Some strange stuff going on

I got a message on my cellphone "the software does not exist on your phone to allow it to connect with your phone. You need .. XP with Windows media player ..." I don't remember the exact words". I'm using W7

Then when I unplugged my phone W7 said drivers are being installed and then said successfully installed. I plugged the phone in and it was recognized.

I opened Samsung GS3 Int ToolKit but it didn't show a serial at the top. I attempted to do a back up of all programs but gave up after a message, "waiting for ADB mode" appeared on the screen for over an hour. My phone isn't rooted; is that why?

The phone is no longer being recognize :(

But the box opened for a few seconds asking me what I wanted to do with the phone. View contents etc.

After a long year with my iPhone, I am finally due for an upgrade and I want the S3. I have always been an Android user, but decided to see what iOS was all about. I wasn't impressed even a little bit, so I bought a Transformer Prime to get my Android fix until I was due for an upgrade. The ONLY thing I like about the iPhone, is the connectivity in all my vehicles. They all have iPod connections , which makes life much easier for charging and playing music in the car through one cable. Has anyone found a solution for playing music and charging in a car with the S3 and vehicles equipped with iPod connections? Are there any adapters to get the S3 to work with an iPod adapter?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rfmodeler:
I'm assuming you dont have Bluetooth connectivity on your stereo.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lennie paz:
Unfortunately, no. There are some Bluetooth adapters available that plug into the 30 pin iPod connector. I'm wondering if that would work, or maybe they just work on docks?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
No, there are no adapters, i makes sure of that. I hate that company!

This is one of those things in life that just doesn't make sense. Why all these manufacturers cater to i is beyond me, android outsells i 4 to 1. Try to find an android dock at your local electronics supplier, you may find 1 out of 20 i docks.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] restinbeast:
As far as battery goes, I would just embrace the fact that you will now have a removable battery and extra batteries are cheap as hell.

So then if you have an aux cable you'd be golden. I believe there are also bluetooth to Aux connectors that work really well, but I do not think I've heard of a iPhone (proprietary POS) adapter.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] ULEWZ:
I use the aux cable directly to my phone, but this will cause a bluetooth earpiece to not function. I also have the aux bluetooth adapter, but the bass does not come through.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lennie paz:
That will only solve my charging. I need to play the music through the iPod cable because my vehicles don't have an aux input either.

I do have to say, I was impressed by their iPad3. The display on it is ridiculous. I got it for like 400 bucks and played with it for a while. I eventually got defeated by the LACK of customization and sold it to my mother so she would buy me my SIII lol.

Does it have a tape player?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shangrila500:
Is the radio in your vehicle stock or aftermarket? On some radios, mainly aftermarket but there are a few stock, there are unused input ports on the back and all you would have to dowas find the corresponding cord plug it in the back of your radio and run to how and where you wanted it. On my radio, aftermarket, it actually has a USB type A female end so I plug whatever I want into it and it charges the phone while playing my music, although the easiest way to access the music is to enable UMS so you can go through the files until you find the one you want. Yours may not have this but there.are always ways around it, for instance if the iPhone cable is attached to the radio on the back side it could be as easy as unplugging it and plugging a micro USB in or it could be a little tougher meaning you would have to take the metal guard off of the radio and find out where the iPhone cable ran. If it runs to the radios motherboard and is soldered directly on then you could take a few pics so you will remember the correct wire placement, desolder the wires which should be fairly easy, strip the full size USB end off or your micro USB cable separate the wires and if the colors matched up to the iPhone wire colors solder in place and have fun, if the colors don't match then you would have to test and find out which wire is what and then solder then accordingly. If you decided to go the soldering route then the best thing to do would be to get a USB cable with a full size type A female port strip the opposite end off, attach, and then plug your S3 cable into the female end. That way you could plug whatever you wanted into it instead of just having a micro USB end.

If you've never soldered before but want to try to change the cables out practice for 2 or 3 weeks or until you know exactly what you're doing. Don't start on the radio right away or you will burn it up. Alternatively you could just buy an aftermarket radio like mine, Kenwood DNX-6990HD, and install it yourself or pay someone 100-200 dollars to install it.

The car I am most concerned with, is my Lexus. It has a factory stereo with Nav. Currently, I am using this to connect the iPhone in the Lexus:

http://www.vaistech.com/products/vml_products.php
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shangrila500:
Where exactly is that located it your car. The way it looks to me is that seeing as how it has the USB port on it you should be able to plug your cord in and plug the phone and be good to go. I haven't worked with that many Lexus' and the ones I did work with were people wanting aftermarket stereos because the higher end ones look and function better than their stock radios. If it did charge your iPhone it should charge the GS3, should being the key word. Those type of added functionality boxes have always caused problems for me.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lennie paz:
It's in my glove box. I tried to hook up my son's Incredible 2 through the USB. It charged the Incredible, but it couldn't find any music on his phone. Take a look at the manual for the unit in my Lexus. I wonder if I format the sd card the way they recommend, and then put his phone in Mass Storage Mode, if it would then find the music on his phone.

http://www.vaistech.com/manuals/Manual_VML_PR.pdf
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shangrila500:
After searching for a few minutes I found this:

http://www.vaistech.com/forums/showthread.php?p=6695

So I'm unsure if it would charge and play, it should but I would have to play with tthe system before I could be sure. I would say just test it on another smartphone that uses micro usb and see if it pulls up and charges. That doesn't necessarily mean the GS3 will, the only way to be sure would be to test it out and see. The only other options I see that would give you full integration would be to either chafe radios, which I assume you don't want to do, or to buy what was linked in that forum post. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful, a lot of that stuff is hit or miss.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lennie paz:
Haha, yeah, that was my post in the Vais forums. They want me to buy that Android unit for $600. This looks like it would work:

http://www.cablejive.com/products/dockBossplus.html
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shangrila500:
Its possible that if you format it to fat32 and put it in UMS mode that it will. That is the way I do it. On my RAZR and the GS3 if I just plug it in to my radio it pulls up all of my files and clumps them all together and refuses to shoe file names. When I put it in UMS it shows the folders and I can go through and select which folder or song I want to play.

