Day one with my S3 - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

I've never loved a device so much. I think...I think i'm in love. From the gorgeous screen, to the amazing NFC...to the fact that google just randomly gave me 10$...to the ease of use of the toolkit in the dev section, the simplicity of rooting...the BUTTER smooth interface...its just...its just...ITS JUST TOO MUCH!

cool story bro.

You need a pic with that comment.

did you have to add a prepaid card to get the $10 or just activating activating google wallet?

Yeah, I loved it when google gave me $10 free for google wallet. I got like 6 sodas from a paypass enabled vending machine after that lol.

i mean, i guess my point is...Out of all the android phones i've upgraded to, this one seems the farthest in terms of difference from one to the next. Its just so much better in so many little ways.

I'm coming from the Evo 3d. The S2 came out a little while after the 3d did so i was already stuck. I wasn't disappointed because i loved my 3vo. It was a great phone. Dual core and all. The screen on this new phone is just insane though. Watching 1080p movies and the way the colors just pop is unlike any mobile screen i've seen. I love the NFC too and how you can link nfc stickers to tasker profiles. i know you could do this with the s2 as well but its new to me. Theres just a bunch of little things ya know?

Why is the eBay android app so poor?!

Going from an i4 to this is a nice change, but I am wondering if there is a reason for most of the well known apps being sh*t ? :/ eg facebook and ebay...
Or am I the only one who thinks this? :/
Thanks
James
Try 'Pocket Auctions for EBay' - it's a nice little ebay app

Seriously? One or two apps (Btw I see no problem with the Facebook app) aren't as fancy and you're moving to a completely different platform? Seems a little fickle.

I agree the ebay app is worse than the one on iOS but the facebook for android is not that bad. It's a lot faster than the one on iOS(which is worse and worse every update)..
But a lot of apps are still much better on iOS than android. I wonder why it is not possible on android...
what problems are you having with the official ebay app? Or is it cosmetics? What doesnt it do for you?
Agree with op that eBay app is definately worse than the iOS version but its just one fking app, get over it
Facebook app on android is terrible esp compared to ios same for ebay. Id happily pay for both apps if they were even close to the ios version, they do the job end of day which is nice to still have these.

I understand what she's trying to tell you, but, what does it mean when one shakes their first at something? I don't think I've seen that
Maybe it's because I've just woken up and it hasn't hit me yet... lol

Epic picture.. even more epic is my gf calls me panda too..........
strange world.
Hmm.. this makes me sad face too as I used to call my ex (Randa) panda.. memories
It's funny how popular the nickname Panda is. I never realized.
We all got new devices recently, wife has a tablet also so she has not been on my case lately but Im still using a SGS.
Take it from a guy married for several years. Set up a date night really soon and dont touch your phone the whole time. Big time points to be earned!
Was it you or her that put the phone screen side down?

[Strange Trend] Play

Notice a strange trend?
Perhaps the "Play" name is an indication that the Market was sorely lacking in BDSM content?

LOL... That is kinda funny...
I just noticed the plumbers crack. A whole lot of whips + a butt shot, more disturbing by the minute.
The rise of whip apps is caused by the most recent episode of The Big Bang Theory, in which it's used a lot
Three words. Big Bang Theory.
The whip app was in the last episode and it was funny as hell. You guys should watch more TV. Have to admit I got a huge amount of laughs using the whip at work. Haha!

Lol. Looking at the OP it took me a minute, and a Google search, but I got ya. I was just about to add that its probably because of TBBT, but that's already been said. I'm not even going to lie, I searched for "whip" in the Play Store and downloaded a few of those apps myself. One didn't sound right and the other took forever to load and then when it did load you have to manually switch to the right whip. Sooo.. Did anybody find a good app with the right whip sound and doesn't take forever to load? lol

Crigslist app is gone from the market

I couldn't Find it to download it but I had it on my xoom still here's a link to the apk. It works on my epic 4g rooted. I was shocked and horrified that it was taken down.

The one I posted allows you to save the searches and lets you know when something new has been published. it isn't the one by darkierawr linked which isnt as good.
I have had this app for a almost 2 years now.. this is the best craigslist app hands down.. I wish it was still on the market.
I set this app up, so that everytime a new job in the I.T field was posted in my area, it sent me a notification..
I have my resume and cover letter on my phone.. so I would email it to them within 5 minutes of them posting it.
That is exactly what I do with mine phone and Craigslist app. My last 4 jobs I got because of this app.
I was always one of the first 4 or 5 people to apply
The winning factor in getting a job now a days.
Keep resume as PDF, quick email.. Winning
Can apply for a job while at the Ball Game with ease (done it)
I don;t get it, I have Craigslist mobile on my Epic and I still see all of them on the market.
