Hi, here comes my first post/complain on my great s-3.
ME specs I9300, base band v-i9300xxella, 4.2.1.
Regular user, on WIFI rarely on 3G.
Now my phone gets much slower than before for past 1 month. Its Oct12 purchase with regular updates. I mostly use Yahoo mail, gmail, SG email app exchange for my MS account + skype, whatsapp, ym, fb and chrome browser. And Avast app with Anti-theft. couple of top rated games.

I feel my SG gets heated at bottom back for a continuous 15 to 20 mins use on browsing + ym or whatsapp together. Hardly use to watch videos in fb as well. And there i find the phone lags, again i am not using all above at once, but may be 2 to 3 apps at same time multi tasking. But i noticed for a month now as it lags and slows down very much.
Is there a problem noticed like mine for others. what should i do? like factory reset or anything will help ? Battery is average but thats not a problem now. Real problem is lagging / slowing down which irritates me. I have to restart some times as it just struck in blank screen for more than a Minuit or 2....
Most times ram use is approx 750 out of total 832mb
please assist.....

Optimus G or S III? I was gunning for S4 when I realized that S3's camera is better than S4's (probably not in terms of quality, but it's wider) So I realized that S4 isn't that good and Samsung could do better, so I'm gonna for something else for now and just wait for S5/S6 probably... So back to the question, Optimus G or S III? Other suggestions are welcome. If you could explain why you like the one over the other, that would be nice, thank you.

Syrus, 27 Apr 2013Hi Anthony....Its seems like you are using Skybox for your US shopping. I've few questions if ... moreYour best bet is to go to Skybox.com yourself and read more about it. I did that but I heard amazon will expand their market to Australia, so I wait a bit.

So unless there are others That also want to know about this, I don't think this is the place.

[deleted post]Hi Anthony....Its seems like you are using Skybox for your US shopping. I've few questions if u r using their service. I live in china and I am also thinking of using this. Is it free to sign up? Coz I tried to sign up.....I was asked to pay $38.
1) How they handle custom duty? Do I need to pay up-front or after delivery. They have sth called "Calculator" for determining shipping & custom duty. I simply tried this, it is ridiculous that it shows custom duty on everything....which is not true. Coz I have bought lots of mobile phones, electronic stuffs etc through the help of my frens in US. They send me via USPS china.......and I have never paid custom duty here.

Here is a catch. If anything delivered to china via fedex or UPS....I have to pay custom duty. As long as things are sent via regular USPS....no tax:)

So, my question is ...can I instruct skybox on how my package to be delivered? I do not mind paying $38 to skybox if their service is good.

All I want is ....my packages to be delivered to china via USPS. Also, there are lots of restriction on things i can import from US....but its only on paper.

Anonymous, 27 Apr 2013why is it that there are many versions of Galaxy s III? which is the best?There are only 2 main version of S3>>>GT-I9300(3G) and GT-I9305(4G) the other models are just designated to a certain country like South Korea, Canada, USA,Japan, China...etc.You'll be safe to have either GT-I9300 (3G) or GT-I9305 (4G) both are international models and will work flawless with any mobile carriers.

Freefaller™, 27 Apr 2013@ Dee™ I've bookmarked Amazon UK page for you. Still waiting for stock at the moment.The battery I ordered finally shipped.
Should be at the most Miami address by Monday.
So I should have it in my hands by Wednesday or Thursday :)

It just hit me that the case for the battery has no kick stand.
So now I need a kick stand case for the case. Lol
