Are you using android phone then tell us all that how much you take risk for experimenting with your phone.
I always search new things in internet and I try to experiment those things with my phone without having any backup. Real risk is when you don't have any backup. So tell us how much you take risks....
One time I have removed the USB disk dangerously from my computer...wwwohhh still I get goosebumps

The "X is rooted" thread would be a good place to start
Alldroid has a great guide on how to do it. I would link to it, but they say my account is too new to link to outside URLs.
Sorry. I meant Unroot. Anyways, nevermind, I just put the phone in our degausser at work. No more root. Now I have a newphone

Put it in what?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
A degausser. A device with a large magnet that wipes hard drives. It cost like 8 grand. We have the same ones the department of defence uses.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
The phone just won't turn on after lol. Got a new one. The magnets so strong that you can't put your wallet within 10 feet otherwise it'll wipe your credit card.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Wow that is a nastey machine but appearently the only real way to wipe a hard drive is to have it put through a wood chipper lol. People can still pull up stuff after you reformat. Unless you use the petter gutmans way to reformat but that takes days from what I hear

So.... Being a Samsung Galaxy S user for long time, I came to the point where don't feel "fresh" with my phone. I came to conclusion that need change. Tried some launchers, but doesn't feel cool. So now I decided to change my "baby". The two phones I narrowed are HTC one or Sony Z. Do you think guys I am doing right or stick with my S3 (and wait for 4.3)? Any input appreciated...

Agree with you. As mentioned before I picked up HTC One today. Basically is the same ( meaning OS), but somehow feel better...Right now preparing to flash GE ROM,as I'm not a fan of Blinkfeed and "limited" customisation. Tbh,my S3 LTE never gave me any issue (touchwood!), so probably will keep both phones... My point is that with M7 GE will get faster updates, and hopefully smooth experience. Also I'm not fancy all the "extras" supplied with both devices (Touchwizz/Sense). Thankfully, few apps/widgets are available from play store,so will see how it goes...

Other "hidden" thing is,that Samsung will not provide same treatment as for the 9300. The 9305 isn't so widely available thus support could be "neglected"...

Ok, so after a week with the HTC I came back to Samsung S3 LTE. Don't know why, but Sammy just feel right for me.
Guys thanks for all your comments and suggestions.
I am not a Samsung fan boy, but from my point of view Samsung is the best (at least for my needs).
So sticking with S3, skipping S4, but looking forward to S5, which will have non plastic body (hopefully)....
Every test I throw at this is scoring way way low!!! Like not even beating the s4! Or the HTC ONE!!! Is anyone else seeing this?

How is your phone running? If it's running good, why in the world are you worried about a synthetic benchmark?

Bro, I've seen you around a while and believe me, I didn't mean any disrespect. I understand that's low and I guess I would be a little concerned too.
I was just thinking overall that I am more concerned about how my phone is actually running. But I see your point about the low score. I really don't know what could be causing it but good luck bro!

I wasnt trying to b disrespectful either bro. And ya I remember u too. It just sucks paying top dollar for a phone, then seeing less scores than the phones that are 6 months older with the snapdragon 600!! I'm pretty pist about it.
And what makes it worse is seeing another user with the exact same phone scoring 23000!

Yeah, I hear ya bro. I initially was very happy with this phone and I mostly still am. But little things are starting to wear on me and I've been having thoughts of jumping ship.
The community for this phone is surprisingly the least active of any phone that I've ever owned. It's kind of a downer. I understand the whole locked bootloader thing, but it seems like interest is low in this phone but I'm not sure why other than the locked bootloader.
Another reason is the wifi issues. I frequently get the unstable connection message and lately my wifi performance has been terrible. I can't even watch a YouTube video without it constantly buffering.
And it seems like there is no fix in sight from Samsung. Not sure when or if there will ever be a fix.
I got in on that $150 promo code for the Moto X and I'm heavily considering getting one as an extra phone worst case scenario. But if I somehow like it, I might dump this phone and make a little profit in the process. Not sure yet.

I'm not having any issues with WiFi? I.m currently using a Belkin router on 2.4 and 5.0 GHz. You don't have a metal case on do you? Or anything near your router that could be interfering?
I personally wouldn't get rid of your phone either ...You have to remember this phone is still newer, Wait till after Christmas and watch how many more at&t note 3 users come...Development is still young I've seen this stage in almost all my experiences with prior phones. Soon as we get the boot-loader fix,,,Watch how many roms, And ported material fly this way.

Ya mj5. I think it's totally up to u. Mine auto updated, so I didn't have a choice. I wish it would have fixed the power button lag, and I wish they would have left the keyboard white. But ya we have a way to get roms on mj5 and I'm sure a Odin will b out sooner rather than later.

Had the same issue with TB so I used "android tweaker" cuz it's got a ton of mods on the free version including the bravia 3 mod for the screen, wipes dalvick, tons of performance adjustments and battery saving modes (there's some cool 1click settings for battery or performance if the app is too confusing) AND of course it'll remove those stubborn bloatware apps. Be careful though and make a backup of everything you're gonna delete so you don't end up sorry

For the screen to cause fast battery drain like this? Another thing, the device gets immensely hot, very quickly when playing real racing 3. Even on power save. Is that a note 3 thing too?
Edit: would like to add that screen was on 95% of that time

I'm not asking for a magic cure-all, but there's no way in the world I could afford any tablet, not on my payrate. I only got the note 3 by trading a bunch of stuff. I was just under the impression that new devices were supposed to get LESS warm than their older counterparts. This device reminds me of owning a tegra 3 phone..

How long was the screen on for?
It's normal for any device to get hot when playing games, especially when running graphically intensive apps. It has nothing to do with whether the device is old or new.
About 50 minutes out of the 55

That sounds about right then. Screen time can usually last up to 5 hours before the battery dies.
Installing dynamic kat actually 100% fixed heat and really improved screen on batt life. I only use 6-12% an hour. Depending on cpu load
