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

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)

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.

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.

hello..
i am a new user of a s3, and i have met up some difficulty.
anyone wanna spoon feed me?

1: Why when viewing gallery, it shows many unwanted photos pulled from my gmail account. I cant seem to remove the folders(albums). and when viewing photos, its not in full screen. it has two black border top and bottom. Wat a waste of the screen.

setting > account > google account > untick picasa, google web album

setting >application >gallery >clear data

2: i cant seem to find my sd card. Gallery can find the photos in the card, but i cant access my card. I am using ES file explorer. Where to find it?

for es need you need to go to setting and enable back to root, then go to mnt > extSDcard, other browser dont have to do this

3: there is no "real" multitasking in android unlike iOs? for eg i play a game, pause, go to main home, then go toilet. back from toilet, game dont resume, but restart from main menu. normal?

not normal, i can go out from a heavy game like nova, then can resume no problem.

4: Swiping images to images, it has to go one by one instead of a list of photos where i can slide them instantly?(not sure how to put it...i think you all get wat i mean de hoh..)

dont understand, when open gallery arent it show all the images then u select which one to view.

5: Pressing home button dont bring me back to my home page. But to the last page i left off. is it normal?i prefer it to go back to home page, how to set?

dont remember cause dont use twlauncher

6: installed apps, how to move to sd card?
and lots more.....but cant think of them at the moment...
please help..sad.gif

ics cant, and no reason want to move to sd
