I have an iPhone 5 can I trade it for a Galaxy SIII?

Q. Hi, I currently have an iPhone 5 for Sprint and like it a lot, but I've always been more of an Android fan... I have had this phone for almost a month about 3 weeks, and was wondering if I can go to sprint and trade it in for a Galaxy SIII if that is possible?

A. Iphone Vs Andriod? Its like Mac Vs Pc... You're making the right choice.. It wouldn't hurt to go ask, If not you can ask if you can trade it in towards the purchase of the precious.. If not still, you can run by Gamestop and ask how much cash you can get for your Iphone5. Then if enough sell it to them and buy the precious..

Should i get the 4th or 5th generation ipod, iphone, pr SAmsunh Galaxy SIII?

Q. Hey you guys I have 1st generation ipod touch and im planning on getting an upgrade since having such an old ipod really restricts me from being able to play the games i want. Do you guys think that i should get the 4th or 5th generation ipods or just forget about thosw and just get an iphone or Samsung Galaxy SIII phone instead. So which ine out of the fourshould i pick? 5th generation, 4th generation, iphone, or Samsung Galaxy SIII

A. More than is often the case, the battle between the iPhone 5 and Samsung Galaxy S3 is the very definition of the case between iOS and Android, between Apple and Google. The Samsung Galaxy S3 is more flexible, with expandable memory and a more malleable OS. Only the metal body of Apple's phone feels a bit more better. And with the larger 4in screen, it won't feel quite so tiny next to the Samsung Galaxy S3, either.
Verdict:
Galaxys S3 is the better choice.

Have a nice day

How to set personal messaging ringtone for Samsung Galaxy s3?

Q. Okay so I have a samsung galaxy s3 and i wanna set my music ringtone so when people text me , I can hear the song i want. HELP!

A. You either have a Galaxy S or an S2. Samsung only gave out a release date of early May for the long awaited release of theS3 earlier this week:

http://m.techradar.com/news/phone-and-communications/mobile-phones/samsung-galaxy-s3-release-date-news-and-rumours-1051525

Anyway, on an Android phone it's in Menu> Settings> Sound> Notifications (the menu items may have different but similar names such as "Notification Ringtone") then, probably at the bottom of the list of Samsung ones, there will be a link to your music library. That will set the default notification sound for all your texts and emails. For individual people in your phone book go into your contact list, choose an entry and edit it either by pressing Menu> Edit, or an onscreen edit button if there is one, then you can scroll down to the option to allocate them their own Ringtone.
The best way to learn this stuff is to go slow, look around and read everything carefully. There's usually lots of available options to be found by pressing that Menu button in whichever app or phone screen you are in. I dunno how iOS users with iphones manage without one actually.

How do I completely reset my galaxy s3?

Q. I just bought a galaxy s3 from craigslist, but it's running on stock android. I want it to run on touchwiz. I have tried to factory reset the device through the settings. I have also tried to factory reset the phone using the physical keys, but the stock android remains. HELP!

A. Heh, it's rare to see one that prefers touchwiz today. Well, that's great, I actually prefer touchwiz, too (some of the developers also agree).

It most likely has stock android because it is rooted (you probably already knew that), by the way I prefer not having touchwiz on the S3 because you don't gain as many benefits as having touchwiz on the Galaxy note 2 (gives you the ability to use the S-pen).

I suggest you look around the xda-developers forum, I can provide a link in the source, and since it has stock Android it is probably already rooted and has a recovery for flashing ROMs (modified OS for performance and other tweaks/mods, some relating to security upgrades and stuff). I'm not sure what carrier that Galaxy S3 has but since it's probably rooted, it is also probably unlocked too. I provide a general Galaxy S3 android development area in my source, however... well... yeah... you probably have a different carrier. IF NOT, then this thread will just work, you can contact me via e-mail or google chat via ichigoyeh@gmail.com or google+ and I can help you.

EDIT: By the way I'm currently looking at the ROMs available there and will update this post with one with touchwiz, you can provide more information in your question by editing but hey. Also it's best if you don't paste your phone number here so I could help you via that, too. By the way are you by chance looking for a mobile carrier? As I know one that you might be interested in that is prepaid and works under the T-mobile network, however requires a referral ($49 for unlimited talk, text, data, and also has benefits that allow you to save but you'll have to be interested for more details).

UPDATE: The classic Omega ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663656 should fit your bill. Performance enhancements and mods and tweaks that are only beneficial, with no bugs, all on top of Touchwiz. Please go to settings>about phone and check your baseband and model (for example for the model number it could be something like i9250XXDLLJJ or i9300t889), post it in your question or e-mail me (could give phone number so I could call you and help live, as this might take much longer).
