HI
what is the difference between the s3 and s3 ultra fast?
Is it just a matter of software or other equipment/hardware?
Thanks
Apparently this "Superfast" edition is Three UK's phone. Bad thing about is that it doesn't even ship with Jellybean. What a fail.

A quick search shows he might be talking about this:
http://www.coolsmartphone.com/2013/02/08/three-release-galaxy-s3-ultrafast/
So, it's the S3 with either an 'ultrafast' plan or just some mobile data tweak, didn't really bother to read.

Sounds like that's like the I3905 with LTE

So, s3 ultra fast(LTE) hardware is different than s3?
To clarify whether this is a new phone and a "normal" S3 will not have fast broadband?

The I3905 that is on EE right now has 2gb of ram compared to the 1gb on the standard GS3 plus it has an LTE modem so different hardware yes.
Whether Three's version of the GS3 is LTE and therefore different remains to be seen.

The origanal S3, or GT-I9300 will not work with LTE, it has never done it will never, it doesn't have the hardware.
This sounds like the GT-I9305, or the S3 LTE, there are 2 differances, it will support LTE or DC-HSDPA (super fast mobile broadband) and it has 2GB RAM rather than 1GB.

This phone is basically 3.5G not LTE

My contact at Three seems to think this is a new phone.. NOT i9300 and not i9305. I'd guess doesnt have LTE (otherwise Three would say so since they are launching LTE on the frequencies they got from EE) and it does have DC-HSDPA+ so perhaps a new model number?

I was about to get the SGS2 LTE and plan to flash it soon after getting it.. however I noticed all roms are currently made for the original 4g model.
I am not an expert but I know what I am doing for the most part (being an HD2 owner for 2 years). there are two issues I see... sorry, in advance, for the lingo i use
1) the LTE has 4 soft buttons in the front (like the infuse).. whereas the original has a hard button in the front. which means "Base rom" would be different, no?
2) I don't this is a big problem but ill ask any ways... All current roms are made for 4G so will that mean that the phone will only work on 4g, assuming the button problem is resolved?
If there is another thread that will answer this please let me know and ill remove this thread. I just could find anything. I clicked search thread, but only threads regarding random discussion about the lte version pop up.
Lol the LTE model hasn't been released yet... Sooooo yeah.

Rogers Samsung Galaxy S 2 lte
The Snapdragon processor will mean a delay on any custom ROM cooking until it is released. I pre ordered but feel confident it will get a lot of the ROM' s and kernels from G S 2 HSPA+ i9000.
What is the device name for the LTE? ~model. Number

Hello
I am dumbing stupid T mobile half G network in Lexington,KY
But I am torn apart between the original att Galaxy s2 i777 OR the skyrocket
Now I know somewhat the exynos cpu in i777 is a fantastic cpu so it might be a plus for i777...But for future LTE (I doubt it would be so near in my city) i727 is a future proof !!
Also concerned about some who say bad battery life with skyrocket because of no LTE on/off ability ...
Please you're opinion...I have no LTE in my city and it might not be the case in the very near future...
Galaxy S2 or Skyrockey ? which is better ? speed of phone ? speed of 4G ? camera ? general feel ?
Thanks
Please, PLEASE, use the forum search. SO MANY i777 vs. Skyrocket threads...

Hello All
Okay this might sound like a noob question, but will it be possible for the devs to port some of the cool S3 features like Smart Stay, and the ability to call someone from the SMS window to the S2?
I mean I just wanna ask that since the S3 kernel has now been released, are we going to see custom S2 ROMs in the future with S3 features? Because some of the cool new features are hardly dependent on the new S3 hardware. For example, Smart Stay.
Thanks,
yes why not, just wait for it
i'm waiting for this too patience is a virtue!

Actually I meant that if you have an SMS conversation open and when you put up the phone to your ear, it automatically dials the number.
Apparently you can flash the full S3 stock ROM on a S2, just search it. I assume this gives you all that functionality. And there are workarounds to get S Voice on your phone. I don't know about the other stuff.

