-mustang-, 07 Mar 2013using odin does it mean you rooted ur phone?@ mustang
No, you don't need to root your phone to use Odin. Odin is just a PC software program that can be used to install a different ROM on your phone.
I've used Odin ever since I had my Galaxy S (i9000); and I've flashed my S3 about 6 times now with different ROM's without any problems, and now my S3 Mini twice.
It's a bit daunting the first time you use it because you keep thinking "What if?", but it's a personal choice whether you go for it or not.

There is a lot you can do to improve the battery life on your phone. The biggest drain is the display; always turn the Brightness down to the lowest level you can tolerate.
The rule I use is 'Use it or lose it'. Turn off Living Wallpaper. Not using 3G? Turn it off. I use an app called '2G-3G On/Off' by Curvefish that takes me to the Mobile Network setting in one click. The same goes for wifi, turn it off if you are not using it. Download a decent Task Killer to kill any apps running in the background. I use 'Advanced Task Killer for Froyo' which I have found works well on this phone.

2) the display quality is very different btw ori n fake.
3) check for samsung S voice at the phone, i dont think china version have the S voice..
4) switch off the phone and turn it on again, china phone always come with android logo
for the first time start then follow by samsung logo, original samsung dont
show any andriod logo when u turn on the phone.
