Hi mate.
Did you know there is a Q&A thread?
U may get a better answer there...

And no a cheap Chinese one won't be as good. I got a high capacity one for s2 and it didnt last long. May be defective. May just be poorly made and not tested enough.

No they will not cover it as in ur 1st post u stated you exchanged housing.
So for what ever reason housing was damaged or wrong color all was working fine untill the fast hands of oneself?
Gavin take appart aand refit this way your checking over all connections.
I did.. The new housing looks like original so doubt it they can see any difference

Any modifications carried out by non-Samsung authorised repair people (or anyone else for that matter) voids your warranty.
Basically you're asking a question only Samsung can answer. Soooo...You're going to have to roll the dice & send it in for warranty service & see what happens. Or have it repaired by someone other than Samsung.
Being a betting man, I'd say you'll be paying for the repairs either way.

They would have to be blind or dump not to see any difference since the original handsets have a label (battery space) with fone details on it....
But if you explain to them its better you pay Sammy to fix your fone then paying out for a brand new one...
That sticker is on the new one took it off the old one and put on the new.. Its a guinine cover

At the end of the day, you're not going to find the answer to your question by posting on here.
You're only going to find out by asking Samsung to fix your phone....Soooo....How bout you do exactly that & let us know how you go ?
Ok if they wont repair il by a new screen on ebay for 120e and do it

Everything is the same with the i9220 & i717 except the radio right?
sent from places you don't want to go...
I think the i9220 is the international version.
So different back plate, no nfc and different processor as well.
But the dimensions should be the same.
Hoping this case snaps over top the i717.
I believe the i9220 is the UK version of the note? Same dimensions, but you never know...
The exterior dimensions are the same. I can see some compromises were made to the design, because of the Spen. I'd be a little concerned about the smallish charger. They should have designed it with the charging port integrated to the case like many iPhones have. This would have given it a more finished, put together look. Still awesome to see so many options for cases, extended batteries and charging out there!
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA
My reasons for getting this particular extended battery case is:
1) didn't make the Note any longer
2) has a built in kickstand
3) option for charging another device that takes micro USB charger
4) easiest on/off case I've seen.
5) because it says "Galaxy Note" on the kickstand
I will order this in a couple days.

Curious to see how it does. If it's at least as good as another standard battery it'd be worth it.
I bought a similar one from Chinavasion. And it was also an international version. It fit perfectly on my at&t note.

What screen on time are you seeing?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda app-developers app
Oh its different cause since it actually counts as charging the battery it doesn't record that. See I can do 5 hours on my stock battery alone and I know for a fact that I can double it with the battery case. Its a battery case so it keeps my battery at 100 for about 6 hours and then my stock battery takes over. Do you understand what i mean?

Exchanging back to one s. Restore back to stock?

When I exchange to the one s, I'm obviously restoring back to stock via Odin but there is no way of resetting flash count. Would this cause an issue with t-mobile? This phone has way too many connection issues and the one s when I had it for a few days did awesome, unfortunately I jumped on the band wagon.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
try return it and see...i have not have troulbe with connection, must be that specific phone or your area
Definitely not my area. Had the one s for a few days and reception was insanely strong. Bought the phone from customer care over the phone.

Would a specific Rom cause issues? I just flashed back to stock and it seems more stable.

Sacrifice signal strength for better hardware, its how it works. Get the crappiest flip phone in the world and it will have good signal strength if that's all you care about in a phone.
They're not going to check the counter. I can assure you.
How is gsm3 better hardware it's almost identical to the one s minus the screen and sd card and removable battery. I'm not bashing, I have the gs3 in my hands.

There's like 10% increase according to users who got it, so yeah it will, just not a majorly noticeable difference.

Galaxy S3 I9300 Blue or White

Hi there guys, this one is just a really quick question.
Im buying the Samsung Galaxy S3 this week and was just wondering which colour to choose as they both look nice to me.
So what is peoples opinions, what colour would you pick/have you got?

But one question... which do u prefer?

Personally i think you should go for the one u like the most. Or you could choose a colour someone else likes. But the one you like suits u best i believe.
Ud love this beast if it was pink tbh
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Yeah i can see what your saying mate but thats the problem, i like the blue one but then the white one looks so good aswell lol.
I mean a few of my mates have got the phone but a few have blue and a few have white so its not like a majority have one colour or the other lol.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Id say white mate

Pretty ordinary thread. Like asking what colour car should I buy. The reason car companies have multiple colours available is because everyone has their own tastes and preferences.
Personally I prefer and have the blue. It is just so different.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
See thats the other thing aswell. There are quite alot of White phones already out there like iPhones and Galaxy S2 and Xperia S and others. But blue ones? I honestly cant think of any lol.
