Thank you guys. Goodbye and Ill miss ya - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Got a Galaxy S3 for christmas and traded my S2 for a 16GB N4. I have met several nice users here and developers. But I'm moved on. Maybe one day ill be back.

As well as I. I however, will continue to browse these forums. And maybe when I pick up a job or someone stops using their S2 and wants to donate it, ill continue kanging the s2. Im still trying to learn kernel work. Anywho, the S3 is amazing im sure you will enjoy it!

I know it but Walmart have them for $98 bucks. Good deal. I like the hardware on the N4 it feels lighter than the S3 actually and screen wider. Its super fast. Its a combination of a low memory rom (vanilla jb) and being a quad-core!

Github source for SPH-L710!

https://github.com/EpicCM/SPH-L710_NA_Kernel
Kernel source from Samsung?
Is the github kernel the same kernel that Samsung listed for the SPH-L710 on thier Open Source Release site?
Yes, it is. Its also up under the SGS3 orginization, just to keep everything together: https://github.com/sgs3/SPH-L710_Kernel

Can't wait for the devs to get their phones and see if we can combine all the US forums.
This is excellent news! The development on other phones I had was a bit slow because the source kernel was never posted by the manufacturer. Here Samsung posts the source before everyone even has the phone. This forum is going to explode.
Looking forward to good things here guys!.....THNX for posting this here noobnl!
Here we go, watch devs do their magic;-)

I wonder how many Evo 4G (OG) people are coming over to the S3.
I am still so in love with my phone, it will be hard to let it go, but I'm brining my sister over to Sprint, so she will take that and at least it will stay in the family.
Really hoping we get some top-quality devs like the EVO forums had. I really had a full assortment of ROM's of top quality to choose from.
WOOT!!!!!!

I am coming from the OG EVO as well! (Although the screen broke and I'm using my brothers old EVO Shift, he upgraded to the 3VO.) I am waiting patiently for the phone to drop on Sprint. I've seen places saying it will come on June 29th. I'm actually getting one for my birthday, which is the same day. I hope they'll have the 32gb in stock.
Thanks noobnl.

Hello Galaxy S3 users!

I just jumped ship from HTC, I've been using HTC since I've ever had service, and was loyal to HTC, until this phone just caught my eye and wanting to try something new I went with samsung, I should be getting mine tomorrow or Wed!
So what do you guys think of the phone? And what major bugs (if any does this phone have)
Welcome. You won't regret your purchase. I love mine.

Do you know how easy it is to root? I've never been on a samsung before and isn't Samsung and Cyanogen together? So we should have better CM10 builds than HTC?

I tried the evo lte for a few weeks and I exchanged it for the s3 just the other day. I don't regret it, I had the og evo for 2 years! I do think the evo has a few things better than s3, but if u add it all up, s3 wins out IMHO. Just my 2 cents

I started with a Htc One X, moved over to a Evo Lte, now i just bought the S III and i am absolutely loving it! I had a couple good hacks in dev sections of both devices, dont claim to be a real developer but look forward to digging into this phone and seeing what can be found:beer:

It's been fun E4GT folks

Going to be changing over to either the S3 or EVO 4G LTE (still trying to make up my mind on the phones) My E4GT has been fun as has the community with some great devs from shabby, sb, chris41g, T.C.P. kbizzle and others working on the AOSP roms (I use AOSP dislike touchwiz based roms nothing against the devs they all do great work so much respect)
Wait what about the note 2...or black friday prices for the gs3/evo lte???

At the risk of hijacking your thread, can you tell me what it is about TW roms you don't like? I am not discounting your position but instead just don't see it. LOL I have been using Blu Kuban or Goodness or M'ICS forever and in between I play with CM9, CM10, PA, AOKP etc. To be honest I don't see what the differences are that people talk about.
ahhh why upgrade now when the next gen phones are surely around the corner!
I've had an upgrade for 5 months and just keep waiting for something truly more impressive.. (granted sgsiii is better and beautiful but not upgrade worthy IMHO)
The GS3, experience wise, will be far too much like our GS2's. Especially running TouchWiz. I need something NEW! Theres an upgrade on my account, so ill be picking up an iPhone 5 tonight. Depending on when Sprint gets the next Nexus, maybe ill sell it for $550 and buy it. Apples resell values are amazing.
I know I dont care bud.

