I also have echo issues when using the 3.5 output on the phone. When using headphones or an aux cable to my stereo, the S3 seems to disable noise cancellation. While on a call i will try to turn it on and it says it is not available while using headphones.

If i use the dock 3.5 audio out, the sound is louder but lacks bass which makes it "thinner" sounding. I could deal with this by EQing but i still cannot seem to get the callers voice routed to the docks 3.5 without turning on the external speaker on the phone. Then it partially routes to the speaker and partially to the docks 3.5 aux out to my vehicles stereo.

Sadly those adapters I bought did not work:( Looks like they are only charging adapters. I'm going to take it apart and see..

Oh well. I can vouch that the cables from usbfirewire.com do work. I got the one that right angles down. I pulled the PC board out of the Infuse dock and have everything hooked up and tucked under the dash. Looks and works great.

Have you ordered from tech2date via ebay? USPS First Class Mail International or USPS Priority Mail International?

Looks like fast shipping to Germany :good: :laugh:

Correct, but I have ordered from Germany 2 (USPS First Class Mail International).

Just wanted 2 know if mc-paulo has ordered it via USPS First Class Mail International or USPS Priority Mail International.

Because he can't have ordered it b4 the 28th of June (Link) and already has received it on the 7th. :laugh:

I can wait - even don't have my SIII now :angel:

AT&T Infuse Dock

Picked up an Infuse 4G dock at an AT&T company store today for half price... it was the last one they had on the shelf. The fit is plenty good and the camera lines up just fine for use as a dash cam. Thanks for the OP's heads up on this!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] pinoiryder:
does anyone have tried if the infuse multimedia dock will work also?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] JimSmith94:
If you mean the Infuse desk dock, yes it does, at least on my Sprint Nexus. In fact, with the Google Car Home And Dock installed, it brings up the clock app when inserted.

I tried it while I was in the store buying the mobile dock and the SGH-T999 would not fit. The phone is just a touch too wide to slip down and make contact with the connector.

Not my video, but this is the one I used on my Sprint Epic 4G Touch and now my Galaxy Nexus: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eC8GPTeL_-o

I bought it and the car dock together for around $18 total when AT&T was closing them out a year or so ago. :cool:

Any chance to order this in Europe (Germany)?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] hetman6:
So I understand the phone goes into car mode when you plug in the usb part, does that include auto enabling speaker when you receive a call?

If not is there anyway to force that?

My old Nexus One dock had that feature and it was awesome. I had the official HTC Google Nexus One dock. It actually created a bluetooth connection when you plugged it in. Only downside is this flimsy clip at the top that was used to hold the phone, it ended up braking, on two different docks. RIP nexus one :crying:

hi guys,

right i have found a uk supplier,

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B004WOBMIY/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00

i order it friday night, and recieved it this morning, i can confirm the fit is not perfect (angles are different on the corners), but it does a more than adiquate job of holding it (even with me violently shaking it over my bed), when inserting the usb connector the phone goes into dock mode (i currently use car home ultra, as sammy have yet to release the sammy car home app in the uk, yes i have an apk of it from the us), what else can i say, except thanks to the original poster for the heads up, and thanks to the US seller who also sells in the uk.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ansextra:
Just for the record the car home app is not in the US versions either. I believe Samsung is trying to force everyone to use S-Voice. I purchased Car Home Ultra as well. It works great and does exactly what I need.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] goodwidp:
Can anyone who is using the Infuse dock confirm/deny the audio out sound issues some folks are reporting? I would much rather have a custom dock as opposed to universal, and buying the Infuse dock would save some $ over a official S3 dock (I would imagine), but sound quality is a priority for me. I understand that any sound issues could be alleviated by simply plugging the AUX cord into the phone's headphone jack but that somewhat defeats the purpose of choosing a custom mount over a universal. Thanks!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] MadBob:
I bought mine on eBay delivered in 6 days from US for £14 (total cost incl delivery) from tech2date
[Galaxy S III Accessories] sblees:
The sound quality through the dock is not as good as through the head phone jack of the phone. The good news is that you can plug in to the head phone jack while using the dock.

On another note, I've noticed that while plugged into the dock the phone gets really hot while charging. If I charge my phone with the same plug but directly into the phone it does not get hot.

Has anyone noticed this?

