Ok, first time rooting with a program (odin and casual). In the past with my thunderbolt I think I had to actually type in code. For some reason using odin kind of scares me more than actually coding it myself. It seems to have been on the downloading screen for a while with odin, been about 10 minutes already, in about 20 more minutes I might get a "little nervous" but its nothing I haven't dealt with before. Any thoughts? PS. The whole having to post 10 times before posting in the development forums is annoying, i have been a member of this site for a couple years just read and don't post often because of it though.
Did it work and which phone do you have and on which service?
It worked I'm on Verizon and got the note 2. I can't remember the name of the rom in on

I'm coming from an HTC Inspire. It's been a great phone, but I don't like the direction HTC is going with their phones. I upgrade in March, and have about decided on Samsung. ATT has refurb GS3s for 30.00. My last 2 HTCs have been refurb, and they've been no trouble at all. Being new to Samsung, I'm wondering if there's any thing I should be concerned about with a refurb S3.
Any one out there have one? Any trouble with it?

Yes, I went there first. Looking through the thread, and reading the "Must do info guide for Beginners" sticky posted at the top, it appeared to be a place for more technical questions. Thank you for your help.

Rule 15 will help more than looking through the list of questions. The only exception would be Polls and philosophical questions. Either way no Qs.
I know this is an odd request but I need the picture to show a friend and I cannot find one.
Could someone take a picture of their Galaxy S 3 booting up where it says "Samsung Galaxy S 3 i9300" just before it gets to the glowing Samsung Logo.
Thanks and I'd be happy to mark 'thanks' afterwards. I know it's a weird request haha.

Uh... google?
Also post questions on the Q&A section and not the General section.
My mate needs one without watermarks or branding that he is allowed to use for his blog or something where he won't get into trouble with copyright or whatever. I obviously already directed him to google. He said if needs be he'll register here himself and ask. Though I offered because I already have an account here.
Also I thought this was a general topic, not exactly a 'Q and A' topic so I posted it here.
Its not a topic its a question .
Topic as in open for general discussion .
I would post boot i have no logo .
My then about where it goes. A mod can of course happily move the thread if needed.
He just needs a picture of the words "Galaxy S III GT-I9300" on black as it boots up. Not the spinning blue logo or whatever.
Dunno if I remember correctly but even if you custom flash the phone it should still have that before the rom boots up its own logo etc.

Your topic title indicates a question. The word "Could" always is used for a question hence should posted on the Q&A one.
As for your request I don't know how to take a screenshot with just the text dunno also if that's even possible best is try again with google I'm pretty sure you'll find one eventually.

No, he probably just looked at the google search result for mor than 10 seconds. Scroll through the results. The image is there.. with no "brandingf"
I'll say it one last time.. because I've already repeated myself and asked nicely quite a few times...
My mate doesn't want to use an image from google. I don't understand how that's hard to understand.
This topic isn't a debate about being able to lmgtfy
It's "Hey, if anyone has a moment, could they please snap a pic of their SGS3 booting up. That would be great and I'd love you forever"
Honestly I would have expected the worlds biggest smartphone forum to have delivered by now. It's a very simple request and I have asked nicely and I thought we made it clear what he wanted. You guys are normally so helpful. He's not asking for a custom kernel forged from custom silicone. He's asking if you'd take him a quick pic of your phone on a table/chair/floating in the air, at it's boot up, and be cool with him putting it on his blog.
If it could have been me who could have helped, I would have done it no questions asked.
Actually you haven't repeated yourself at all. This is the first time you've said "not from Google".
Previously you had said:
- no water marks
- no branding
- allowed to use.
All these criteria are met on google. Moving the goal posts now is pointless. Besides this site is indexed on Google. Guess what happens to a picture we post here?!
Jeez. Get a grip

HAHA man they get so upset around here dont they? I dont have a s3 anymore since I am now on the note 3. I would have done it instantly.
Come on people give the OP what he needs and move on. No need to bash him or anything. Sure google works but why go there when there are thousands of s3 users right here?

BTW the logo doesnt change when you flash a new rom. You might have a red wording with custom recovery but thats it

This is a developers forum, not a "help" forum. We're all here to develop, learn from developers and contribute to ongoing development. Of course there may be backlash when we're asked for non-development stuff that is already readily available in the public domain.

First of all i am not going to start a virtual argument over this, and secondly there isn't anything wrong with just helping someone so we all can just move on. Instead everyone wants to poke and joke.

No one helped sadly.. I got a friend of mine whom I knew had the phone to take a picture for my other mate who wanted it and she gave him the express permission to use it. I honestly thought that XDA would have helped me out by fulfilling the actual request within minutes.. I guess I was wrong.
Oh and thanks Jet.

First Questions and help issues go in Q&A and help sections.
Second if you are asking for anything that would normally cost money to purchase then it is not allowed on XDA. If you are looking for key codes to give you invulnerability or something like that, that would be fine. But nothing that would interfere with the developer getting paid for his work.

I am trying to follow directions to unlock my Galaxy Note 3 but the screens I get following the directions do not present the same as the steps show.
Is that something I can ask help for here?

Android Q&A is more useful for generalized questions and not what you're seeking, There's a specific forum for the Note 3 on XDA, You'd get better help there then in Android Q&A.
