So maybe I am blind, but I have looked through the loooong list of forums in my XDA App on my mobile many times, and cannot find these forums. I see the Samsung Galaxy Note international forums, but not for the AT&T.
Am I missing something? I do have the free version of the app, so if purchasing the pay version will make more available, I will gladly do that
Thanks for any help!
The forum listing is static on the app. You have to manually refresh the forums to get the new ones show up.
Gah! I can't believe I missed that. Thank you!

I've seen this question batted about in various parts of the U.S. Variant sub-forums, but haven't seen a specific movement to get these Galaxy S III forums further sub-divided. Although the hardware is pretty much identical, isn't there problems, issues, Q&A, that is germane to specific carriers? Although I do not have my GS3 in hand waiting for Verizon, this forum is already becoming an incomprehensible jumble of affairs. We are not talking about a phone that is limited release, this is a huge release. The "General" conversation is going to be different as will be Q&A. I mean we already have witnessed hard bricks from those flashing international ROMS. And I know the mandra of "read and read more" but wouldn't people be more comfortable if they had a Sprint version GS3 to go into a "Sprint" GS3 forum? To see issues specific to their carrier like "my data speed sucks how about yours" or LTE is lit up in New York or Verizon put how much bloatware on their phones?
IDK, I'll be here reading everyday but it just doesn't seem to make sense to jumble all the carrier threads together. I've never done it but can we at least get a public opinion poll posted for users to chime in what they would like to see? Each variant sub-forum will still be huge simply because this will probably be the best selling Android phone of the year.
Finally I remain humble and grateful for all the help and learning I've gained from here; not making any demands but just a suggestion.
This is a very good point. I asked the exact same question in the moderator introduction thread and apparently nothing is scheduled to change so far. I think they should sub-divide this by variant, ie i747, 999, etc, similar to what was done in the one x forums. This is currently way too crowded to follow properly or contribute in a meaningful way. I think xda are not used to such sales numbers of a device and were ill prepared with their sub-forum breakdown. I am hoping they rectify this and break this up further for all of our sakes.

It Is weird for most of people that had phones that are available in 1 carrier and not others, but trust me everything will be fine, I been on galaxy nexus forums, evo 3d gsm and cdma, etc, and by just having like this you might learn new things and should make development easier and porting, just make sure you clarify what phone are you talking about, remember that XDA is hosting all these forums for it and we're no paying anything too, the more forums you have the more expensive it could be

I have an idea that would help both mods and us xda user when it come to SGs3 forum. General and accesories can be left without carrier specific names. Then sprint, verizon, att&t, and t-mobile can have their own sub-forums with development, Q&A, and themes & apps.
Ex.
[Sprint]Gs3
- Dev
-Q&A
- Themes & Apps
And last the title of the Gs3 forum title should be changed to
"U.S Samsung Galaxy S3 variants ( Sprint, T-mobile, Verizon, & Att&t)
With this two sub forums can be deleted that are present now since they'll be apart of the carrier variant sub forum.

I totally agree. Lumping all the carriers into one forum makes things so crowded that the forums are almost unusable. It's really difficult to get back to a topic that you were browsing unless you actually made a post and can look it up that way. This is all with a limited release, just wait till you can get these in any store!

Lots of users didn't like the lumping of the forums; in particular the absolute fact that users will flash the wrong rom on their phones.
We've had users flash i9300 roms and they're not lumped in here. I agree that people should READ, but the reality is that lots do not in their haste and excitement.
I'm all for making things easier on the mods, because I could not imagine having to read EVERY post to make sure things stay on topic and civil. I just think there can be a happy medium between that and what the users would like.
I have recently pre ordered a S3 for Verizon and we have come to find out that Verizon themselves have locked the handsets bootloader. This is a huge shame and is downright sinister.
There are quite a few people working on cracking the bootloader but as of now we have not gotten very far. If ANY of the talented minds that make up the International S3 forums would be willing to help the cause, it would be greatly appreciated.
I will post links as soon as I can to threads as I am using the xda app on my phone. But for now if you would like to help, go to the Verizon galaxy s3 development forum and check out all of the bootloader threads.
There is also a petition being signed to make Verizon unlock the bootloader and free out device.
(will post link soon to petition, it's in the general sub forum for the time being tho)

Closed, try asking in the US SGS3 section rather than this one, these phones are the same in name alone.
is there a way i can download paid apps free on rooted Samsung Galaxy tablet
You know my man these devs put a lot of time and energy into these apps and you should just get the free version if you don't want to pay. Seriously

Instead of spending time here, head over to the forum specific for your phone model & carrier.
In general, most samsung phones (including your model) can go back to the stock state using odin.
Do you know how to do this?

Again, go to the forum for your phone and all the answers will be laid out for you.
Need ten messages to seek help with viper4android, which is stupid. Thanks for understanding.

You do not need 10 questions to read any existing threads, or (if needed) ask a question in a Q&A forum. Questions do not belong in Development forums which is why the 10 post rule is in place.
Upon reading the sticky for american and Canadian users I clicked the link for sprint and it say there are no posts. Am I doing something wrong or has the sprint s3 fourms been moved. Loving everything I'm seeing thus far and can't wait to dig in. Thank you
