I know for a post-pay customer...Wind offers a trade in service as the s3 has to be shipped to samsung to be inspected.

If there's a samsung service center in your city you can just go there... I know there's a service center in Montreal, and you don't need have your bill to get warranty services...
I had issued with my old S3, it was showing a big black dot on screen (the Mura effect). I contacted Samsung and they said as long as the phone is in the warranty, they will repair it and pay for shipping, etc. But I'm sure if you go to Wind, they will provide you a supplementary temporary phone until the phone comes back from repair.
Alright, thanks for the answers. I too am experiencing the " Mura effect". I don't believe there is a Samsung repair center near the Niagara region or even Toronto. Do you guys think I can have it replaced if the device was previously rooted? I am thinking of flashing stock with ODIN to get back to out of the box state.
Yes, Put it back to stock also reset the flash counter then flash it back to stock via Odin
I'd do what htc fan said above.
I asked my friend and there is a 10 dollar non refundable fee and an 80 deposit you need to put down in case there are repair fees.
I forgot to mention yesterday that the loaner phone you'll be getting might not necessarily be an S3 but maybe an S.
It's a by-product of the AMOLED technology used to make the screens. Unless it's really bad, I doubt they'll really send you back a "fixed" screen.
That is an odd one but I've never heard of that before and mine doesn't get it so I haven't noticed lol

Ya I saw that the other day they got the update so I would imagine we will get ours about a week or 2 after which is normally the case

Installed the ROM from Wildchild. Evertything seems to be working fine. Except mobile data. I can connect to Wind's network fine, calls, messages work. But no Data. Did I muck up something? Any idea if tthere's a way to fix it?
The new Samsung Keyboard is quite nice. Unlike in ICS, I find myself using the 4.1 Samsung keyboard more than the third-party one.

4A while ago I was a part of the wind mobile optimus 2x (P999) users UNITE threads so to live on with the legacy I figured I would make a thread for the Wind Mobile Galaxy S3 users:
have fun ask questions, shoot the breeze, and just chill with your windy friends3Appreciate the help
. So now that radios are out of the question, what about the ROM?
Just fyi, I'm trying to help someone do I think the same thing but for Mobilicity here:
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2027661
Hasn't been solved yet but thought it may help you as well.
I'm going to go ahead and try to put out recovery flashable Roms based from the T999V stock firmware. So if nothing else there will be that fairly soon. They'll be deodexed to in case anyone wants to theme or mod or do whstever you want to them.
Hope some of you find them useful once done!

well they said that it could cause issues but my old optimus 2x aka g2x worked fine with tmobile roms and btw GS3 is T999 where as the Canadian version is T999V and should have no issues from what i can see if im not mistaken the optimus 2x up here was P990DW where as the tmo version was T990 but the roms and everything were the same for both.
where as for the calendar its prob a loss and yes you install gapps separately but just follow the instruction and it will lead you through everything safely but here is another link just in case
http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=17756162I have put together a ROM based on the new Canadian JB release. I am not a real developer just sharing what I have put together for those that are interested. Tried to get most of the features from Frosty that I miss when we updated.