Yeah I'm leaning on going Note 2 as well. I just put my GS2 on Craigslist with some great extras included I'm sure it will sell fast
I'm trying to leave as well but I can't sell my device because it's the second asurion replacement that I've gotten broken.
I'm hoping the next one I get actually works because I can't have them send me a gnex or anything, they'll only offer the Evo Design.
Yet they say they don't do upgrades or downgrades.

I dislike TouchWiz in general While I gave it a chance the first month of my phone I just really like/want AOSP. I don't see the need for ui skins over what is already a beautiful OS in my eyes. While I'm sure the roms are fine I stay away from TouchWiz based roms period does not matter how good they are it's just not me.

Cause my S2 is currently acting like a retard (hardware issues) I'm getting it replaced but I needed another phone since there are no in store replacement phones where I'm at right now. Also this was my first phone with Sprint so having a backup was always on my mind. As it is if/when the new Nexus device comes to Sprint I'll drop the cash and pick that up I will be rooting my S3 as it is so makes no difference to me.

Goodbye Sprint
I'm going to bump this thread, I just got fed up with Sprints crappy service and paying for slow or no 4G at all. My point for bumping this thread is to give thanks to the very talented devs producing ROM's and keeping the forum active.
Went to AT&T, signal is really good and 4G LTE is really spectacular.

Will there be a decent amount of community support?

Lately I've been noticing a lot of developers saying that they are going to quit developing for samsung due to the lack of support they are are offering to the community. Do you think this will affect the releases of ROMs or user fixes to the point of not being worth it to buy this device? Thanks.
The community will try to cook rom for all samsung devices, but when these are not very popular or will become old will be abandoned
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Yes, i`am convinced it will be supported well. The GN2 will be even a bigger success as the GN1 i believe. Getting mine in 5 days
I think there will be some type of good support.. I mean it's still pretty early in the release... And I'd still buy it if it's not supported by a lot of roms.. Doesn't take away of how much of a beast the phone is

If anyone has the OG Note, even that device doesn't have amazing support. At least we have CM tho...of which I'm running PA 2.17 CM10. However, as long as the GN2 receives CM10, all will be fine. I'm torn with how I feel about CM possibly abandoning Sammy...the GN2 is really all about features, that's what makes it better. CM just neuters spen features anyways.
I personally am excited for just having the GN2

+1 And there is a big chance Mike1986 is going to develop Android Revolution HD roms`s for the GN2. He allready supports the S3 now.
I have played with the idea of getting the Sprint version when it comes out. But, I would still work on my HTC stuff too. Only problem is that I'm not up for an upgrade and I am not buying this thing right out lol so we will see how it goes.

Goodbye Hercules Community

After more than a year I decided to upgrade to an S3 at least. Could have gotten the S4 but didn't want to deal with the payments and wait on development of roms, kernels, etc. Anyway I really enjoy helping people when I can and I will be keeping track of the Hercules threads even though I am moving on. Thanks for all the good times and to the devs such as Ptmr, rushing, cl3kener, mikey man, thdDude, whx, prbassplayer, and more I know I am forgetting at this time you guys are awesome . Thanks again and I will be seeing you guys around.

The only good things about the Htc one are the design and front facing speakers. The camera is overrated and the lack of a removable battery that you can't exchange turned me away. Not to mention you can not add additional storage. That was a huge factor of why I didn't get it myself. I need at least 48 gb at this time for all my music, videos, and my kids games. Thought about the Note 2 but decided to pick the S4 for now as tmobile told me that most likely the Note 3 will be out in September so if I want I can trade up for it then. Don't know if I will or not I will have to see how good the Note 3 really is when that time comes. For now though I am happy with the S4. It has great features, a powerful battery, nice display, etc. Development for it is growing as well. It has cm, slim bean, aokp, pacman, like the rest of them and other custom roms. Already has overclocking kernels for both cpu and gpu. So it's coming along at a good pace for a device that's less than 2 months old. Anyway, I appreciate peoples comments in this thread and will continue to help anybody if I can . Thanks.
