Not sure if this is what you wanted but my Sennehsier MM 500-X (everything else in its family line should work too) works perfectly. SGS3 has aptx support and sound is great. Also, all the buttons (play/pause, skip next/before, volume up and down) work with everything I've tried (poweramp, diceplayer, bad all the stock media players)

1. Bluetrek Carbon with Bluetooth 3.0 Headset - Once paired works, then upon disconnect, does not want to reconnect again. Sometimes will connect, most of the times wont. Need to unpair and repair for each use

2. Pioneer AVIC-X910BT Car Radio (unknown BT version) - Same as above.

Alpine ICS-X8 App Link Station which uses MirrorLink technology with the Galaxy S3 is one to add.

Video here is quite old but is only one I can find which shows a Samsung phone rather than a Nokia. They mention the GS3 mirrorlink support is there when the phone is released.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WQdEnXssqr0

Demo with Nokia :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HnGPKPmTrZw

MirrorLink allows you to mirror your phones screen on the 7" Alpine dashboard unit in your car and control it via the touch screen and letting you run Sat Nav software for example from your phone. Audio is transmitted over car speakers and the GPS passthrough antenna from Alpine is used by the phone.

Just bought one of these, just need the GS3 now but waiting on 64GB model :)
[Galaxy S III General] rahularora1:
Hey Laxity, i just ordered one of these as well, getting it installed in my Car today/tomorrow. Hope this works with the SGS3! I'm having reservations though - THE SGS3 with so many pre orders and not a single mention of compatibility from Alpine about this..? Surely if one of the most successful phones works well with this then its a huge huge advantage for Alpine to publicise this?

Edit: Just spoke to Alpine tech support - there is no current compatibility between the SGS3, however the firmware is a work in progress.
[Galaxy S III General] miorat:
Thank you very much,

I'd appreciate you to tell me anything new to add it to the first post or not. :good:
[Galaxy S III General] rahularora1:
Hi, Ok the SGS 3 bluetooth works brilliantly well with the Alpine ICS x8, inc bluetooth music streaming, phonebook transfer etc. No disconnects or other issues - Mirrorlink is non functional as yet neither is a USB cable connection (device not supported)to get music from the SGS3.

SGS3 is also compatible with the Mercedes Factory fitted bluetooth. No disconnects or other issues.
[Galaxy S III General] laxity:
I finally got my Galaxy S3 and yes the bluetooth phone support is excellent for calls, phonebook etc. I use the second USB port cable in my car arm rest for playing MP3's from the 32GB USB key I have plugged in. The main gripe I have is the music navigation interface which I find almost unusable. Why on earth they didn't implement a tree structure file browser to navigate through the directories on the USB key like on the IDA-X100 I don't know. The search mechanism they used is terrible and almost impossible to use with lots of music. I spoke to Alpine and they said they are going to ask the engineers if they can implement this. I hope they do.

As for Mirrorlink it is currently missing from the GS3 as apparently they are still working on it. Samsung support say they have very little information on Mirrorlink but they are going to check into it an let me know (I have a support case logged). I will feed back here with any updates. The Mirrorlink will either come as a software package apk or as part of a future firmware update.
[Galaxy S III General] rahularora1:
Great, please keep us updated on any developments...can i ask where you posted the samsung support case? i will do the same - the more people that do, the more they will see it as a priority.
[Galaxy S III General] laxity:
Good idea. Call the Samsung UK support hotline on :

UNITED KINGDOM

0330-7267864

Monday - Saturday: 9am - 6pm

Bank Holidays: 10am - 4pm

I think the options to select on the line was Option 3 (phones/tablets) -> Option 1 for Samsung Galaxy S3 support. The guy I spoke to was Kieran. You'll need to ask them to log a support ticket and ask them to contact their backline or engineering team to provide details on the status of MirrorLink software for GS3.
[Galaxy S III General] Tomaxda:
I don't think this has been mentioned so far - MHL TV's and Displays.

There are lots of these. Here is a list of the Samsung ones:

HDTV Monitors: T24B750V, T27B750V, T23B550V, T27B550V

LED Monitors: S24B750V, S27B750V, S23B550V, S27B550V, SB970

Smart Station : C24B750X, C27B750X, C24B550U

PN64E8000GF, PN60E8000GF, PN51E8000GF

46ES8000 HDTV, 55ES8000 HDTV, 60ES8000 HDTV, 65ES8000 HDTV, 75ES8000 HDTV

46ES7500 HDTV, 50ES7500 HDTV, 55ES7500 HDTV, 60ES7500 HDTV

46ES7100 HDTV, 50ES7100 HDTV, 55ES7100 HDTV, 60ES7100 HDTV

46D8000 HDTV, 55D8000 HDTV, 60D8000 HDTV, 65D8000 HDTV (Port 3)

46D7900 HDTV, 55D7900 HDTV

46D7000 HDTV, 55D7000 HDTV, 60D7000 HDTV (Port 3)

These are all NOT directly compatible with the Galaxy SIII since the MHL port on the SIII is not, well, I'm not really sure what it is, but it is the first MHL branded device that is not compatible with other MHL branded devices. I'm on rather a rant about this and have put up this site about it.

