galaxy s3 image

almaran

I want to connect my smartphone to my tv so I can browse the internet and play games on the big hd tv versus the small galaxy s3. I know the samsung galaxy s3 is a big smartphone but I would like to play video game apps from the smartphone on the lg hd tv.
I didn't try it but I know it's possible. I connected it to my PS3 but it can only play videos, photos, and music from the s3. I want to be able to see what is on the smartphone on the tv. Is it with a cable or can it be done wirelessly? I don't know how but I heard it is possible.

Answer
You can do that.cool i have a samsung galaxy s3 too.i'm not sure how to connect the phone to a hd tv.
maybe need a plug to connect the phone to the tv,i just got my phone recently.so i haven't tried that yet..

Should I get the samsung galaxy s3 or a different phone?

Zig

I have Sprint and I am looking to buy a new phone in December. I want a good phone that has really good battery life. I know the galaxy note 2 has great battery life but that is not in my budget. So please tell me if the galaxy s3 has a great battery life. I have read a lot of reviews and there are a lot of mixed reviews. Some say that is last through the whole day easily and others say it only lasts 6 hours. So tell me how long it gets through the day and how much you use it in that day. And if I should buy something else.
Thanks.

Should I buy the samsung galaxy s2 or wait till the release of the galaxy s3?

lalp

I have found a suitable contract for the galaxy s2 for £20 a month, but I understand the galaxy s3 will likely be released in February. Is it worth waiting for this? I don't want to spend more than £20 a month, so will it just be the case that I won't be able to afford it when its released anyway. I'm not desperate for a phone but my budget is strict.

Answer
there's no words on the galaxy s3, so i would just get the galaxy s2.

Should I trade my iPhone for a galaxy sIII? It looks really amazing!

Galaxy S3 has way more cool, buy unnecessary feature. Coming from a long times Android user who just switched to the Iphone 5, IOS is way more user friendly, and since its so simple and intuitive, the phones runs faster, with hardware specs that are alot easier on the phones battery.

I have an iPhone 5 can I trade it for a Galaxy SIII?

Decwar

Hi, I currently have an iPhone 5 for Sprint and like it a lot, but I've always been more of an Android fan... I have had this phone for almost a month about 3 weeks, and was wondering if I can go to sprint and trade it in for a Galaxy SIII if that is possible?

Answer
Iphone Vs Andriod? Its like Mac Vs Pc... You're making the right choice.. It wouldn't hurt to go ask, If not you can ask if you can trade it in towards the purchase of the precious.. If not still, you can run by Gamestop and ask how much cash you can get for your Iphone5. Then if enough sell it to them and buy the precious..

How do I completely reset my galaxy s3?

Michael Kn

I just bought a galaxy s3 from craigslist, but it's running on stock android. I want it to run on touchwiz. I have tried to factory reset the device through the settings. I have also tried to factory reset the phone using the physical keys, but the stock android remains. HELP!

Answer
Heh, it's rare to see one that prefers touchwiz today. Well, that's great, I actually prefer touchwiz, too (some of the developers also agree).

It most likely has stock android because it is rooted (you probably already knew that), by the way I prefer not having touchwiz on the S3 because you don't gain as many benefits as having touchwiz on the Galaxy note 2 (gives you the ability to use the S-pen).

I suggest you look around the xda-developers forum, I can provide a link in the source, and since it has stock Android it is probably already rooted and has a recovery for flashing ROMs (modified OS for performance and other tweaks/mods, some relating to security upgrades and stuff). I'm not sure what carrier that Galaxy S3 has but since it's probably rooted, it is also probably unlocked too. I provide a general Galaxy S3 android development area in my source, however... well... yeah... you probably have a different carrier. IF NOT, then this thread will just work, you can contact me via e-mail or google chat via ichigoyeh@gmail.com or google+ and I can help you.

EDIT: By the way I'm currently looking at the ROMs available there and will update this post with one with touchwiz, you can provide more information in your question by editing but hey. Also it's best if you don't paste your phone number here so I could help you via that, too. By the way are you by chance looking for a mobile carrier? As I know one that you might be interested in that is prepaid and works under the T-mobile network, however requires a referral ($49 for unlimited talk, text, data, and also has benefits that allow you to save but you'll have to be interested for more details).

