Switching phones with someone else. - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

My dad is due for an upgrade and is thinking of getting the s4. He doesnt really know how to use anything from a technology standpoint so he is willing to let me have it and he'll take my s3. My question is do I need to be completely stock to switch phone numbers etc...? Thanks for any help.

Nah, just put your sim card in the S4 and his in the S3.

Hey thanks man. Do I need to activate his first or will mine act like a new one in the s4?

If you put yours in the S4 then the S4 will be active with your phone number. Your dad will have to get his SIM card activated to use on your S3

The only thing better than our phone is the screen.... a lot of ppl say its really laggy the att version at least. We will see

Note is nice but I personally think its too big. I see it more of a business phone, not personal at all.
Yea it is big but my boss has the att one and its really nice and we all know T-Mobile is faster so who knows might have different specs just thought it was cool that we might be getting one

I had the note briefly and LOVED it, returned it cause there wasnt a stable modem/radio for us Tmo users...if this is true, im 100% back!!
Yay?

I still haven't had time to play with a Note yet, but its intriguing to say the least. It definitely looks a bit too large to use as an everyday phone but I'll give it a shot at least
You probably will be happier with the s3, it will be the next Gen phone.
Get the note if you need a tablet phone or high Res screen for more icons on the app drawer or something. I'm gonna wait for the s3 just because of the flagship and the proper balance of features and size and weight

If it comes to Tmo hopefully its the same but with an s4 processor

I'm really really really hope it's the Note! But, my next upgraded phone will be a toss up from the sgs3 or the note!

My uncle has the international version so I've had the opportunity to work on this device here and there. Using it daily really doesn't wind up feeling a ton bigger than the t989, only problems I've experienced are certain apps can't figure out if it's a tablet or a phone, so there's a fair amount of compatibility issues, but it's very slick.
But, and a big but, that phone is a Gen behind the s3

why does verizon s3 not have the changable screen mode??

i have seen it on some s3 tips videos where you can change screen mode to different things example is movie mode.....my verizon s3 does not have that
At&t doesn't either

Nor the sprint version. I read a post saying only the international version has the option and I'm inclined to believe it.

I also looked into this, sad, can't find this feature.

Maybe someone can pull it from an i9300 fw?

It's been great!

First of all I want to thank everyone who has done development for this phone, been here for a long time and was my first android. I still have the phone and will be using it. Upgraded to gs3 lets see how that goes

Test Version Of GSIII?

Hey everyone, I recently traded my Galaxy Nexus for the GS3 and normally, I get right down to the rooting/unlocking/flashing process, however one thing has been holding me back. The gentleman that I traded my device with worked directly for Samsung and said that the GSIII that he was giving to me, was in fact a development testing device only given out to employees. I was wondering if there is a way to verify this as I know that this could be a potential gateway to future discoveries if this is in fact the case. If any of you have thoughts on this then please share. I've been itching to scratch this flashing bug of mine -_-
Could you post a screen shot of your device "about section"

Sure. Here it is.
Doesn't look any different than mine at first glance.
I hope you didn't pay extra

Alright cool man thanks lol I didn't pay anything actually, It was a straight up trade Nexus for Galaxy S 3

This is what a test phone from HTC looks like.
If this person's claims are true, you should go to the IRC and chat with the devs there.
They could possibly find useful information before you get to using your device as normal- again, assuming this is true.
Yeah I think I'll do that. Will keep you guys posted if anything interesting comes from this

That is a VERY test device. I had a few pre-release rezounds that did not look like that. Also I had an inc4g that was normal

Does it have engravings on it? If not then I'm pretty sure it's just a normal device

How do you become a phone tester? I've always wondered because that would be sick (I'm assuming that's how you got them).

Great info.

What phone should I buy on Verizon??

I'm thinking about getting a new phone real soon so I wanted to know what you guys think is or will be the best phone to pick up and why because I'm stumped do I go Samsung or Motorola so help me out guys I'm rocking the s3 but getting bored so I need something new!
Thanks guys!
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda premium
Best phone on Verizon right now is arguably the LG G2 that just came out today.
Probably not the right forum for this kind of topic though.
Either the g2, droid ultra, or the note 3

If you want to root and have roms, search the forums and see what kind of dev love the phones are getting.
