Yeah, I literally did this last week. My phone was listed as new-other it definitely wasn't new, but in very good condition. Activated at Verizon without a hitch.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] netbuzz:
Shouldn't you be asking this question before buying the phone? And yes, you should be good, as long as the phone is as you described.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Quantas:
yes, I should have done a little more research before I bought it, oh well, live and learn, glad I should be ok though!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NewForce:
Like to check with all here, are S3 headset audio output volume consider to be on the low side?

The reason I ask this was, 2 days ago just got my car AUX line in cable replaced the L/R RCA adapter casing cracking and hollow sound immediately or after sometime of playback. The AUX cable are plugged into headset output of a Sony MW600 stereo bluetooth that connected to my S3, iPad2/new iPad.

During the diagnost by the car mechanic, he uses AUX cable directly plugged to an iPhone4, the volume come from it was much higher compare to plugged with S3 headset jack. Both iPhone4 & S3 was at max volume but can say it's around 6~10dB different or 250% volume gain with iPhone4. Never did I reliaze this different as most of the time I was using my stereo bluetooth to feed my car stereo AUX line.

Next thing I'd tried, out of convenience for MP3 playback through my car stereo I've decided to purchase a cheap China made Nano5 MP3/4 player (with camera), the one look like the long & slim old iPod Nano with small screen. Playing it through my TDK BA200 iem the SQ was mediocre and with much lesser bass than S3 or iPad3. But to my suprise, when connecting it to my car stereo, the max sound volume was even higher than eiher S3 and iPad3., not to mentioned the bass are also more punchy than the other 2.

With 2 different results,

1. S3 audio playback through TDK BA200 iem, SQ and bass are super, loud and fuller, but through my car AUX line are otherwisely low bass & volume.

2. MIC MP3 playbakc through TDK BA iem, SQ are mediocre, lower bass & volume, but through my car AUX line SQ are good, loud and good bass.

So now I am confused. Should I considered S3 headset output consider low volume? Or it was because of compatibility or impedance issues? Hope anyone good in audio experiences can explain/advice me on the S3 different audio output behaviour. Many thanks!

Btw, my car was Renault Laguna III 2.0A Turbo with original head unit and 8 Pioneer components speakers.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NewForce:
JJEgan,

Thanks for your reply. Yes, with normal iem Galaxy S3 headset output considered loud.

My problem was when S3 plugged into my car stereo AUX line in it was otherwisely low volume and light bass.

This is comparing S3 with made in China MP3 player, iPhone4 and the built in CD Player.

I'm still puzzling why was S3 behaved that way.

Alright, by listening to your advice I've found this, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1722136

Thank you very much!

It really helps to solved all the hassles.

Now I no longer hunger for alternate cheap iPhone4 or iPod to use with my car stereo AUX line in.

Problem

Now, I've got this very weird problem. When I plug the headphones and play a Midi using the default player (only when using the default player), the volume is low even on 15. BUT

this doesn't happen when it plays any other filetype (mp3, etc...)

:confused: . Also, Midis play louder (as they should) when I open them using another file explorer (ex. Es file explorer) with the default player. Does anybody know how to solve that issue? I can't find anything that can help on the net. :eek:

I upgraded from a HTC Imagio running Windows Mobile 6.5 to the Samsung Galaxy S3 and it is my first foray into the Android world, so I hope you can help with the following. As you can see, it was a big step up the ladder of mobile operating systems!

1. If I have a name prefix for my contact in the contact list, like Mr./Ms./Mrs./Dr., the name does not autocomplete for that contact from the phone keypad. When I enter the letters of the first or last name on the phone keypad, the contact does not show up. However, if I delete the name prefix and leave it blank, it shows up fine. Is there some setting to have all the contacts show up or is it a bug? Is it happening for others too?

2. On the Windows phone, I had a reminder application which showed a list of all reminders. I could set the reminder to repeat after any number of days/weeks/years. However, in the Android Calendar, when I set an event, I am unable to set the number of days/weeks/months/years it has to repeat. For example, I need an event to repeat every 365 days (calendar with no leap day) but I cannot set it on my phone or in GMail. Also, when the alarm goes off, I would like to be reminded again after a day or a few hours or a few minutes until I dismiss the notification so I can have the remidner go off a few days before the event as a reminder. I don't know if that is possible too. I looked at a couple of apps from the Play Store but could not find one which does everything. Anyone know of a trick to get this to work?

