[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dmelnyk:
Hi folks:

Just got a Galaxy S III - moving up from HTC Touch Pro 2After doing an initial set up and sync with Google (not sure how) I noticed that "S Planner" app seems to have an 'account" from one of my contacts and is showing all their calendar information. Not sure how that happened ... is there a way to "remove" the account for this individual under my s planner app? How do I ensure that MY calendar information is NOT being diseminated across the web?

Any assistance / info would be greatly appreciated ... really don't want to have to do a reset of the phone to factory specs!

Best regards, Dave Melnyk

There are many hard cases on the market and most feel like hard plastic shells. This case actually feels like rubber with the stiffness of plastic. It just feels like quality. It also manages to come about 1/4 of an inch further on the bottom and top to cover more area. The cutouts around the power and volume rockers are recessed which make a world of difference when pushing the already almost flush buttons. It also give extremely good grip. I dropped my first galaxy s3 with a casemate on it and that case didn't have any bottom or top protection and my phone suffered. I posted a picture of the damage and the casemate. If it were in the rearth it would have survived without a scratch. I can't say enough how good this case feels in the hand. Its a really slick phone and it needs a grippy case.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] desertdog:
Glad to hear a good review. I ordered one of these for my preordered S3.:fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Tomatoes8:
I ordered this, the casemate barely there, the Nilkin hard case, and I bought an Affinity smoke glass hardshell from Bestbuy that I was planning to return once I got one of the cases I ordered but boy does it look nice. I might keep it. It looks gorgeous.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Tazer2death:
Is there any angle that would hit the bottom or top edge if you dropped it? like facing 45 degrees forward?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] falconeight:
No there isn't unless it falls on a squared edge. Plus the rubbery coating gives extra protection.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ddurandSGS3:
if i ever buy a hardcase for my galaxy it will be this one.

glad to hear it works well.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cowvin:
Wow. After this case came, on the website they are giving away lanyard strap with it.......
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jitz:
could you post some pics of the phone with the case on it?

Thanks :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eazyweazy3:
Had the Slim on my SII and my Note. Absolutely loved them.

If I had a III this would be the case for me without a doubt.

It's a shame that they don't have any plans to release one for the One X.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] cryptkeeper12:
Ordered one last night. Never used a case on my Epic 4G but that's because they were a pain to find. Looks thin enough which was my only concern. Didn't want to add on a lot of extra bulk. Thanks :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] falconeight:
I could but they wouldn't do any justice to the pics on the rearth website.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] yeahmon:
I bought one of these for my Note. For the $30 I paid for it, I expected more. Why they don't make the plastic go all the way around the bezel is beyond me. I will pass on this one for the S3.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] liamR:
I think it would be fragile, that the reason no cases manufacturer makes a case like this with the bottom and the top covered.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jrfriend:
Just ordered mine, thanks for the recommendation.

It took me a while though as I could not find a slime case!

:-))
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jonny68:
Is there a link for these cases Google isn't bringing up anything

[Galaxy S III Accessories] kaal1010:
Looks nice but for me cases with volume/power cut outs just feel awkward to me. I much prefer the built in buttons
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ristokoo:
Maybe try to search for slim case. But if you really want slime then keep looking...
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mercado79:
@falconeight thanks for the suggestion. just ordered from their official site. they're offering free 2-3 day shipping. it can't come soon enough. i'm so stressed that something bad will happen to my new baby! :)

http://www.rearthusa.com/galaxy_s3_ringke_case

i think it's the size of the phone. large, but thin, that makes me feel like it will not take a fall very gracefully. fingers crossed until the case arrives.

oh also, in case anyone is having problems googling the case... it's Rearth Ringke Slim (the OP is missing a "g" and added the "e" in slime LOL)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ludow:
This is an advertisement, not a review. :p
[Galaxy S III Accessories] v3rn:
Got my Ringke Slim the other day. Similar to my Galaxy Nexus one, except it doesn't protect the top and bottom and it doesn't come with a screen protector or rubber port protectors. Overall I love it though, very thin. But after receiving my ROCK case, I'll probably use that more often. If you're looking for something that will make it look like you don't have a case on it, this is it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] liamR:
Which one is better the ROCK case or the Rearth case?

Thanks

Sent from outta space
[Galaxy S III Accessories] v3rn:
They're both pretty much the same thing. It's whether or not you like the color and material. They're both great build quality and the same thickness and size.