If it is like mine in the way it reads storage devices then it should pick it up in UMS.

---------- Post added at 03:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:22 PM ----------

Yes it does, I saw that earlier. I just like using one plug for mine and the other downside to that is that Bluetooth won't work when there is a plug in the audio jack. At least it won't for me....
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lennie paz:
Now that I think about it, the Incredible wasn't even showing up as connected. The way the unit works in my Lexus, is when I plug in an iDevice, I have to press the CD button on the stereo. Then the device shows up as CD 3. When I plug in the Incredible, nothing shows up on CD 3. There must be some type of file or something that is on an iDevice that makes it recognized by the unit in the Lexus.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shangrila500:
Its possible that there is a filter. Some stereos I've dealt with refuse to read an Android device unless they're mounted in UMS mode too. It wouldn't hurt to try that. It should pull up as a jump drive or storage device in UMS so there's a possibility that it'd work. It wouldn't surprise me if they did put a filter in just to make more money though.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] lennie paz:
People on the Vais forums are reporting that this works. It won't charge the phone, but it supposedly plays music. Maybe the 30 pin iPod connector is the key to getting a device recognized?

http://www.ipromarket.com/iwave-bluetooth-music-receiver-for-iphone-ipad_p1012cec.html
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shangrila500:
I could definitely see that working. How well I don't know but it'd be good enough to listen to your music for sure. They may have the iPhone port on the board soldered differently of it may just be the "software" of the device itself. You can't really lose trying it. I don't know if you know or not but in my experience music played over Bluetooth loses a bit of quality. It isn't noticeable to most but I'm an audiophile and unnoticed it quite a bit. But that looks like a better solution than paying 600. I would still try UMS mode first but if that didn't work then I would buy the Bluetooth adapter.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] jjstrat3:
This seemed like the place to ask this: I'm a new Galaxy S3 owner coming from an iPhone 4S, and I was wondering if anyone knew of any aux input adaptors you can wire into a car stereo to plug into a S3's micro usb port?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] rfmodeler:
I would try this. UMS mode is common currency for stereos with USB connections. There is a thread around here about how to enable UMS mode, too bad ICS and JB don't natively support this anymore.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] leviathan8890:
So I just did a full wipe and flashed ParanoidAndroid Build 11 from stock on my G2x today. Everything is smooth and running fine. But when I plugged my phone into the computer, as soon as I switched connection to "Mass Storage", it automatically rebooted. As long as I have the phone plugged into the usb port, and have it on "Mass storage", the phone would reboot over and over again. The other two options, MTP and Camera (PTP) does not trigger reboot, but then my computer wouldn't recognize the phone either.

Any helper on this one?

Thanks in advance :)

I can't post to the dev forum, so maybe someone over here can help:

I tried the PA ROM, because I really love the hybrid mode. The ROM has worked fine and looks great, but whatever version I flash, the mobile network, both data and phone, simply doesn't work.

It briefly connects to my provider (drei.at) and immediately disconnects, no matter whether I have data connection enabled or not.

Have tried this with all available versions of PA and did the usual routine: wipe, format system, wipe data. I even went totally back to a stock ROM, tried various modems, the current one being XXDLH9, which works just fine on Cr@zy 0.6 ROM.

Had the same problem with Omega, FoxHound, and god knows what other ROMs I tried. No matter what, the only JB ROM actually working is Cr@zy 0.6, that's it.

Is this a known phenomenon or have I overlooked something obvious?

The phone used to be a branded and simlocked Austrian T-Mobile, but ever since it has been debranded and SIM unlocked.

Any ideas?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alchemist83:
All i can suggest is your apn settings?

Can try Offline SIM APN Database (get on Google Play) to insert the correct apn settings.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DF5JT:
Thank you for the suggestion. The APN settings on a fresh install, all wiped, are correct and the same as in a working setup.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JJEgan:

Suggest next step is factory reset ..

Step after that is to install an official stock rom .

Did a factory reset, totally clean install with everything wiped.

Also, did a clean wipe and installed official stock ROM. Lost root, started from scratch and still didn't work.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DF5JT:
No, that's not what I said. Stock ROMs work just fine; I actually just flashed the latest leak (DLI5) and had no problems with the network. The problem hasn't changed, so it's what I wrote in the OP: Only JB to work ist latest leak and Cr@zy 0.6. All others can be installed but have not network connection other than WiFi.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Beatsleigher:
Have you tried flashing a new baseband? i had the same problem, when flashing the franco. Kernel..

EDIT: If it helps, I speak/write fluent german :D ('Cause I live in germany ^^)
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DF5JT:
Thanks for trying to help.

Yes, I have been playing around with all kinds of basebands, trying to flash modems etc. but that does not seem to be the reason for it. I have had different modems working and the very same modems simply did not work with PA at all. Best example ist yesterday's leak DLI5 which I flashed and had a virgin like system working just fine with my network. I then flashed the PA ROM, which then had the same baseband as the latest stock ROM, but, alas, same story: No network.

The weird thing is the brief connect it always shows in the status bar. It lasts roughly 4-5 seconds and then disconnects again, only showing the empty network status display.

It really sucks, because I find the idea of hybrid ROMs really appealing, in fact, this seems to me as a truly superior way of making use of the 720p display.

Need to try logcat next to see whether the connect/disconnect somehow can be monitored from there. Will report on that.
