    Goodbye GS3 Forums...You've been great.

    I am going to be trading my GS3 for a RAZR MAXX HD today. I started my smartphone journey with the Droid X>Droid X2>Droid 3>Droid RAZR>Droid RAZR MAXX...Then I went to Samsung. While it was a fresh change, I think I like Moto better than Sammy. Hope I'm making the right choice. I've always got...

    Every time I plug my VZW GS3 into my pc it connects as an "Installer" I have to physically go in and check MTP. This never happened before. Is there a way to always have it connect as MTP?

    Root [Verizon] Difference in root methods???

    When I first got my GSIII I was rooted with Debugs one click. When the OTA JB update came out, it wouldn't let me update. So I called VW and they sent me a new GSIII. I stupidly did the update right away. Without rooting, and protecting it with VooDoo. So, I had to go about rooting with Odin and...

    App Saved Data Transfer

    I have been looking for a few days and haven't been able to find what I am looking for. I downloaded and have been playing Angry Birds Star Wars.

    Fair well

    This is my good bye. On it's way is a shiny new used GS3. Verizon switched me over to it(with my permission) for a warranty replacement for my MAXX. I hope I made a good choice. I have only ever had MOTO phones and thought it is time to test the waters. Maybe I will be back or maybe I will never...

    I think I am going to make the jump to the SIII or the Note 2.

    I was waiting for the RAZR MAXX HD but it isn't a big enough jump to change it for my maxx. So, I will try to get the SIII for now and wait to use my upgrade for the Note 2. I have been with Moto forever and think it is time to test other platforms.

    Help Data Usage Widget

    With the update of the My VZ Data widget, they have taken away auto update on the widget. So now you have to click the widget to open up the app and then it will refresh and you can see how much data you've used. They have technically turned the widget into a shortcut to their app instead of a...

    Click Android Version in Settings>about phone fast until an ICS android comes up. Then touch and hold on the screen until said droid gets bigger and bigger until an animation pops up. Not going to say what it is. You'll have to find out for yourself.