Note that Samsung has released a fake-MHL to real-MHL adapter that could be used (in conjunction with an MHL cable) to connect to these displays.
[Galaxy S III General] trevham:
I have a JVC KD-R331 car stereo with KS-BTA100 bluetooth adapter and get calls, music and voice dialling. Only thing is the phone doesnt auto connect when in range i have to manually select the BTA100 from the list of paired devices but all in all im pleased with the functionality.
[Galaxy S III General] s3droid:
It seems Samsung want to bring the functionallity of MirrorLink as an Update on end of August . Got that Information from the support Site of JVC.

[Galaxy S III General] laxity:
Nice find. Thanks for the update :)
[Galaxy S III General] lodger:
Sony XAV-601BT works great with bluetooth phones calls etc.....Just Waiting for Mirrorlink now
[Galaxy S III General] rahularora1:
Just had an update on the Alpine ICS- X8 which update sthe system for Android (s3) compatibility. Version no 1.2 for those interested.

Now waiting on SGS3 to be compatible!

Also looking at the sony compatibility page, its been updated as well to show the SGS3, but with the Drive Link app - apparently available on the sammy apps site (cant find it yet though) http://www.sony-asia.com/support/compatibility/499547#2

If any one comes across the Drive Link app please update.

Im sure with these developments the mirrorlink implementation from sammy must be around the corner...
[Galaxy S III General] lodger:
Thanks for this info i am updating my firmware on the stereo if the download was a bit faster .. Fingers cross sammy will hurry up
[Galaxy S III General] RuralGalaxy:
Nice to see again old friends here! Nice thread Miorat! Long time ago.... :D:D:D

[Galaxy S III General] laxity:
Excellent. Thanks for the info. Didn't see that because I kept checking on the bottom of the main Alpine ICS-X8 product page support section for updates (where the manuals are kept). Didn't know they created a seaparate page for this update!

For anyone else looking the direct link for the Galaxy S3 update for the Alpine unit its here :

Yup works with my alpine, thanks a ton mate, can't seem to get it to recognise my steering controls though..any one have an idea on this? Great start by Samsung, but still a few bugs to be ironed out
[Galaxy S III General] murso74:
just installed this on the galaxy note. seems to work
[Galaxy S III General] lodger:
my wheel controls dont work too.....if this was a beta i would be over the moon..., dont get me wrong i am very happy but room to improve.

if anyone need know i am running checkrom stock kernel.
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mihovil13:
Hi!

There are some great custom kernels (e.g. Siyah) for phones like e.g. SGS2 and they can speed up the whole phone, optimize battery completly and even make changes to some hardware that on stock isn't so changeable (like it's activity).

So my question is, are we stuck (and will be?) on only two kernels that are stock?
[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fiskenigaten:
The answer was the same yesterday, today and will be tomorrow: NO. Moto's policies still suck, and it doesn't look like they will change their mind any time soon. We only have the stock kernels they've provided and signed. Custom kernels come with unlocked bootloaders.

We do though, have many different stock kernels, E.G. CM9 kernel, 4.5.2-109-DHT-22 ("walter's kerne"l), 4.5.3-109, etc. They're all gingerbread, but they're all slightly different. It is true that we can roughly group them into froyo and gb kernel, and that's all we have.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] TheF3nix:
We all know that there is no CRT-off mod for the Neo /V. This is because only changing the value of config_animateScreenLights from true to false in framework-res.apk is not working anymore!

The problem is that are some missing commands in the /system/framework/services.jar

After comparing files from GB and ICS, i might have come up with a Method.

This will require some devs to continue on my work, as i don't have the proper tools to work on.

Hands-on:

This is what have to be done:

First of all decompile classes of services.jar (I won't provide any information to this, there are many tutorials out there how to use the smali tools!)

Then in com/android/server/PowerManagerService.smali we have to make the method nativeStartSurfaceFlingerAnimation(I)V callable from inner classes. To do that, we have to add the following after the last access$XXXX method:

.method static synthetic access$9000(Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;I)V
.registers 2
.parameter "x0"
.parameter "x1"

.prologue
.line 110
invoke-direct {p0, p1}, Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;->nativeStartSurfaceFlingerAnimation(I)V

return-void
.end method

Than we have to add some commands to the file com/android/server/PowerManagerService$BrightnessState.smali to trigger the CRT-off-effect. For that add the red part between :cond_38 and iget-object v4, p0, Lcom/a.... like this (its around line 400 in code):

.line 2679
.restart local v3 #turningOff:Z
:cond_38

[COLOR="red"]iget-object v4, p0, Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService$BrightnessState;->this$0:Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;

const/16 v3, 0x11 # CRT-On and CRT-Off

#calls: Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;->nativeStartSurfaceFlingerAnimation(I)
invoke-static {v4, v3}, Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;->access$9000(Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;I)V[/COLOR]

iget-object v4, p0, Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService$BrightnessState;->this$0:Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;

#getter for: Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;->mScreenBrightness:Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService$BrightnessState;
invoke-static {v4}, Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;->access$6000(Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;)Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService$BrightnessState;

move-result-object v4

Lastly, recompile the file, put it on your phone CRT-off effect will be magically displayed.

