Hello,
I just wanted to say hi! I currently have a HTC EVO for sprint and was going to buy the N4....but after the N4 going out of stock in less than 20 minutes in the US today, I have decided to get the SG3 for verizon this weekend. I can't wait to buy and root! Looking forward to the SG3 and the great dev community at XDA!
Welcome! We have some great stuff going on, and JellyBean is leaking out!
Thanks! and I am looking forward to JB for sure!

welcome on board. Here are some tips before you start. Backup your IMEI and unlock the bootloader before flashing any ROMs.
Hoping to snag mine on black Friday from Sam's club. Love the dev support this phone is getting.

I honestly don't see why everyone has such a problem with no SD card slot on phones. You really need to carry so much info with you in your pocket?
That's what I have a computer for. And dropbox/Google drive.
I wish more phone makers would move away from slots and removable batteries. The phones would be more sleek and have more room for other features

I agree 100%.
I was immediately interested in this phone until I saw these two items.
I could probably live with the limited storage, but I will NEVER buy a phone with a non-removeable battery.

I can understand that, but I've actually already filled up my 32gb gs3. Even still 16gb isn't bad and I personally don't care too much about a non removable battery. However, the dna's battery sounds relatively small for the high spec guts it has plus that 1080 lcd.
That's also not to mention how bleak the prospect of development seems. Not to bash it, but the gs3 still has some pros

I'm already suffering the issues of low memory with my 16GB of space. Downloaded Need for Speed Most Wanted and that took a large chunk of space. already have other games that are taking up 7GB of space alone. then god forbid if i want to download some lossless songs from Spotify. thats almost 400MB an album. I can't put that on the SD card, unless i'm missing something in the way spotify saves music.
So Yes. I do need to carry that much info on my phone.

In a word, yes. All of my music is FLAC encoded; my 32GB S3 is totally full, and the 32GB MicroSD I have in it has about 3GB left, and that's just from about 50-100 albums. Honestly, I'd love a 128GB MicroSD right now... plus where I am 3G is unusable (40KB/s down D: ) and thus streaming makes absolutely no sense for me. No SD card slot makes any phone a no-buy for me.

Its not 16gb its really
11gb useable storage.
I just cant live with that.
GOOGLE and LG did the same thing with the Nexus 4
Conspiracy time: why put so little storage?
Maybe to force people to use PAY cloud based storage like Drive and backup assistant.
Dont forget the data charges store and access those GB of cloud data.
Games nowdays can be over a gig and I have 6gb+ of music. Not everyone wants to use the cloud to stream music and movies. Not only does it kill your battery but if you are in a bad area for signal you are SOTL. I also always have some movies on my phone for my 3 year old when we go out to dinner it keeps her calm. I have a 32gb gs3 and a 64gb card I don't have to worry about space on my phone.

I should have added this: I wish phone makers would move away from SD card slots, however, give higher internal storage options.
Like I said before, I personally have no use for large storage space because I have my laptop for that. Plus my car has a built in hard drive for music and that's really the only time I listen to music. I can see how other users fill up fast, though. 128GB GS4, anyone? Lol

What's more surprising is that you didn't do your homework before you bought the phone.
You're probably one of the only one's with this phone who has a problem with the lack of mem slot. The other 99.9% of us were fully aware of this, and didn't care, as I don't see how I could fill up all 16gb, given that there are cloud music services and what-not nowadays.

How does internal memory sucks?
I mean, the SD Card feature is really nice to have and silly not to include it. But it was not included because there wasn't enough room for it with NFC and all of that.
It sucks that we don't have sdcards but we can live without it. Am I saying future phones shouldnt feature it anymore? No. I think it should definitely stay. But can we live without them? Sure.
my biggest complaint about lack of sdcard is all the people who refused to get this phone due to it saying no sdcard slot is stupid they would never buy a phone that has "locked" storage... and then pull out their ipod...

It's even funnier when people criticize the phone (way back when it first came out) and was like without a sd card, you cant flash ROMs. That's what makes me laugh so hard. If they made the iNAND to be 32GB instead of 16GB I bet it would of made more consumers happy
The whole no sdcard is a misconception because they think the phone itself doesn't have storage.

