What to do when you first get your phone


QUOTE
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.
