    I'm about to buy an S3 but the whole flashing thing confuses me and i don't want to be left out of luck after buying one that won't work or completely work.



    So which companies s3 will work with metro completely and be able to pick up a 4g signal?

    Since you have not bought one as yet, why not just buy the MetroPCS version. No need to flash.

    Agreed...MPCS doesn't flash anymore and even if they did you wouldn't get 4g. Best bet if not going to buy a MPCS SIII, then get a AT&T or TMo SIII and take it to a corporate store adding it to your account via their BYOD (Bring your own device) program.

    As far as I can tell the only difference in the current metro s3 is that its the north American gsm dual-core version as opposed to the international quad-core version.