The Ringke is a glossy plastic, I'm assuming that is similar to the back of the phone. While the Rock is this really soft touch material. I love the way the Rock feels, but not sure if everyone will like it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mercado79:
I'm with ya. I wish I could see both in person before buying, but... I felt I needed something that would arrive relatively quickly. The Rock cases (from China at least) will take weeks. I may order one of the generic Rock cases and see how those turn out. Only $6.99 for 3!

[Galaxy S III Accessories] v3rn:
I ordered my Rock from Amazon and it took like 2-3 days to get here.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] firetruck41:
My SGS3 Rearth Ringke Slim is not glossy, it is a soft touch/rubberized matte black. I didn't even notice a gloss option when I ordered mine.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] v3rn:
Well the black is called Matte Black, while the white is called Alpine White. So I would assume the black is matte and the white isn't.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] siphuyoda:
Is there any clip-style holsters that will work with the Ringke? I'm looking for something similar to the Seidio Surface but without all that extra bulk.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] TecQuality:
gimme a link please :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] v3rn:
http://www.amazon.com/Rock-Samsung-Quicksand-Composite-Poly-carbonate/dp/B0089E44OM

Ordered from Four Covers
[Galaxy S III Accessories] TecQuality:
damn i can't find it in Europe ... :(
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rlb4:
The Seidio Surface covers the entire bezel and is just as thin. The only way to get a hard case to cover the entire bezel is to make it a 2 piece. Since they are basically the same thickness, I'll bet the Ringke or Rock cases will fit in the Seidio holster. Anyone try?

Quick question.. Is it possible to switch numbers that are on the same family plan? My dad Is letting me use his upgrade to get the S3 and I'll give him my S2 but we want to keep our current numbers. Do you think sprint will switch our numbers?

yes its called an esn swap. Tell the rep.

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kgp700:
What is benefit of reduce kernel size?

and What is benefit of xz decompression?

only faster booting time?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] It_ler:
Main reason for most kernel devs to reduce kernel size by decompression is that the system partition (in which the kernel has to be placed) is no so big.

Some kernel devs have already reached the size limit with adding many modules, libs and add-ons, that on some phone's the kernel can't be flashed any more.

I think that e.g. gokhanmoral has come to this situation with a special version of his ICS SiyahKernel ... maybe you should have a look at his changelog.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kgp700:
oh i see

thank you answer:)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ookba:
So, I dusted off my Infuse 4G Car Dock and voila! The S3 fits! Height is perfect but the S3 is a tad narrower than the Infuse so some very minor side to side alignment prior to sliding the connector in is required. Other than that it fits like it was made for it! Enjoy! :laugh:

Update:

Audio output works as well!

[Galaxy S III Accessories] cryptkeeper12:
Dude, you are my hero right now. I've been spoiled by my Epic 4G dock for the past 2 years and I really didn't want to spend close to $90 for the brodit stuff.

Thank you :)

EDIT: Does the phone pop back out too easily? Gravity probably helps yours stay in but I keep my dock on my windshield and just wanted to know to avoid having it fall out forward. Thanks again
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ookba:
Yea snaps in firmly and pops out easy. No worry about it falling out.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] KennyLegend:
Great find ookba and thanks. Is that the exact dock u linked to with the charging slider too,?

Also, does this come with the wiring harness?

I'm guessing that being slightly narrower might mean the phone might dock with a thin case on? Ie case mate barely there, incipio feather case etc.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] KryptosXLayer2:
Just to be 100% clear, we're talking about THIS car mount, right?

http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-INFUS...8949&sr=8-1&keywords=samsung+infuse+car+mount

I was JUST about to order it until I realized.... I already have the OEM Samsung one for the D710, here are the dimensions to compare:

i997 - 132 x 71 x 9 mm

D710 - 130 x 70 x 10 mm

The D710 car dock doesn't output audio for my SGSII Skyrocket, but that's okay because I have Bluetooth audio streaming in the car now if it doesn't.... going to keep the mount ready to install when I finally get my SGSIII in hand to test it and will report back with the findings! Wouldn't that be awesome if I didn't have to buy another car dock.....

EDIT - I also just realized you said the SIII is a tad narrower than the Infuse, so this being 2mm narrower might be a better fit!

