Do you need unlimited data plan or something similar for tethering?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S3
Nope... but T-Mobile (the bastards) limit you to 500mb and you have to pay for the service.
You basically are forced to root if you want to use wifi tethering free of charge if you have an unlimited data plan with t-mobile.

Definite improvement in speed. I get 31mbps down and 13mbps up when I tested with 2 bars signal. That's almost double what I got on my s3 4g.
The best part... I get that signal in my crib.
... I can't wait to root and tether once my replacement s4 come in the mail.Sent 7 days ago using Pre-Stamped Post Card purchased through Fulton County Jail commissary via USPS
Hey can anyone tell me how to record a voice memo on the phone? I know it can be done. For instance if I want to send record a message and send it to someone, what would I use?
I've never used it, but there's a Voice Record app.
I would think you just use it to make a recording and then attach the file and send via text message, email, etc.
it was super easy with BBM.
i don't know how to do it with android phones but my girl has the new s4 and she does.
let me find out and get back atcha.
edit: she says it's done with s-memo. just record and then send it via text or email, etc.

Does anyone incoming text using Handcent ever seem to duplicate? Mine does it a lot and it's very irritating?
On my version of android I have an app called Sound Recorder, you should have that, comes with the phone, possibly from Samsung or a Google app.
I personally use GoSMS. You may try disabling normal sms notifications? Is it you're receiving the text from normal sms and handcent? Or just two messages at a time from handcent?
Installing or updating
Yeah if the message is too long it does that, but I haven't figure out a way to stop it besides shortening the message.
Go to the play store...open settings and uncheck..."automatically update apps"....
I keep getting games installing themselves automatically
give me the name of one of the games..... sounds fishy...
I've deleted all of them but "Dragon Empire" installed itself today

you have malware partna....the reason you don't realize it is because it's not actually on your phone it's on some other device that you use.--- i.e. the malware on your laptop is logged into your google account and installing shit on your phone..change the your google account password and see if that stops it...
I just recently switched from the HTC one to the galaxy note s3. I was not a fan of Samsung's ui. Due to owning a galaxy tab. But I've gotten used to it. Though I probably won't use all the features the note 3 has to offer

my earbuds that came with the phone have died. anybody suggest any replacements that aint expensive? because every new pair i buy dont sound anywhere close to the same as those that came with the phone. so far the ones i've tried have cost up to 20$ but the bass aint close to how the originals sound.
Man just go ahead and buy a nice wireless pair now because they all will continue to break. Before you know it, you'd waste 100+ dollars. Went to best buy and copped me some wireless Bose joints for 200.

nah, i aint trying to go that hard. I only listen to it when i hit the gym. Just thought maybe i could get some comparable to the ones that came with the phone which shouldnt be anymore than 20. was hoping sprint sold replacement pair.
These Monoprice earbuds are the best sounding earbuds for their price. Arguably beating out other earbuds at 10 times the price.
$8
They are not super bass heavy which is fine with me because I use PowerAmp's EQ to my liking.
Use these Foam Tips for extra comfort.
Late pass but I'll probably be getting the S3 soon for http://www.straighttalk.com . They don't offer the s4 nor the note so that's what I'm stuck with as the best android phone that they offer.
I'll probably read through this thread for tips.

I have some skul candy that sounds good..
Funny thing is I heard iPhone 5 buds was good...girl at work lost her phone and when the replacement came it had some..she already had the others and gave me these...
Sound horrible. Ima try them on an iPod to see if its just phones need compstible buds

I no longer have this phone. I now have the Note 3 and it's an identical thread that MadWun made on it.
