1) check for matching IMEI (dial *#06#) with phone and box.

2) check all contents are available in box

3) check for dead pixels. use samsung function test by typing this code *#0*# into the dialer. go through all the test and make sure everything is working

4) check for any hardware defects by pressing the phone at several spots for squeaking or weird noises.

5) check for yellow tint, open up a white picture and check the screen for yellow-ish

Tips/Tricks

Application that is safe to remove
QUOTE

QUOTE


Tips on battery saving
QUOTE
Try to use manual screen brightness instead of automatic, setting it to 50% or below. You can disable wifi and data connection if you're not using it that frequent, turn it on only when you need to use it.Disable all auto syncing will help as well.You can set the sleep timer below the 1min default setting, as this will off the screen earlier and safe some power.Monitor your task manager once in a while to kill off running apps and processes. Using a black background wallpaper will help save power as well because of S.AMOLED screen.


How to get Flipboard without downloading the apk from XDA - credits to farscope

QUOTE
go to apps >> more services, then it will lead u to samsung apps, then u will be able to get flipboard there. other apps like S Baro for pressure, My Story (as in GNote) and others are in there.


How to switch off wifi power saving mode - credits to nidunalza
QUOTE
Type *#0011# to open a service menu> options key > wifi > set wifi power saving to OFF.
(NOTE : disabling this may consume more battery. leave it ON unless you're having wifi connection issues)


SGS3 Recorded Audio Format is 3GA, How to Convert to MP3?
QUOTE
This one need to use Windows PC/Laptop. We have two good multimedia file converter: SUPER and Format Factory.

SUPER: advance and so many options to choose.
Format Factory: simple and easy interface.

Download it from following URL:
http://www.erightsoft.com/S6Kg1.html (description and download page) ~> Direct download: http://www.erightsoft.biz/GetFile.php?SUPERsetup.exe
http://formatoz.com/index.html


Transfer file for Apple Notebook
QUOTE
Those who want copy paste file from/to iMac /MacBook Pro/Air, download Android File Transfer from here:

http://www.android.com/filetransfer/

When you done the installation, plug your SGS3 to USB.

Then for USB option on your SGS3, choose Camera PTP:


I try copying huge number of file just now, the Android File Transfer application crashed. Need to copy slowly, one folder to one folder.

seems like MW have less problem...

then go to white if you really want safety. I had 2 s3,1 white and 1 blue. I still not regret of choose blue version and yet face any problem. black ink is occur in blue and white version. it is the amoled problem and this is no a big deal as 95% having this problem.

I just held my friend's HTC One X earlier today, even though HTC One X's design is nicer and it feels more premium in the hand, the S3 is MUCH MUCH MORE NICER to hold.

It's like, I can't hold on to the HTC One X for more than a minute without changing my hand position, whereas on my S3 I feel that it's much more ergonomic and comfortable to the hand hmm.gif

Late report - Welcome v12. biggrin.gif

I am back to Ninphetamin3 v1.1.1 now, I find it is much much smoother especially in 3D gaming.
Go try out Temple Run - Brave, you will notice the different.

Beside this, if you out of sudden notice app rotating is jerking and not smooth and you had install that Jelly Bean animation, removed it, that Jelly Bean animation is not smooth on rotating.

in post 1, in the Accesories section, the first link under Cable and Connector is not valid for S3. I tested with the seller at his home and it doesn't work with our S3.

it was previously mentioned by TS that earlier MHL connector doesn't work with S3 and I can confirmed that now. Looking for original S3 MHL connector for my project.

in post 1, in the Accesories section, the first link under Cable and Connector is not valid for S3. I tested with the seller at his home and it doesn't work with our S3.

it was previously mentioned by TS that earlier MHL connector doesn't work with S3 and I can confirmed that now. Looking for original S3 MHL connector for my project.

What's the price like bro?

I'm having the old type HDTV Adapter which works with SGSII previously.

