[Q] What forum for SC-06D topics? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This one, which doesn't match spec-wise? Or the general no-forum ghetto where it would get totally ignored?

That doesn't provide an answer. There is no existing forum which matches up with the SC-06D's hardware perfectly (the closest would probably be the AT&T variant but there is a lot of difference in the bands covered), however what traffic I've seen so far has been in the I9300 forum. Same problem exists for the korean hardware.

This turns up nothing, as there is no section for it.

A careful review of the chart in this post shows that there is no section for the Korean or Japanese models of the phone.
It would be nice if we could get a section created for the Japanese model. I'm also planning on picking on up soon, and it would be nice to have a place to discuss. Or, if we could figure out one of the other models that have compatible roms... (sadly, we can't collab to figure this out very effectively without our own section)

If you want to go by closest hardware type, korean model should go in I9300 forum (this is clear because its the only other model that is Exynos) and SC-06D should go in I747 AT&T forum, but you'd get comments on every thread from smartasses telling you wrong forum.

There is a clear historic bias from XDA admins against creating forums for models not sold in north american or european markets. Not even worth trying.

Any chance you could provide a link? I did some searching and couldn't track it down. Couldn't hurt to have us all request a SC-06D forum.

That may be the case, but I'd hope that as the android community grows and globalizes they would be willing to open the site up to phones from other countries. It would expand the user base of the site - good for them right?

I agree with the post above this one. That's the reason God built a search button into the XDA forum, and the reason He's blessed us with google.
Hint: look in the SGS2 development forum for the letters "ICS", then read about what you find.
Even more help (cause I'm such a nice guy):
Relevant forum
EDIT: If you're more interested in stock ROMs...check out sammobile.com (damn, I'm being nice today!).
There are also several threads in the General section outlining exactly what you are asking. I will leave finding them an exercise to you.

[Q] Phone variations means Rom flashing with care?

There are two variations now. My assumption is that the roms are hardware specific?
I would assume that roms or mods made for the international version should not be flashed to the US/Canada versions?
We saw these compatibility issues when Barnes and noble released 2 different variations of the nook tablet. Some Dev insight would be great.
I will be filming tutorial videos for this phone and want to make sure warnings on the videos are proper. Thanks.
Of course roms are hardware specific. No need to question that.

my point is that it leads to the next question, should xda create a separate forum section for the north american version instead of just combining both in the SIII in general

+1 For separate model numbers within Galaxy S3 forum section. This would take a lot of the confusion out which roms to flash.

They will.. as they did with galaxy s2. Wait till that device launches and they will all have their respective forums... AT&T, TMob, Veriz, This forum has even been updated from "Galaxy SIII" to "Galaxy SIII GT-I9300"

[Q] No Support for US Cellular

So am I looking in the wrong place or am correct to believe the following.
1. There is no forum for US Cellular's Galaxy S III
2. There aren't any roms for USC GSIII
3. Most importantly there are no files to get my phone to stock if I brick it attempting to "test" some other carrier roms.

Correct this is I9300.

Have you read the sticky at the top of the page .

Yeah I know this isn't the place for my phone. But if it doesn't exist what forum should I post about the my GSIII?
Clearly this is the international forum but I'm wondering if anyone else knows where to find what I'm looking for or if it just really doesn't exist.
That sticky is the first thing I read and as it looks there isn't any link to redirect me towards my carrier's phone.
Verizon galaxy SIII forum is your best bet because AFAIK the USC variant is CDMA as well.

Which Device do I have?

I have the US Cellular Varient of the GS3 (4GLTE+2GBram)
Would this be considered the i9305? under settings model number it says"SCH-530U" blah blah.
Anyone know?
This is the international forum. Keyword international, you have a us cellular variant sgs3 so no its not an I9305. Instead of making the most useless thread why wouldn't you just do a google search??

It seems that you don't know anything about this stuff, but here's a tip: You have the USA version, ask these questions in their forum.
Anyway, what carrier do you have?
Okay guys, no reason to be rude, it was simple question that only requested a simple answer.
Sent from my SCH-R530U using xda premium
Yes but when you get 40 posts like yours a day some get annoyed as USA users don't read the stickies i guess .

Well i do apologize for the new topic then i was just hoping for a direct answer.

Have you listened yourself????
You wrote: I f....k all the rules here if I can have direct answer.
As many other peoples here, I can just be abused by anotjer example of typical US-like self-ignorance and discrimination of all others, following the rules in patience.
So please put your lasso aside, stop your horse and start doing that what you're expecting from others.

Lol at USA bashing ;p
As you can probably see from people's signatures, your model is what your device is.
And we should make the stickies stand out more.. it looks like a normal post to me..

best i9305 modem in canada

hi everybody;
I have recently brought a i9305 and using it in Canada, however I find that my 4g signal is always low; (1 bar) and is always sittint at that (1 bar). Now is there any other modem thats better then the one that I use. currenly i try ZHALI2, and XXBLL3; they are pretty much the same
1. Asking for a best ROM is against the rules. Read them.
2. It's the 9300 section, not 9305
All I can suggest is try them, also have you tried other phones and do they get a better 4g signal? It could be the signal in your area that is the problem not the phone or modem.

This is the I9300 and I9305 forum, check the name, the only area that is different is the development forum because the roms aren't cross compatible, the general discussion is rolled into one. Check the path to this forum Home > Samsung Galaxy S III I9300, I9305 > Galaxy S III General.

You're right, I confused it with the Q&A section.
But still, you can't ask for a best ROMs on XDA

It all depends on a range of factors and only you can find the best, try them and find out, what I find the best might not be the best for you.