Cite your source please.
I find this EXTREMELY hard to believe, as the S2 doesn't have the hardware to support all the features in an actual full S3 firmware.
More likely, you saw an S2 ROM that contained the TouchWiz UX port, and themed to look as close as possible to an S3.

your are wrong dear , and you may make someone hardbrick his phone if he read your post , flashing firmware of any other phone even if it was galaxy s2 but not the international version will end mostly with ahard bricked phone " you can say that apiece of plastic"

I think you misunderstood the context of his post. It appears that juzerali was agreeing with MY post, which was expressing a high amount of doubt that there exists a full s3 ROM that is flashable to an s2.

Well then I apologise, I'm still at a laptop, I thought a search would be able to validate what I said. Obviously I don't mean that someone should flash a ROM meant for the S3 on a S2! But thanks for the good community involvement...
There are threads about the S Voice workaround though (I'm still on phone so difficult to reference source, sorry)

no need to apologise , there are alot of people that they will not search before flashing there phones so that they may flash the s3 directly and then they will come here and say , what is the wrong with my phone
btw , s-voice is working nice in my phone , just edited tow lines in the build.prop
so that it will think my phone is 19300 and the server can't filter out my data
and i heared that , there is modifeied s-voice that will work without modifing build.prop , don;t know

Here's what I read earlier: you can use the s3''s UX Launcher on the S2:

http://www.google.co.za/url?sa=t&so...4YnXDw&usg=AFQjCNG_qWkR2-JMd4jeEYwr8toM34Gs2Q
But I don't believe the UX Launcher gives you the 'cool' capabilities of the S3...or maybe it does?

Yes you can use the s3 launcher but sure will not give you the awesome features , just hope that we can use some software features that aren't hardware related in our beloved s2

I think its not possible, because its works due to sensor that mean by hardware... which is missing in S2...

May be it is nice to port s3 features to s2 but then the power requirements may be more and your battery may not be sufficient. And most of the features of the s3 thar are not in s2 are power intensive.

thanks for the info,I did have it in the wrong section and I have searched for two days now and all I see is forums and answers regarding the i717 and N7000 I was just curious about the new tmobile version
The t-mobile version is very close to the at&t and other North American carriers version but it has a slightly different radio and video chip.
You root it the exact same way as at&t except when you enter recovery its slightly different; using the charger cable is part of the steps.

Hello guys,
Sorry if this thread were should be opened in another forum because I'm new here (from your grateful video - I'm noob).
Look, I have Samsung Galaxy SIII I9300, and I have a problem with the Lock.
After that last update that Samsung released to the devices, I've installed it but after that when I tried to lock my device (click on the right side button to lock) after couple of minutes or random time the screen is unlocked by him selves, and locked back after couple of seconds and thats happening a lot of times.
I've tried to turn off all the settings like the movement sensors, voice sensor everything I could think about, even I read that if I pull off my SIM card it may solve my prolem and the problem is with the SIM or something but I tried that and I still had the problem.
Maybe you guys can help me or you know how to fix that or maybe you had this problem in the past?
In Thursday I will give my device to the store I bought the device from.
-----------------------------------
Another question, I've saw many forums abiot the device "Samsung Galaxy S3" but its the same device no? why there is like 5 forums abot this device? with the names: "Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile, AT&T" and etc ?
What are those devices?
Thanks in advance for any help, please it is very important to me!
Not completely sure about your 1st main question but to answer your second question, the reason why there are other Galaxy S3 forums is because this is the International Galaxy S3 for example UK and europe. Verison and AT&T and Spirit and others are the different versions within America. Each has a different name. For example the International UK version are mainly GT-I9300 where as Spirit is SPH-L710. It makes all the difference when downloading the correct roms. Because if you downloaded a rom made for the SPH-L710 Spirit Galaxy S3 and flashed it to the International GT-I9300 then you could completely brick your device and would have one really expensive door stop or paper weight.
Hope this helped.