And Samsung also released a solution, the HDTV Adapter TIP (5 to 11 Pin Converter) to enable the old adapter to work with SGSIII, do you think its better for me to get the adapter or to get a new SGSIII compatible MHL adapter?

Yes..you can root your phone without using custom rom. Your binary counter will increase but you can reset it by using TriangleAway. Refer to 1st page on How To Root your SGS3. Good luck.. :-)

Hi all, does anybody else have problems with SamsungApps today? There is only the "waiting" popup appearing? And it disappears after a while. No sign in prompt at all

Update: Finally working now. Have to keep retrying until it appears. Must be some problems

Goto "Settings" -> "Display" -> "Smart stay"

You will see an eye icon appearing at the top right notification bar once in a while depending on your screen timeout

some games do consume more battery than the others.

S3 is good enough with a 2100mAh battery. the battery life very much depending on your usage pattern and the apps that u install.

yes, definitely.. my gf using s2, and she envy a lot of my battery life.

we went out with my battery 50%, hers 70%.. we use almost the same pattern i.e. whatsapp, taking photos.

we came back with my battery 45% and hers 30%.

and yet everyday i still see ppl complaining about how bad is the battery life of S3. just be thankful it is not as crappy as One X and it is replaceable. Those who claimed draining battery better check your apps and signal strength.

without mobile data and wifi on most of the time, i can use full day with almost 4~5 hours on screen time which includes 2 hours gaming
with data on and wifi on when at home, i can use until night with 3hours+ to 4 hours on screen time

Yup, sometimes I also no idea why people complain on such little drop on battery, this S3 screen so big and is quadcore, and it already can did much much better than 4.2 inch dual core S2.

The battery on S3 is really impressive, at least non in market can do that for such big screen and quadcore.

Also don't forget it can charge full extremely fast!

I got colleague husband use One X, and he complain can last long only 6 hours!

I don't own any tab yet, always want to get one, but every time seen the UI smoothness, I just can't accept it, too lagging.

This Nexus 7 is the only I find smooth and consider the only workable tab for me. smile.gif Maybe I wait for Nexus 10, or wait others JB 4.1 tab. smile.gif

S3 is much better than the ipong...
ipong too much restrictions.
I want to send photos, musics or videos via bluetooth pun tak boleh.
Icons all cramped too close together due to the smaller screen size.
Settings need to go to the settings icon all the time, no shortcut. troublesome.
each time click on a youtube/ certain link, it auto pops up another app.
then want to close running apps... u slowly satu2 press the X button.

If you have patience then i suggest you wait for Note2. Otherwise buy S3 now then when Note2 release and if you still prefer bigger phones., sell your S3 and buy Note2. Need additional funds if you use this trading way :-))

One popular issue regarding WIFI on S3. The most common "Fix" right now is something that was learned from XDA developers:

1. Go to your phone dialer
2. Dial *#0011#
3. When you see the "ServiceMode" screen, press the left menu button
4. Select "WiFi"
5. See that "Wifi Power Save Mode" button that is "ON" - well turn it "OFF"
6. Exit this menu, turn off your Wifi and turn it back on. If you already entered all your wifi credentials, forget your network info (remove it) and re-enter it again."

hey guyz,

not sure if someone asked this before. When I dial into a conference number, I have to dial the passcode as well. This is where I bring up the keypad. The problem is, I have no sound from the keypad.

When dialing a new fresh number using the kaypad, you can here the default sound no problem. Only once you are in a conference bridge and you want to enter the passcode. No sound from keypad. Anyone know if there is a way to enable the sound? The keypad work no problem, just that with some sound will be nice to hear.

if u just added yr video, let the phone process and convert the thumbnail. it will take some time cz yr phone will convert the video into smaller reso and lower frame rate videos.

the cell standby thingy wont affect anything.. it is just a bug showing wrong value.. actual battery consumption still the same. i really suggest u to check on any rogue app installed that is draining battery. it wont show in yr battery settings thou.