MAJOR EDIT - I just received the SIII today, and while driving home with it, I tried it out on the D710 dock - it works just the same as the Infuse dock, so if you can't find the one for the Infuse, buy the Sprint Epic Touch 4G (Galaxy SII, D710) dock here:

[Galaxy S III Accessories] john9:
Thanks for sharing.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ookba:
Yea the SGH-i997 is the one I tested this with. Works like a charm. Outputs audio, etc. Does not come with any harnesses. The one you see is something I wired up. The dock has audio output and microUSB charge input.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] tdwilli1:
I can also confirm that this works. Snapped right in, S3 went into dock mode and everything works great. Also as someone else mentioned in the other thread I used velcro and attached it to my Proclip vehicle mount.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] anilkuj:
Anyone looking to buy this ,

i am planning to buy it from here

http://www.all4cellular.com/product...tml?siteID=PvTvb1zzm2o-YOVY53MtVIZpTBEcmQbotg

this was on Woot few months ago , looks like the price is still a go !!

[Galaxy S III Accessories] CZ Eddie:
Get the funk out, I just sold one of my Infuse car docks cuz I figured it wouldn't work.

And I used it all the time on my Skyrocket.

But you're right! It snaps right in there! Good thing I had another dock.

---------- Post added at 01:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:36 PM ----------

I've been using the Infuse car dock with my Skyrocket for about seven months.

It's a GREAT dock. Only twice has the suction cup lost grip and fallen off my windshield. :D

Stoked that I can use it with my SIII also now! :good:

---------- Post added at 01:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:42 PM ----------

Here are some more videos of the dock. This is me using it as a DESKTOP dock with my Skyrocket:

These are the only ones I've ever found/used with a case

http://www.ebay.com/itm/SlipGrip-Ca...ccessories&hash=item2570ef0aaa#ht_2782wt_1037
[Galaxy S III Accessories] RikF:
CZ - how much 'wiggle' would you say that it has when you are plugging it in as OP mentioned? Any danger of scratching the bottom as you try to get the USB in? Something that might be cured by a little electrical tape on the insides of the dock, or a very thin case?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] faulkton:
great info.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] nmhung100:
I can confirm it too. I had an old Samsung Infuse car mount in my drawer, just took it out and tried it. It fit really perfectly, so surprised. I just cancelled order for new one. It was tested on road. Perfect. Saving a lot money and making me smile a lot. It made my day.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] CZ Eddie:
Absolutely no wiggle at all. The phone kind of clicks into place in the dock, even without the USB plugged in.

It does take two hands to put it in and remove it. It's that tight. But not TOO tight.

I haven't had any issues with the USB plug. Seems to be about perfectly aligned to me? But then I do have a body wrap on my phone.

No case will work on this though. It's too tight for that. Not that I've tried, but I really doubt any case will fit.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] RikF:
Fantastic - I'll get my order in :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] anilkuj:
Just got my mount today.

All4cellular shipped really quick.

Thanks to op for the tip the mount fits great with my s3 , with Nfc tag attached it's perfect !!!!

as a bonus this mount also works with my galaxy nexus . This the best 17$ I have spent :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ansextra:
I use Car Home Ultra and really like it. Free for 30 days but it has some features I wanted so I purchased it for $1.99. Well worth it in my opinion!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] vdn20:
By any chance, do you leave you screen on when you drive or do you turn it off? If you turn it off, does it turn back on after a little bit? Right now I'm debate on whether I should keep the dock or not because I'm having that problem
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ansextra:
I've actually never tried turning it off. If I have it in the car dock I usually want it to be on.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] vdn20:
Okay, thanks for the info. I'm wondering, do you always have it plugged in? If so, does it drain your battery a lot?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Yankee0750:
It does turn back on, I have Car Home Ultra also.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ansextra:
Yes I always keep the car dock plugged in. That was the primary reason I purchased the Infuse dock. It does not really drain the battery at all. Even with the GPS I seem to gain battery charge when using the S3.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] vdn20:
Okay, good to know. I just prefer not to plug my phone in when I don't need .
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ansextra:
I don't plug my phone in when I don't need it. I plug my phone in when I anticipate that I may possibly need it. Usually that's when I'm going somewhere that I need the GPS. Otherwise I just keep bluetooth on in case I get or need to make a call. Usually it's the longer trips that I plug the phone in.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eagle63:
Thank you, this is easier than what I was doing before. I still stand by my statements that this is a really tight fit, and it definitely doesn't feel like the dock was "made for this device", but it does work. So now that I've used it for a couple of days, I ran into a weird problem:

I use the 3.5mm headphone jack on the dock itself to output audio to my vehicle. I also have bluetooth connected to my car stereo which is used for phone calls only. This is exactly how I had it working with my GS2. (same vehicle) If I was listening to music/podcasts/etc, it would pipe through the audio jack on the dock into the auxillary audio jack on my car stereo. If I phone call came in, it would happen over bluetooth. In the bluetooth settings for that connection, I would only have the "phone" option selected. ("media" checkbox was not selected)

But now with the GS3, it doesn't seem to let me have that setup. Once the device is paired with my car, it wants to have BOTH phone and media options selected, not just phone which is what I want. If I uncheck the media box, it automatically re-selects it a few moments later.

