Hello Gang,

I have a Samsung Galaxy SIII Live Demo Unit. It is basically a Galaxy SIII minus the SIM Card slot and MicroSD slot. I have noticed that the OS has minor limitations...for instance, I want to use the device under USB MTP so I can transfer the music and pics I added via bluetooth and I cant.

Has anyone seen this? Is there anything I can do, take screenshots or such so i can atleast run the true ICS TouchWiz. For instance, S Voice is not included, and I Want it. S Beam, SmartStay, NFC, Wifi Direct, DLNA, All Share, all that is in there.

Cheers,

Paul

What's so cool about it? Its just a crippled normal GS3.

I imagine the only thing cool about it was the price

I have Live Unit too and I have IMEI for that phone which has been given to me on paper.

Both Mitsuoka123 and myself are Samsung Mobilers and we got Live Demo Units for testing purposes.

I flashed stock ROM (and then SlimICS ) and no problems at all. Now I need to insert IMEI in my phone but I don't know how.

Can anyone help? Thank you in advance!

Inserting live IMEI is illegal and totally against XDA rules .

IMEI Restauration

Hello,
When you get a "Live demo unit", you have a generic IMEI 004999010640000.
You have to restore the IMEI to use the GSM.
You can find tutorials with a google search "IMEI restauration".
For Samsung Galaxy, you can have a look here :

I have just one issue, it seems that the method does not work on Samsung Galaxy S3... I tried all the combinations...

So is it possible to find an antenna part and install it so that the phone works normally ?
