i9305 buzzer/minijack into i9300 - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I would just like to know if the speaker and mini jack part works on both i9300 and i9305 because I can buy broken i9305(only screen is broken) and it's cheaper for me because it comes with original battery which my i9300 lacks and I know you can't change mainboard without modifications so I only want to know if I will be able to use this part on my i9300 http://www.easyphix.com.au/assets/full/S93-LSP-WH-G2.jpg

I risked it and bought it and it works just fine

[Q] Using Galaxy s3 Motherboard for experimental device

Hello everyone, I have what some may consider a bizarre question. I am wondering if it is possible to use a galaxy s3 motherboard for an experimental device. For example, buy a screen assembly of a larger size, maybe 10 inch and use the motherboard to power it up. If its not possible with this phone in specific, could it be with another one? In case that it were possible, what would be the complications involved with this process. Thanks!

Galaxy S3 screen failed after contact with water. Suggestion needed

Hi,
My Galaxy S3's display stopped working after contact with water. Touch works but display does not work.
Display and touch replacement(touch and display are embedded together in S3 so need to change both) costs around Rs.8000 ($131). But there is a phone named Galaxy S3 Neo which costs just Rs.12000 ($196) and is almost the same configuration of Galaxy S3 I9300.
I am not sure how S3 Neo differs from S3 I9300 in performance. Please suggest me whether I can replace the S3's display or go for brand new S3 Neo.
neo vs s3 intl
Does the neo have gorilla glass ? Make sure then buy . S3 i9300 is Exynos chipset and s3 neo i9300l is qualcomm . You decide , in my opinion go for the neo if possible as its a newer phone and more ram and posibility of a lollipop upgrade .
open the phone, clean it and make it dry and pray a lot...
but I think the situation is almost hopeless
It's time for device upgrade.
If you wish to keep the device, maybe look for screen replacement, make sure to get original replacement

Will I be able to update this I9300 to >4.4?

I'm new in Android world, and I have to buy cheapest Android phone that will be able to handle Android 4.4 or newer.
I have found that the best option is Galaxy S3 and that there's one on Aliexpress. I'm aware that it might be a clone but it will not be my primary phone. It just has to be able to handle newer Android.
Can't post a link, search for the top ordered Samsung Galaxy S3 I9300 on Aliexpress.
Has anyone tried it? Will software see it as genuin S3? Thank you!
if it's a real i9300 then you are only able to upgrade via custom rom. Official support via samsung stopped at 4.3
If You need official KK (4.4), then You must search form S3 4G/LTE (9305). Basic S3 ended with 4.3 (as maultasche said).
This must be S3? If not, try search Moto E - it's cheap and small chance to buy fake one - in S3 (generally in Samsung phones) it quite ease to buy fake/copy when your search for cheap phone.
You are right, thank you! And I will check Moto E but what about S3 Neo?
S3 Neo has 4.4.
You can check every Samsung phone here: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/
Just type model name/code (S3 or 9301) and it will find all/latest version of firmware.
It you want a phone for calling/texting (and using in general), you should list your needs/requierements/max price and ask what to choice - XDA probably has a place for it.
If you want a phone for testing/development Android apps, you should think about Motorola/Nexus or some new models with offical long support (ie Xperia family).
I just need a >4.5" phone for general use, with at least 4.4 (to use with smart watches and bands). With as low cost as possible. Galaxy S3 Neo is my leader now.
I don't know where I You from, what models ara in your country and in what prices, so it's hard to suggest any model.
I suggest You to use some kind of price comparation site (in our country), choice your requierements and list devices. Then choice what you like (what looks nice to You) and has a good price.
Then paste list of interesting devices.
For example there are couple of cheap models named "Core" or "Grand" (from Samsung) with screen size obove 4.5 inch and new Android.
Downsides are: not so "strong" CPU/GPU (for games) and lack of light sensor - it shoudn't be a issue as You want to use smartwatch anyway.
In my opinion s3 is best choice As long as there is ANY chance to get some cm (official/ unofficial)

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You can upgrade it even to marshmallow why KitKat?
As we are expecting the official cm to release tomorrow so I think that s3 is the best choice. And if you just like touchwiz s3 has 4.4.4 ports from touchwiz and you can install them. But I recommend you to install lollipop 5.1.1 rom if you buy a s3 device. You chose the best device if you want any help on how to flash these roms just reply my post.