Lastly, i really seek the devs help to work on this and bring success to this work:D
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] SsneakersS:
Wow :) that will be great when we have this on ICS

Write in my mobile :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] jjdoctor:
what do u mean by magically displayed? u made it to work or its still a work in progress?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] TheF3nix:
Work in Progress? Just follow my steps. I haven't try it out yet. Not sure whether it will work
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] jjdoctor:
we need modified surfaceflinger.so and sufaceflingerclient.so to get it to work...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] gregbradley:
Is anyone working on this anymore?

This would be a great mod to have again
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] adulfo:
Really waiting to have that on my Ray... CM Based ROM have this effect... So nice.... As I decompile CM ROM, animatescreenlights is set to TRUE. What I saw new is the config_screenOffAnimations, that line on bool.xml and not present on Stock ROMS I think (some?).
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] nh1402:
What if you compare the surfaceflinger and surfaceflingerclient from cm9 and stock roms, they can't be that different right?, maybe thats the way to go, to get this to work.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] gregbradley:
The latest cm 9.1 stable has CRT enabled....

Surely someone can now port this to stock ICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's a good thing that VLC Media player supports Auto subtitles detection, but the performance of the app is slow. Rewinding or forwarding the bar is very unresponsive! Takes lots of time to set the time of the video. The subtitle layout is strange, for transcribed.srt it's 3 layer which is annoying, where as Closed Captions srt shows 2 which is fine.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] vipfreak:
I wanted a as slim as possible case and I wanted it to protect all the way around the perimeter of the phone. Here are the choices (in order from first to last), help me decide.

Rearth Ringke Slim - At $28 it's a bit expensive and it doesn't cover the sides. Also looks to be less grippy since it's hard smooth plastic.

BoxWave Blackout - I'm worried it's thicker than a case like the Rearth, but with that said it protects all around and is really cheap at $12. I think the material is more rubber like which sounds more appealing to a gloss hard case. Not many reviews anywhere for this case.

elago G4elago G4 - I'm not sure about this case in general.

Thanks for your input.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] azzledazzle:
Personally I like the Leather style flip cases, The one that doubles up as a wallet.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BLACK-WAL..._MobilePhonesCasesPouches&hash=item3374db7913

I would never pay more than £10 (delivered) for a case.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] little-vince:
in terms of slimness i've basically narrowed it down to two giants.

1. sgp ultra thin

2. casemate barely there.

not sure which ones better but from what i can tell they're pretty much the same, both at a hefty 25 bucks.

anyways, i'm in the same boat as you. XD

not sure which case to get. :P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] glenroebuck:
I have the rearth and it is very slim, the only down side it is a beeeoootch to take off (i have a dock/charger for the phone) and if you take it on and off a lot it cracks and the part closet to the usb port cover, nothing earth shattering it actually makes it much easier to take the case off - that and the sgp ultra clear and it is almost like having nothing on the phone at all.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] LxMxFxD:
I have used diztronic cases for the last year (for my SII and now my N7000). They are very similar to the boxweave case you posted.

http://www.amazon.com/Diztronic-Fle...0386413&sr=8-3&keywords=diztronic+galaxy+note

As you know TPU protects like a silicon case but doesn't stick in your pocket or collect lint and dust due to it not being "sticky" feeling. I recently sold my SII for over $300 after 8 months of daily use because my SII was in perfect condition as a result of being in a diztronic tpu case. No, I never dropped the phone on cement or anything but I dropped my SII on the carpet from 5+ feet and the phone was unchanged when I picked it up. Didn't pop out of case or battery, etc. Because the tpu cases have a 1/8 or so "lip" on the front they also allow the phone to be placed face down on flat surfaces. IMHO and experience, a good tpu case is all you need to fully protect your phone unless you work in construction or somehow expect to drop it on cement.

So, my vote goes to the boxweave or diztronic cases. BTW I got 2 diztronics for $14 from amazon, the black matte and smoke matte. Great deal!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Accessories] vipfreak:
^I'm actually thinking of getting a real cheap TPU case like that I can mod. My ideal case is a TPU Bumper, maybe the Boxwave Black out without the back part but have the vol and power buttons cut out. I guess it's just not feasible so far... ?

Anyway, Thanks for the input so far guys, keep it coming.