Check your Gmail, Sync and other settings like email, weather app etc. If you leave it to check every 1 hour or so then it sucks up battery like mad. For me, all mail sync are manual and I only allow Sync to sync my Google contacts list. As for Playstore, I set to sync on WiFi only. icon_rolleyes.gif

S3 is much better than the ipong...
ipong too much restrictions.
I want to send photos, musics or videos via bluetooth pun tak boleh.
Icons all cramped too close together due to the smaller screen size.
Settings need to go to the settings icon all the time, no shortcut. troublesome.
each time click on a youtube/ certain link, it auto pops up another app.
then want to close running apps... u slowly satu2 press the X button.

so true! that is so irritating. s3 do not have these kind of problem, right?

QUOTE(alkt @ Jul 4 2012, 02:35 PM)
iPhone, charged twice a day.
S3, charged once almost every 1 1/2 days.

same style of usage, some fb, whatsapp msgs.

Guys, this might be a stupid question.

But is GO Ex Launcher good? Will I still be able to use features like the S Voice if I use the GO Launcher?

Thanks.
*

It just a launcher, it won't affecting your apps, except some widget special design for touchwiz not working, like that accuweather. Go Launcher not bad - lot customization, if you want pure ICS feel, then Nova Launcher Prime is great.

Yup, it preview for me in Video Player only.

haha thats funny though.. but to be honest, the only thing is my battery life. normal use but can only last half day.. plagued by the cell standby thingy.. hope samsung can fix it though.. other than that, its still awesome..

And surprise it is under Oxford.

Nothing to fixed in battery, as nothing wrong on it. Check your widget or whatever background running that hunt for battery life. Those notification and auto updates hunting power.

I don't have any mobile data so i off EVERYTHING that requires internet.
I'm very very sure that my settings are optimum for maximum battery life.
I hardly turn on my wifi, and i turn off wifi when i am not using it.

I suspect that the app that may be sucking up my battery = Beautiful Widgets.
I have the clock+weather widget set up on my homescreen.
I set the update interval to 1HOUR. I didn't think it was the cause since i dont have mobile data.

Now i have tweaked the update interval to manually, gonna try and see if it makes a difference.
Probably gonna have to wait till night time when i go to bed to try it.

Will report back with the results tomorrow smile.gif

iPhone is the only phone never in my list.

  • No freedom using iPhone
  • Boring interface
  • Troublesome, basic function like bluetooth data also can't.
  • Anything also need that stupid iTunes. Not so portable as you need PC for doing anything.
  • No much control on how you want the apps to function.
  • Small screen, only 3.5 inch, too tiny for browsing experience.
  • Too dumb.

I think it still checking for nothing even you not on the mobile data. (not sure on that).

I never put check every hour for weather, no point on that, that weather display is not that important, it just for fancy eye candy.

Just look out window, you can know current weather. smile.gif

I always put either every 3 - 6 hours, and I disable it if that weather widget I not in use.

That's exactly what it is doing. All apps has a timeout duration and retry time. So with your data line switched off, it is actually doing more checking that with the data line on as it will keep on retrying a few times. Imagine it doing this every hour, definitely your battery will run flat in no time.

In-fact from some report, S III and iPhone4S seems use similar Sony sensor, and review out, both also with similar outstanding quality.

Very strange. After I turn off the Exchange Sync interval to manual, I am still getting emails pushed to my SIII. I wonder if the setting doesn't take effect immediately or it required a reboot of the phone to make it work. I'll monitor it again.

I went into security to enter PIN number to enable the service (and disabled the SIM Card PIN), so that it can connect to network. However it is annoying now that pressing power button either turn screen dark or power off. No more further function. This is second time in a week. Last time was recovered by factory reset. Anyone has any idea what is wrong?

