Has anyone bothered rooting their Galaxy S3 yet? I can't move any programs to the sd card and rooting it is the only way possible as far as I know. Games are getting that friggin big now and it only takes a few and the phone is nearly full.

Never did it as I with my luck it would brick my phone. I have trouble with my phone running out of storage constantly

i think i was reading on xda, when you root it, you can move files to the sd card or something like that.

you can use a 64meg sd card with it, you just need to format it (fat32 i think)

I have had a 64gig memory card in it since I bought the phone and the only reason I wanted to root my phone was purely the reason you said. I have the correct app on my phone to move to sd but it won't work till my phone is rooted

I rooted my old s1 but for example the gameloft games didnt like having the game date on the memory card it just wanted to download it again

I assume the S3 will do the same its the actual game data thats a issue as the main app is tiny

the new need for speed on my s3 is about 800mb

my s3 is stock for now more then happy with it

Max Payne and Batman both add about 1.7gig of data each to my sd card

you will also have an issue as the ext sd card wont go any faster then 7mb write ive a 32gb gen sandisk class 10 card and i was hoping it would write at least 10mb the internal card flys shame really