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ansextra:
Could that possibly be due to the phone being pressed against the dock rather than being in the open air? I haven't checked this myself. Whenever I plug the phone in while in the car I use the dock.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] sblees:
I don't know, but I had a dock just like this one for my galaxy s captivate and it never got hot while I had it in the dock unless I left the screen on for a long time. However unless I am using the phone I always turn the screen off manually and the phone still gets hot as crap.

Also, I am using the oem Samsung charger that came with my captivate's dock. So the voltage should be good.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ansextra:
I've never had a Captivate but I would have to think processing power isn't nearly as much as with the S3. Once again I could be wrong about this.

Any idea where to buy in Australia? Tried amazon and the shipping is the same as the dock!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] socalwrx:
I really liked this dock but im not going to stick with it because its hard to get in and out. you also end up pressing the volume rocker/power button. But its probably the nicest car dock you can get for this phone.

Also if anyone is interested, I just got my sgp ultra thin case and it fits (though very tightly)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] perusmuro:
Sound quality is little flat that is only bad think on this dock.

When i tried that i noticed that bass is missing.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ansextra:
I've noticed the same thing with the volume rocker although I haven't had a problem with the power button. Even so, unless Samsung comes out with a dock with these features for the Galaxy S3 I'm sticking with it.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jubmasterflex:
Blame Samsung, they've done this with previous devices, thankfully an easy fix is installing an equalizer app.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] cleblanc92:
I am considering a light sanding with a dremel wheel at the corners...it won;t take much....we'll see.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] wacktool:
I just want to use the dock for car mode and charging. All calls and music will be going over Bluetooth. Does bluetooth audio sound ok?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] the_buzz_man:
Do what I did....get an exogear exomount to hold the phone and run an extension cable from the infuse dock to the phone. Works great. Just hide the infuse dock somewhere else or pull the pc board out and hide that. The pc board is all you really need.

My Review

I just got this infuse Doc for the galaxy ordered from, http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/accessories/cases/sku5190308.html#fbid=sSwhJLzaGnH. The dock itself works like a champ for the VZW Galaxy S3 and my only complaint is when someone calls it will not go through your car speaker unless you have it plugged into the 3.5 jack on the phone as opposed to the infuse device. However all of my callers complain of a "echo" when speaking to them so I will just use bluetooth instead. Hopefully this is something that can be fixed in an update from samsung.

I have not had any audio quality or bass issues at all. It sounds awesome driving with primarily slacker radio. The slider to plug it in can be a little bit tricky but once you get the hang of it no worries. Excellent looking car mount and works for me.. My 2 C.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] willbur73:
I have had the dock for about a week now, and for some reason the dock no longer charges my phone. The audio out works perfectly, but no power.

It doesn't really surprise me though; the way that the port plugs in to the phone is difficult and sometimes doesn't plug in well. It seems like a poor design.

Maybe I just got unlucky though.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Ansextra:
If you're talking about the Infuse dock you can't really blame the design since it wasn't designed for the S3... I can say that I haven't had any problems with mine.

Infuse Dock Upgrade

There's a nice upgrade for the Infuse Car Dock if you don't like the suction cup mounting.

PorClipUSA makes a series of vehicle mounts along with a series of device-specific holders. They don't have a powered S3 dock yet, but they do have a gadget that attaches to their vehicle mounts and also attaches to the back of the Infuse dock. Here's a pic of the gadget:

And here's a link to the gadget.

The way proclip works is that you buy the vehicle mount for your particular car separately from the device mount. In this case, you would just buy the vehicle mount here, then the gadget, then put it all together with the Infuse Dock to make a really nice package. That's what I've done, and it works very well.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] KryptosXLayer2:
Now they've gone and done it.... While that works well and ties everything together, you know you could have easily removed the mount on the back of the phone at simply used industrial strength Velcro to both sides to have a flush mounted car dock instead of waiting $35 on that thing? The backside of the Infuse dock is flat minus the slots for the mount, and the ProClip attachment to your car is flat as well, so streamline it while still giving you the ability to swivel - just pull off the dock and reposition it with the Velcro!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] baudi11:
Velcro is not stable enough (for me) -- too bouncy. Also it doesn't give you the ability to tilt up/down/left/right.

