UPDATES! for your phone samsung S3

Peter KG6LSE

IF you are on verzon do NOT update to 4.3 Its a total mess .

They are pushingng updates . RESIST them ! ....

I took the risk and now I have a slow useless phone . I am off to get a new phone Unlocked I am gonna root it and NEVER update it ..There goes another 500 bucks ..

any one want a glass door stop ? . .........

Heater.

Peter,

Before you mash the phone in the door stop role and or blow 500 dollars you might want to install a cyanogenmod. They have a version for "Samsung Galaxy S III (Verizon)"

Failing that I'll send you my address. I can always use more door stops.

Americans do seem to have a hard time being screwed over by their phone providers.

oh I am not gonna mash it . Its just now a paperweight .

now that KNOX is installed you cant root it . and my phone was the Open dev edition .

once you hit 4.3 and then knox there is no way to root with out it being bricked .