That's exactly what it is doing. All apps has a timeout duration and retry time. So with your data line switched off, it is actually doing more checking that with the data line on as it will keep on retrying a few times. Imagine it doing this every hour, definitely your battery will run flat in no time.

but not really too.. i got my data on all the time.. sync was off.. but battery still makan on cell standby..

I won't able to achieve that because my cubicle won't be having strong GSM signal. The most is 1 bar.

Depending on whether i have an outlet nearby, sometimes when during night time before i go to sleep, i will charge the phone even if there's only 50% battery left.

Most of the time i charge it when it's left around 30%, rarely i charge it when it's below 8% smile.gif
(read from somewhere that it's not good to full-drain the battery)

Anyone using swiftkey and smart cover app?
Good or bad idea to purchase these apps? Swiftkey is quite pricey at around $4++.

I'm having both, SwiftKey is awesome! One thing is that it can't type Chinese. Smart Cover is also awesome, just that if your finger accidently block the sensor, the screen turn off instantly. But other than that, perfect biggrin.gif,

Hrmm, good thing I don't usually type in Chinese biggrin.gif Care to mention what the major advantage it has against the stock keyboard?

Smartcover will only work if you have a flip case right? So basically I flip the case close, the screen will go to sleep. Flip it open, it will wake up and I can unlock it right? What happens if I happen to be using it and get a call, I'll flip the cover close to answer the call, will the screen sleep and wake up once I end the call and open the cover? tongue.gif

One popular issue regarding WIFI on S3. The most common "Fix" right now is something that was learned from XDA developers:

1. Go to your phone dialer
2. Dial *#0011#
3. When you see the "ServiceMode" screen, press the left menu button
4. Select "WiFi"
5. See that "Wifi Power Save Mode" button that is "ON" - well turn it "OFF"
6. Exit this menu, turn off your Wifi and turn it back on. If you already entered all your wifi credentials, forget your network info (remove it) and re-enter it again."
*
Sorry to ask again, but what will turning OFF the Wifi Power Save Mode do?
If I have no issues with wifi connectivity should I change it? blink.gif

If I have no issues with wifi connectivity should I change it? blink.gif

Turning it off will not put WiFi connectivity into sleeping mode if your phone enters power safe mode.

Hrmm, good thing I don't usually type in Chinese biggrin.gif Care to mention what the major advantage it has against the stock keyboard?

Smartcover will only work if you have a flip case right? So basically I flip the case close, the screen will go to sleep. Flip it open, it will wake up and I can unlock it right? What happens if I happen to be using it and get a call, I'll flip the cover close to answer the call, will the screen sleep and wake up once I end the call and open the cover? tongue.gif
Wow! Soo cheap. Current price on playstore is abotu 4++ USD

It won't auto answer your call, but it will turn your screen off.

For the advantages, the theme is really cool tongue.gif. It seems to learn how you type which makes typing easier and auto correcting much accurate for fast typing,,

Extra Battery Kit is you can charge Battery using Battery Charger Stand.Desktop Dock is you put your Galaxy SIII and you can charge/sync and act as desktop media center

reasons to get One X, better build, better design, better Screen

reasons to get S3, better features, ability to expand storage, interchangeable batteries,

other features are more or less the same

U win some and lose some lar. I am using without JD and gets about 1.5-2 days on the S3 depending on usage. U just need to disable all those non essential widgets and make sure you sync settings are set to manual except for those crucial ones. As for email, I set it to manual, don't really need push mail features. smile.gif

After using for 3 weeks only i realised that sometimes during calls the other party couldnt hear me after about 5 secs on the call and from sometimes beginning of the call itself. Anyone suffered the same issue ?

this stat probably must be when i sleep the batt hardly drain. Usually I will sleep with wifi on & when wake up only drops 1-2%. my average ranges from 17h - 32h

I've used romtoolbox pro to disable app start ups and reduce sync intervals of as many apps as i could esp emails & dropsync app.

