Do you turn 3G and wifi off at night? Some apps like to keep a connection alive, and even if you have closed it, it will open again in the background.
3G is the biggest battery drain on a phone, with it on you can virtually watch the level drop.

The problem doesn't lie with your phone, it has done what it is supposed to do - it has connected you to a server/modem via the inbuilt wifi. The answer lies with the uni's software. Are you sure there isn't an option to login on the webpage when you load it?
See your uni administator.

No, I use 'extended' batteries on both of my phones. a S3 and a S3 Mini, without any problems. Just make sure that you buy a reputable make, cheap Chinese ones are definitely NOT recommended.

Hi Guys, kindly help me with WI-FI connection. I'm a university student who want to connect to campus WI-FI. The phone does connect, but the problem is that it does not provide me with "pop up screen" so i can authenticate my credential, ie. student number and password. I can open a university webpage, but as soon as i put other pages it gives an error message because i did not put my credential. Kindly help

eve, 10 Mar 2013May I know where to download free GPS software for S3 mini?@ eve
You don't need to download GPS software, it is already installed on your phone. Just pull down your Notification bar and you will see the icon to turn it on. Then just use it with the Maps application which is also included on your phone.

I don't know what else to suggest. I'm not a fan of this 'Social Media' craze because I protect my privacy and would NEVER have a Facebook or Twitter account.
I know for a fact that you can never leave them completely; I have friends that have cancelled their accounts and months later decide to rejoin. As soon as they register their email address their account instantly reappears and it is as if they had never left. No thanks!
Perhaps someone else with a F/B account might be able to help.

It makes you think that it goes deeper than just an error on the part of Samsung because a lot of people have been complaining about it being missing, and if it was as you say then Samsung would have released an update by now.

They just disabled it in framework-res.apk by accident.
framework-res.apk is apk that is responsible for one part of graphic interface. Among them is lockscreen.
You can enable ripple effect by modifying framework-res.apk and recompiling it again (needs root). Or check XDA Developers forum. There is a fix

I got one and im using it for about 2 weeks now. Its goood and stylish.. but the thing is there is no led notification unlike other new phones and the 8gb said in the specs are not 8gb in actual. Its actually 8gbs it means that 8gbs is smaller its like 4gb.

From what you are saying I suspect that you are receiving 'Push messages' from Facebook. If you have Facebook installed on your PC or laptop then you can go into the settings and see if your phone is linked to your Facebook account. If it is you will get a push message when your account receives a new post etc.