Classic! Although I filled an sd with 16g already all it took was many 720 p recordings on the epic camcorder, 4 movies (hangover, pulp fiction, kat williams pimp chronicles, and lord of war) plus half my music collection. Oh and about 15 diff nandroids which can get pretty big (that's what she said). It really was pointless keeping all that on the as but I did because I could

Google doesn't have minimum hardware requirements on anything about Android which is one of the reasons why its so open but fragmented.
Manufacturers didn't listen to Google anyway when they wanted to add softkeys as seen on the gnexus. GS3? Old layout, capacitive, and single physical button. HOX? New layout but capacitive.

Hi
Personally I would like an SD slot to be available on all Android devices. I would have loved for the HTC ONE X to have an expandable memory slot as I have had a few HTC devices and always been happy with them. My upgrade is due in a few months and for me anyway that is THE only deciding factor for choosing the Galaxy SIII over the One X. Both in my opinion are very good handsets and certainly do what I would want to do with them. But was gutted to see that there was no expandable slot. Yes, I know in these days 'Cloud services' will cater for most peoples needs, but I dont know why but I have always been wary of such services. Again, yes...I know, I am probably just being paranoid but for me nothing beats a memory card slot. :good:
All the contrary

Unfortunately, this is now all the contrary. Nexus devices will never have a SD slot, and Google would like manufacturers to do the same.

Can you cite a source for that last snippet of info?
Google have, to my knowledge, never dictated hardware to manufacturers for Android.
Internal memory is only going to get bigger, with 16GB being the minimum, and then a couple of years later 32GB will be the minimum.
OTG will remove the need for the removable feature as you will be able to get card readers to plug into the phone's socket.
With 4G speeds syncing to a cloud will be quick so the security/privacy/data loss through involvement with a toilet risks will be out weighed, or you'll sync to your home PC (something I'd much prefer) rather than through a 3rd party.
While it would be cool, I do not think google would ever do it.

Sent from my Inspire 4G using xda app-developers app
There is a thread for this very issue. My question would be what about the Inspire do you think needs to upgraded? Faster processor, bigger screen, better camera?
For my next device, I want a faster processor, more ram, more storage, a front facing camera and a bigger screen without giving up anything that the Inspire provides. I haven't found it yet. I like the sexy heavy duty construction, this phone makes Samsungs feel like toys. The HOX has a higher end feel than the Sammies, but has no sd slot. Not interested in iOS or Windows. I have high hopes for the next round of Nexus devices but have to wait until there is more than just rumor to know if that's where I go next.
It's going to be about what you need, want and can afford. Without know more about that, I cannot make a recommendation.
Now I'm in a Pickle

I'm watching the video now, Google is doing a great job.
Google won't release source until the Nexus 4 is released. Then i bet the Galaxy Nexus will be the first to get a custom build going. THEN we might see some AOSP ports for the S3. Who knows when but i wouldn't hold my breath. My guess is Spring time 2013. Glad i still have my GN, might have to trade back with the gf lol.
We don't even have 4.1 yet, and there is no hope of a stable build till an official VZW release. All the AOSP JB roms you see have issues.
We can expect 4.2 on this phone by the time KeyLimePie is announced, if we're lucky.
off topic but i really want htc & moto to make a nexus. i was hoping the rumor of multi-oem's making them would come true.
No 4Glte or sd card slot. No thank you I'll pass.

Sadly they won't. But even then with no sd card slot and only a max of 16 gigs which translates to what about 11 or 12 gigs? I'd still pass. Thank for rooting and AOSP on this SIII
In November we will have 4.2. That's because T-Mobile gets first dibs on the nexus 4. And those files will eventually end up in devs hands a day after the release. Have no worry guys we will see sweet key lime pie!

4.2 isn't KLP
Considering the 10 for the family's first tablet. Movies on long drives, multiple user accounts, and great size for keeping around the living room for common use. Now, is 32gb worth $100 more?

Considering the lack of MicroSD slot, I'd say it's the only way to go. Unless you use a lot of cloud storage. But that won't help on long drives...

Guess it comes down to how much hassle I want. If I used the cloud I'd have to only keep 1 or 2 movies for offline viewing, and recycle as necessary to manage 16gb. Gonna have to think about this one. $100 of storage versus $100 of accessories and play store purchases.

I've read people say they can plug external hard drives into their Nexus 7, I wonder if that will work well on the Nexus 10 as well.
