Big debate. S3 or One X

[Jay]

If I did want to change the CSC what would I have to change it to?

There are loads of codes in CSC change...

Think it's BTU for unbranded, some branded devices may have different CSC's:
3 = H3G
O2 = O2U
Orange = Ora
T-Mobile = TMU
Vodafone = VOD

Is the official UK JB update coming this month for the S3? I look forward to using it!

Sometime this month, but then you got to wait for your network to have their mods added to it and released if it's a branded/contract phone. Which is why I went for the Polish release. It's dead easy Khare, download Odin attached to this this thread and the Rom from the download link in the first post.

Install Kies (needed for drivers, otherwise Odin won't see the phone while in Download mode)
Extract Odin and the downloaded ROM
Power down the phone.
Hold Home, Volume down and power    - this get you into Download mode
Press Volume up to confirm you're going to flash a "custom rom"
Start Odin (as Administrator on Vista-7-8)
Connect phone
LEAVE all options in Odin as they are.
Click PDA and browse to the extracted ROM and Start.

Wait 5 minutes while it's flashing, sweat like a pig hoping you don't have a power cut mid flash, wait for it to rebuild the Davlik cache, bingo bongo you've got an Official JB. It's VERY smooth. I've seen people say it's a little smoother, bollocks, it's a LOT smoother. Install NOVA Prime launcher and prepare for awesomeness!

Carphone warehouse s3 here, so no waiting for bloating. I want to keep this phone free of root for a while, I'm enjoying it standard, it's so much better than a One X, anyone looking at either of them should not even think about the HTC.

[Jay]

There are few reasons I'd root my S3 - it just doesn't need it, TouchGizz on the S3 is packed with enough features to not need root. With Jelly Bean & launchers like Nova and Apex - dare I say it - who needs CyanogenMod?  The only reasons I've found for needing root are trivial things, more for the lolz than making the phone better!

Official Jellybean update release progress....

I can't wait for Jellybean, even if it's only for the new addition of 'descrete mode' on notifications and the god forsaken led blinking brightly at night! 

[Wazzzer]

can't you just turn the LED off on ICS?

[thai-wronghorse]

Yes, but i like the led and notifications working during the day time and when charging. With jellybean you'll be able to set the times of day they become 'descrete' which is great for undisturbed sleep or not having the inconvenience of switching it all off every night.

[Wazzzer]

Ah ha. I'll sort that on mine now as it bugs the hell out of me too!