UPDATE: The classic Omega ROM http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1663656 should fit your bill. Performance enhancements and mods and tweaks that are only beneficial, with no bugs, all on top of Touchwiz. Please go to settings>about phone and check your baseband and model (for example for the model number it could be something like i9250XXDLLJJ or i9300t889), post it in your question or e-mail me (could give phone number so I could call you and help live, as this might take much longer).

How to set personal messaging ringtone for Samsung Galaxy s3?

Mariah Vin

Okay so I have a samsung galaxy s3 and i wanna set my music ringtone so when people text me , I can hear the song i want. HELP!

Answer
You either have a Galaxy S or an S2. Samsung only gave out a release date of early May for the long awaited release of theS3 earlier this week:

http://m.techradar.com/news/phone-and-communications/mobile-phones/samsung-galaxy-s3-release-date-news-and-rumours-1051525

Anyway, on an Android phone it's in Menu> Settings> Sound> Notifications (the menu items may have different but similar names such as "Notification Ringtone") then, probably at the bottom of the list of Samsung ones, there will be a link to your music library. That will set the default notification sound for all your texts and emails. For individual people in your phone book go into your contact list, choose an entry and edit it either by pressing Menu> Edit, or an onscreen edit button if there is one, then you can scroll down to the option to allocate them their own Ringtone.
The best way to learn this stuff is to go slow, look around and read everything carefully. There's usually lots of available options to be found by pressing that Menu button in whichever app or phone screen you are in. I dunno how iOS users with iphones manage without one actually.

Should I buy an HTC 8X for Verizon or keep my Galaxy SIII?

Ronnie

I currently have a Verizon Galaxy SIII. It's white, the 16GB model with a 32GB SD card. I am really wanting to switch from Android to the elegant Windows Phone 8 device. The 8X has amazing curb appeal, but would it really be worth switching? I would sell the GS3 on eBay for a ~$400+ profit guaranteed, so I would be paying around $150, if not less. I don't have an upgrade on my account. I want real answers, and nobody say, "BUY AN IPHONE, THEY'RE SO COOL." I don't want an iPhone. This is between two phones. I want a great user experience, camera, speed, battery life, and looks. Thanks!

Answer
Trust me, if you get the HTC Windows Phone 8X, you're actually downgrading phones. Why do I say this?

User experience on the Windows Phone 8X leaves much to be desired. The live tiles sound awesome, but you're actually not doing much on it that you can't do on Android (the OS that the Galaxy S III runs). The Galaxy S III allows you to change launchers (if you don't like the way the Touchwiz interface looks) and make it look different from the stock launcher.

Camera on both phones are pretty much on par with each other (HTC gives too much hype on their image sense technology, which isn't really that great to begin with).

Speed is pretty much on par with each other (since they both have the same processors). The 8X is just a tad hair smoother because it doesn't have as many graphical components that the S III has.

The Galaxy S III has better battery life than the 8X though (and if you want more on the S III, you can just buy an extended battery and make it even better). The 8X has a nonremovable battery, so you're stuck with that battery until your contract ends.

The only thing that the 8X probably has that's better than the S III is build quality. Feels more secure in the hand and looks like it can take a better drop than the S III.

I know you didn't ask this, but I'm going to go over it anyways. App support is key to success for a mobile OS. Android has hundreds of thousands of apps available to download. Many of which are FREE to download. Windows Phone however, doesn't have even close to the amount Android has (about 100000 vs Android's 700000+ apps).

Is that enough of an explanation for you? Most people I know either have iPhones or Galaxy S IIIs anyways. I don't see anyone having the Windows Phone 8X so that should also show how popular the Galaxy S III is compared to the 8X. Just keep your Galaxy S III and move on. Hope this helped.

Is it possible to password protect your twitter app on galaxy s3?

Elise

I have the Galaxy SIII and I have installed the twitter app. I just want to know if it is possible to password protect the app so when you try to open it a password is required.

Thanks!