Anyone else have this problem?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] KryptosXLayer2:
I know the whole "to each, their own" business, but that's the weirdest thing I've heard in a while when it comes to electronics! Why would you NOT want free juice for your phone? And what's this all about being worried your phone will drain your car battery???

Look, I've built custom vehicles for a living since 1996, I know a thing or two about onboard electrical systems and even a little about the phones in question.... If you have a chance to charge your phone during the day and you don't take it, you can regret it later if you needed that extra power! Currently, I just unplugged my phone from being on the charger overnight and it says I have about 30 hours left on the battery, but that number changes if I talk on it for the next 5 hours straight!

I remember one time I had to rush to the scene of an accident for my girlfriend and then spent 6 hours in the hospital after beating on my Atrix all day, and I could have used extra battery while calling her family and updating them every 5 minutes.....

The point is, you never know when you'll need it, but the monster battery in your car isn't going to drain just by plugging in your phone, especially while you're driving! When you're parked, you probably have about a month of battery stored to keep your phone charged, so why anyone is considering not charging it while driving or parked is beyond me - hell, I even have upgraded to 2.1A chargers in my cars to give my phone more juice, faster, when compared to the cheap 1A chargers you all are using, I have no fear of killing my battery or whatever else is your reasoning for not utilizing the integrated charger on this awesome dock!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ansextra:
While I appreciate the time you spent forumulating this reply I don't recall EVER saying that I was worried about using up my car battery and that was the reason for not plugging in my phone every time I got in the car. If I did, please reference it specifically.

There are, in fact, times that I do not plug my phone in. Sometimes I just go to the store to do food shopping or run an errand. I will take my chances during those 5 or 10 minute trips and pray that my battery doesn't run out or that there is excessive draining of my battery. Every time I get in my car it is not for 1/2 or more believe it or not. SOMETIMES I'm going someplace relatively close. As long as my bluetooth is on (which I always turn on when in the car) I will tough it out without plugging the phone in.

Kindly focus your rants on words that were actually said please.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] KryptosXLayer2:
It wasn't just towards you, chief.... I said specifically that OTHERS had mentioned about the dock being plugged in drains their battery - read a few posts above yours.... Sorry for singling you out by quoting you alone, I'll fix it if it really bothered you so much!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ansextra:
I appreciate that but I would think when you quote someone that the reply is relevant to the quote. If you are referring to other posts then you should possibly say that you are. Since you quoted my post specifically I naturally "assumed" that you were replying to me. I don't know how I could have gotten that idea... :confused:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] KryptosXLayer2:
Yep, it's been "fixed" now, no need to whine any longer.......
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ansextra:
My post was as far from "whining" as it is possible to be. You possibly have perception issues as well as posting issues? I'm done with this immaturity now.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] vdn20:
My fault, I typed it wrong. I not worried about the car battery. What I was trying to say was when it's not plugged in, does it drain the phone battery a lot having the car dock ultra on with all the updates it does. Sorry for the confusion.

A light sanding in each corner from my Dremel sanding wheel and it fits GREAT! Just be sure to sand inside bottoms of the corners so there is still some plastic to retain the phone into the dock
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Bielinsk:
I would be careful with this. My first dremel I took too much off the bottom and the phone would never center correctly in the mount.

So bought a new one and all is well.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] jebise101:
what no car home app in the US? That mean no car home app in canada might as well get a universal dock and Car Home Ultra.

Can someone please confirm there is no car home app? My main reason was to use the native car mode, if its not included this dock is a waste. I would just get a universal car mount and use the headphone jack + Car Home Ultra.

I have been looking for a car home application that automatically switches me to landscape mode when I dock (even though I have it locked on portrait normally) does car home ultra have this setting?

The phone must be set to "screen rotation" for the screen to rotate. Car Home Ultra can not overwrite the phone settings as far as I am aware.