Update: DGT GTD & To-Do List with its recent updates now does what I need. Thanks to the author for adding the features.

3. When I check my gmail in the web browser, I am unable to delete the mails. I touch the trash icon but it stays highlighted but does not delete the mail. Is that a bug or am I again doing something wrong? I have different gmail accounts that I would like to check on the phone without transferring contacts and calendar entries.

Update: Looks like a bug in the stock web browser. GMail works as expected in Chrome browser

4. Is there a clear writeup of how the calendar and contacts sync between gmail and the phone? I had transferred all my contacts from my Windows mobile phone to gmail and they showed up on my S3 when I set up the gmail account. However, they would not transfer to my phone. I had to export the contacts to a file on my phone and then import the contacts into my phone. Maybe I do not need the contacts to reside on the phone? I was worried that if I was in an area with poor or no signal reception, then I may not be able to view the contacts if they were only on my gmail account and not on the phone.

4a. Similarly, I would like to know how the calendar entries from gmail can be pulled on to the phone.

Thanks in advance for your help and patience in reading the above! I have a lot to learn but hope I can get my phone to work the way I would enjoy. If you can suggest any resource for reading other than XDA and Android Central, that would be great too.

At I/O they said the tablet takes about 3 hours to charge from 0-100% but it may be faster. Whenever I get the 15% alert I throw it on the charger for about an hour and it's past 50%
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CasualStarlord:
charge times will vary depending on the charger as well, best charge time will occur from the wall charger that came with it, USB trickle charge will take a month of sundays :laugh:

that is of course unless you have a magical USB controller that outputs 2A from each port (highly unlikely)
[Nexus 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] peeturr:
I wonder if its something wrong with my battery. Been on charger for more than three hours and nowhere near 100%. It was at maybe 48%. Drainage seems reasonable..its just the charge seems rather long to reach full charge. This is all from using the stock charger too...

Yeah I'm with the rest, mine's in the 2.5 - 3.5 range. But as stated, which charger you use makes a huge difference. Charging off the computer (USB to PC) is waaaay slow. Using the OEM wall-charger is what should give you 2.5 - 3.5.

Don't quote but I don't think they will ban your IMEI if you bought and paid for it with a contract,you can think the Early Termination fee as the subsidized price on your device. Most of time when T-Mobile ban devicse are those that are on equipment installment plans that people haven't fully paid off the phone yet.

Since you're on a classic plan you should be fine. If you were on a value plan with a payment arrangements on the phone then probably not so much.

Hi everybody,

UPDATE

I have been using the theme for the while and I love it. I made few minor changes to the theme:

- battery icon replaced with gauge

- changed reboot icon

- changed keypad icons in phone and contacts apks.

With a kind permission from Kalagas, I offer my modified theme based on his newest version 6.2 mixed theme for download. Screenshots are under original screenshots from Kalagas theme. The changes are minor and all credit still goes to Kalagas who spent countless hours creating those icons. If you like the theme, please support his development effort by contributing.

UPDATE 20/09/2012

For those who are interested here are same modifications I presented with version 6.2 applied to version 8.1 of Kalagas mixed theme.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/76651287/Kalagas_Mixed_Theme_ICS-JB_modified_v8.1_r1.zip

END OF UPDATE 20/09/2012

It is presented in I9300 forum as a flash-able zip file, so I guess that many people are afraid to use it, because they think it would brick their device. It is not true for this theme. It is done in such way, that it just replaces resources in your binaries, doesn't replace actual apk and jar files and also crates a backup of original files, in a case you want to roll it back. I really like the theme, so I wanted to share my experience with others, allowing more people to enjoy it.

[AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III] robsonr:
As Kalagas pointed out is down to support of 1% battery increments. I had same issue with KyanROM which is set at 15% increments. Best way to find out is to set display to show numerical value and to watch both. You will shortly learn as battery discharges what increments your ROM uses.

I can say that WanamLite uses 1% increments for sure.
