S3 from USA

[marine1]

My old man has one he bought there while on holiday and he keeps getting all the upgrades way way way before I do
So bloody unfair, You must see his new Samsung S3 OS, it has a whole lot of new features.

America is a huge market for Samsung, and the dreaded iPhone home turf, that's why they get everything first.

In South Africa nobody is a threat to Samsung, so they don't have an urgency to roll out updates.

Yip, clearly you are right

4.1.2? Flash via Oden if you want it now.

I am waiting for the official XFA (unbranded South African), but if you want can flash XFE (possibly vodacom branded) on Sammobile: http://www.sammobile.com/firmware/?page=3&model=GT-I9300&pcode=XFE&os=1&type=1#firmware

XFV is Vodacom. XFE might be 8ta.

Slootvreter told me that he loaded XFE and it boots up with the Vodacom logo...

Just use the Omega ROM, like I do. The multi-window thing is pretty brilliant, and it even works with other launchers so you don't need to stick to the ugly Touchpiss one.

Links seem dead

Any internet issues like tethering. I read someplace that some roms are incompatible with the local networks hence the modem software does not work so well, is that true ?

 

[marine1]

Would be nice to find a working link

Come to my house and I will sign you up for the "Ockie S3 LTE trade in program".

Come alone or the deal is off!

Then his sales code is still XFV.

Slootvreter is doing it wrong.

Sales code? How do you change that?
