I'm thinking about removing TouchWiz from my GS3 and switching to pure ICS. Has anyone done this and retained full functionality? I've read there are some problems with the camera and gallery functioning. I may be the only person who's said this online, but I kind of miss Sense now that I'm on Touchwiz.

Thoughts on rooting and hardware warranty?
#5
I didn't root and ROM my last phone until it was well past the warranty period, but I was pretty happy with the stock ROM. Just read a bunch of online guides and threads on it...if it seems like you can do it without much risk of bricking your phone, go for it. It can be undone if you have to take it in for warranty service.
Wouldn't bother with the Nexus. Radios suck, tons of unhappy customers.

Warranty is a big deal for me. I've had about 5 warrantied phones in 3-years and every time I trade them in the workers tell me the phones look new. My last phone quit because parts of the screen stopped working. This is why I switched from HTC to Samsung.

I have one now after having Androids. I hate this thing. Never had a phone this annoying. Every time I complain about it to other iphone users the excuse is "Oh yoou just need the 4S model not the 4 you have." Played with the 4S, nothing a good android phone can't do, minus Siri and she's annoying to. I loved my Nexus S, wife is using it now. Waiting for the next wave of greatness in the android market to replace this iphone with something that works and does what I tell it.
