Interesting concept.

So...Are there any gun aficionados here? Anyone have their concealed carry licence?

I have no idea where this thread might go, but I am always on the lookout for fellow second amendment right folks to pal around with.

Not sure if this out of bounds or not. It is a very PC world now.
I do Sig 229 here.

Hi i just got the verizon samsung galaxy s3 and i dont know how to turn on 4g lte is this a secret or what
It will connect to 4G automatically if you are in a coverage area. If you aren't getting it and others on VZW 4G are in the same place then you need to call VZW and make sure your device is provisioned correctly.

Anyone know a way to buff out minor scratches? These scratches or only noticeble at ridiculous angles but I want them gone lol.

Any safe procedures before I'm forced to buy a screen protector? I never use any accessories like cases because I always baby all my electronics and don't have a need for them.

I know someone had a thread awhile ago for a different phone that it worked.. find that thread first before you do anything :)

On a side note: This time put a screen protector on it... lol

Captivate to SGS3.

Not a huge change, but definitely worth it.

Only thing that bugs me is the screen. Gorilla Glass 2 is supposed to be more scratch resistant, but it clearly is not!
I came from the i9000, and its like night and day, apples and oranges

And yeah my screen got a small scratch in it within a week! not impressed. I don't even know how it happened!

Is it me or the rom development for this phone (Sprint) is slow? CWM recovery can't seem to get it right? I came from HTC phones and I think development on those phones are more active. Just my personal observations.

um yeah, you do realize that the phone just came out a week ago right? You can't expect the latest and greatest roms ever a week from release. Those HTC phones have been out for quite a while now so ofcourse the devs have gotten used to their innards. Our devs have to worry about the TW framework and all. But with CM9 & AOKP (on some)already here, things should move along pretty smoothly from here on out

I absolutely agree..This glass is clearly not scratch resistant like the Skyrocket is...

I took the plunge and bought a case after scratching my first GSIII (returned that one), and now waiting for an Extreme Guard screen protector..Not sure about the buffing thing though..I was wondering the same thing...

Carry an HK USP compact 9mm. Great gun, but eyeing a Sig 239.

On another note, I've just finish building an Ar-15 with a mid length gas system. Has a 14.5 barrel, Aimpoint, and MOE handguards. Had a quad rail, but that thing was too heavy.