To each his own, I suppose.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] KryptosXLayer2:
Industrial strength Velcro has held on interior panels for me without rattling in a car with an 800W stereo system with two 10" subwoofers.... pretty sure it will hold up! and if ProClip did their job, you won't have to angle anything, mine is in the perfect angle, will take pics soon

I couldnt get my s3 to run audio out of dock.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] LS1 Sounds:
My Infuse dock came in yesterday, and works great with my S3. Thanks for the tip! Dock audio must be enabled, as described earlier in this thread. Oh, and my audio quality from the line out is pretty good with strong bass (I have JL subs) compared to the same MP3 burned to a CD and played back by my head unit.

I have no idea how truly flat this phone + dock line out's frequency response is, but it could always be corrected with an EQ. Just keep in mind that many factory stereos already have custom EQ curves built in, which sometimes even change with volume. So, anything you feed the head unit may get further processing.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eagle63:
I'm a little perplexed after reading this thread. I have the Infuse car dock and used it for months with my Epic 4G touch. (sprint galaxy s 2) However, I can barely squeeze my new Galaxy S 3 into this dock.. yet I keep reading lots of "... like it was made for this phone..." comments. Using both hands and going slowly and carefully I CAN manage to get it in the dock, but I need to apply downward pressure on the usb connector to avoid scraping the bottom of the phone on it while shoe-horning the thing in. So yes, I can get it in but it fits about as well as a pair of pants that are about 3 sizes too small.

So either my Infuse car dock has magically shrunk, or you all are exaggerating on how "perfect" the fit is with the SGS3. :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Jubmasterflex:
From my experience, the easiest way to dock the device is to place the upper half of the device FIRST into the dock. Once you have placed both corners successfully into the dock, ensure that you have slide the connector portion as far out as possible. Once you've done this, begin placing the bottom half portion of the device into the dock. You really shouldn't have any issues with clearance if you take the necessary precautions.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Bielinsk:
There is no possible way the SG3 will fit into the car dock for the SG2. I have both, and while they appear to be the same size, they are very different.

The SG3 does fit into the Infuse car dock.

SG2 had a specific dock for the SG2.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] eagle63:
Re-read my post. I have the Infuse car dock and I was using it with my SGS2. (epic 4g touch)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] KryptosXLayer2:
You guys are both right and both wrong..... The Epic 4G Touch is the size of the SGSII Skyrocket that I had, I know because I have a D710 dock I used before buying the Infuse dock and giving my girl the D710 dock.... The SGSII he's probably talking about is the International or first AT&T version that is much smaller than both the D710 and the Skyrocket, which is why that won't fit!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] vdn20:
I just got my phone and dock and I'm loving it, but I got one problem with it. When it's in car dock mode, when I turn off the screen, it turns back on in a minute and it reloads the car dock app, is anyone else having that problem? Typically I don't want the screen on to waste my battery, but I do want it in car dock so it's easier to make phone calls. Also, what app are you guys using for the car dock? Thanks

Google+ used massive data excessive too much

Without warning my Samsung phone with anroid and google+ used up 4GB of data in one week. I checked and found google+ used over 3.7GB in the "background" and I was not even using the phone. I don't even use google+. I even tried to uninstall it from the phone with no luck. Google+ has cost me 20 dollars that I got nothing of value in return. I recommend throwing your phone with google+ in the garbage and buying anything else. Verizon claimed that they didn't know about this problem, but I find that hard to believe. This problem in all over the internet since May. Verizon did say that I would be responsible for paying for the data since it is not their fault that Google+ used all of that data. I cannot recomend strongly enough that everyone take any phone with Google+ and put it in the trash. My wife has a friend that works for Google and she even mentioned that google is using their technology to collect private data. That could be why there is soo much data usage in the background. Google is using the data that I pay for to collect my private information and putting it on the web and using it for marketing.

Throw your Google devices away.

Here I'm posting the APN settings for both BSNL and UNINOR (trying UNINOR since yesterday).

Started Atrix-2 on BSNL India network in Dec 11 and getting APN settings is a cake walk with BSNL. Then tried UNINOR SIM a week back and found the coverage to be good at my Res and Off. Had a lot of trouble getting the settings from Uninor, as I think, they do not have the settings for Atrix-2 in their server. Then found out a GREAT app "TWEAKKER" on Google Play and ran it with WiFi. It simply tweaked the APN settings for uninor india. I thought of sharing the settings here. BSNL and UNINOR settings are given below:
