You better refrain from tampering with your IMEI....

If you wan use BIS, sell your S3 and buy Blackberry.... Or get a chink0 device, you can easily Change IMEI on that

I got it new...cn I do d reinstallation myself?

Yeah it's quite easy. Google and download "Samsung odin v3.09". Its a zip file. Be careful though cos u have a lot of. exe files claiming to be odin but are actually viruses. Then head up to sammobile.com and download the latest Official rom for i9300 (it's a German rom 4.4.4). When u have downloaded these lemme know. Also make sure Samsung usb drivers are installed on ur system

Hello,

I need to catch up on the newsroom. Only watched the first season then I got busy. If you're going to invest potentially thousands of dollars into something, then yes it should just work right out of the box and I have no qualms with people not wanting to make deep adjustments to it. But at the same time you cannot remain willfully ignorant over how it operates and just expect it to read your mind and do everything for you.

Thanks,

Kies 3 is strictly for devices from the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 upwards.... That is to say Kies 3 only supports Samsung Galaxy Note 3, S5 and Note 4 ✔

You run a custom ROM?

In most cases, it has to do with power saving. You probably have an app doing that.

The board of my S4 (GT-I9505) has fried. Both 9505 and 9500 and all other models use same screen. Anyone interested in getting the screen of S4 should holla at me. I think they fix the screen for about 25K in Computer Village here in Lagos. So we can talk something out. Cheers! smiley

The screens may look similar on the outside but there are often slight differences on the inside. I have i9305 (S3 4G LT) with damaged screen.the scr3en for the i9300 wasnt a perfect fit. I might be wrong tthough for d S4.

Modified
If u r battery and screen are undamaged originals (follow come) we're game. Battery is the deal-maker
Re: Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note 2 & 3 Expert by airsaylongcon: 9:58am On Feb 27, 2015
@tayoast Can you please explain why people want to change their IMEI? What's the rationale behind it?

Also I've got a i9305 as a backup phone running official kitkat rom 4.4.4. Whenever i try to take a s3lfie with the front facing camera, the resulting image is rotated 180degrees even though the image in d view finder is correct. How can i resolve this issue. Thanks in advance

People ask to alter their IMEI to blackberry's or other android device's just so they could:
a - subscribe to BIS @ 1k per month. Works on Android devices.
b - get bonus data from network operators who offer such for Tecno, Nokia X, Infinix devices among others.

About front camera. By pictures rotating, d'you mean they appear like you were in front of a mirror, or it turns upside down?

Hmm... Do people know the implications of "claiming" to be another device by cloning another device's IMEI? I fear Nigerians o!

Regarding the rotated image, it's not a mirror image (vertical flip). IIt's a horizontal flip, my head is at d bottom

In the Nigerian context, what's the 'implication' of altering IMEI? Next to none, if you ask me.

Have you tried other camera apps apart from stock? Use Camera Zoom Fx, let's see if your front camera still rotates.
Re: Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, S4, Note 2 & 3 Expert by Curiouscat: 11:26pm On Feb 27, 2015
And how can someone mute the camera sound of Samsung s4 ,I have tried all to no avail.

Now here is the 411. There's a crack (see pic below) on the outer glass but the screen is perfectly fine as you can see. However I have the outer glass replacement, the battery and a COMPLETE body for S4, including the middle frame where the chrome is and even the Home button. Lol. I wanted to totally 'RE-BRAND' the S4 before the board died on me.
Bottomline, If you are interested... Make me the best offer that you can and nothing less because I won't compromise. Cheers!
