and everything would be fine. But I don't know how to do that.

Go to app manager click play store then uninstall updates

I tried that already. Wasn't there. Looked again, and realized it wasn't where, I expected it to be, because the name had changed to some unintelligible string. Cleared data, then removed updates, just as easily as I expected it to be, but I didn't look good enough.

I suspect you got hit pretty hard with malware.
What carrier are you using or what is the model number of your device, a mod will be by shortly to move this to the proper forum.
You may need to go and do a complete restore of your device.

Yeah, I saw there was another thread in the Gear 2 forums (they should probably combine them!). They said the same thing about it being international or something. I read one post saying they installed it with Odin, not sure if that was true but I will just hold off installing it.
Thanks!

I have no issues here in US. I flashed the Greek firmware in Odin and all is well through a normal day of usage and apps install as usual via Samsung Apps. I'm about to try reverting just for shiggles and see how that goes, for no reason other than curiosity.

Ditto... somehow no one has posted anything about what this build has to offer. I find that sort of strange.
I honestly haven't noticed anything much. I did notice that the occasional artifacts left behind by a previous screen when scrolling through my apps seem to have stopped. Other than that no visible changes to me.

Hi guys, there's a new official BTU firmware available via ota. Change log lists s health improvement plus ui improvement. Will test and report anything extraordinary. Personally I'm hoping the pedometer learns to count steps and the heart rate sensor to stop jumping from 70 to 140 in a few seconds.