Are you using any case on your S3?
Some back cases will affect the mobile QOS...
especially those which covers most of the bottom section.
The GPS and WIFI antenna is located above the phone,
while the mobile antenna is at the bottom (near the charging point and the mic)

hmm
somethin to ponder
if i use this avatar
m i automatically known as supercurio

really
his and his fans hav been goin rabid these few days
gm is doin somethin for free n tryin to fix it
supercurio is after him callin him names
i know he wants to earn from his app
n he did made his old sources open source

so in open source i dun think there is any problem if someone uses it
as for his app
i already purchased it

for me
if somethin works n is nice
i buy it

for some who dun even buy apps
bt rely on warez
there is no profit for him too

at first he was sayin 1 week
then 2 week
then a pre release version
until now
a month

still sayin workin on it

i dun know
bt somehow
this is not how i see both of em

its not like usin his sources for free n then chargin other ppl
unlike phoenix kernel of last time

i really dun know how long this is goin to last
he should quickly complete his voodoo sound n then get tis over wit

franco usin his sources bt no problem i heard
only gm since gm giv him credits for the sources

JB? So fast meh? Maybe developer punya kot... ;-)

Since upgrading from sgs to sgs3, i become so addictive in dloadg hd games & resulting small space left in my 16gb hdisk. So my q is:

1. How many gig of sd card should be consider enuff for an avid games/movies/photo user like me? Was thinking like 32gb. & what the std price like (so that i dont kena tipu whne buying).

2. What brand is ok.

3. Any issue playing/using games/apps that install in sd card?

4. Is the dropbox/icloud is really safe to install our data there? Im quiet sceptical on the idea of storing my precious data ontothe net.

Tq in advance boys n girls for the reply.

Cheers

hey guys... is it good if i upgrade android from ICS to JB...?? any pro and cons...?? thx

They is no JB yet, the current version can use if you want your phone as toy, as basic calling function also not working.

JB just announcing, too earlier for a working port, as no SDK is even out yet.

Just wait official JB, it is surely came for S III.

JB? So fast meh? Maybe developer punya kot... ;-)

Since upgrading from sgs to sgs3, i become so addictive in dloadg hd games & resulting small space left in my 16gb hdisk. So my q is:

1. How many gig of sd card should be consider enuff for an avid games/movies/photo user like  me? Was thinking like 32gb. & what the std price like (so that i dont kena tipu whne buying).
-64gb class 10 at least
-rm200


2. What brand is ok.
-sandisk

3. Any issue playing/using games/apps that install in sd card?
-no issues

4. Is the dropbox/icloud is really safe to install our data there? Im quiet sceptical on the idea of storing my precious data ontothe net.
-i used it to transfer things to n from pc n for my roms n kernels


Tq in advance boys n girls for the reply.

I am not sure it will work for imap. You can download trial version to try. The reason why I use Moxier rather than other app or build-in mail app is because I can set my password exclusive for it. If I use build-in mail app or touchdown, I will be forced to set the passcode at the lock screen. I feel troublesome to enter passcode each time enter my phone. tongue.gif

I no regret on nimpo, it is too obvious, especially in game like Temple Run - Brave. Siyah is not smooth.

Also overall UI - nimpo really smooth. smile.gif

Now I use default no overclocking, as it is smooth enough.

Reporting back with my battery drain results.

user posted image

I had a battery drain problem that i thought i couldn't find a solution to the problem.

Found the solution after a fellow forumer mentioned about it.
Turns out, the battery sucker was Beautiful Widgets. I had a weather+clock widget open that had the update interval set to 1HOUR, i changed it to 16HOUR instead, and it really fixed the problem smile.gif

Usually when i idle my phone untouched for 12 hours (sleep + school), the battery will only have 85% remaining.
But after fixing the problem, the results are significantly improved biggrin.gif

This is a VERY HUGE improvement for me biggrin.gif

Is it ok if I charge my phone like 70-80 percent before it is fully charged, then pull it off...
and after like 10 mins later, charge it back again?
will it damage the battery? but i think it will be counted as another cycle?
