ok so i lost the earphones that came with my s3 and need new ones. i was looking at the urbeats and the beats tour. should i get either of those or should i just buy the same ones that came with the phone? the beats are $50-$60 on ebay and the samsungs are from $7-$15 on ebay aswell. i already have mods on my phone like beats, dolby, xloud, and srs. so im wondering if i get the samsung if they will be like the beats with the mods.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ahlexkim:
You could always just buy the same ones

They're pretty cheap

$6-$10
[Galaxy S III Accessories] fcortes626:
yea thats what i was thinking. they have the mic and bass and voice cencellation just like the urbeats and with the mods it should sound good. im just going to buy those. thanks:good:
[Galaxy S III Accessories] zoppp:
Try the JVC Xtreme Xplosion Earbuds. I've got a pair of them and I've been pretty satisfied with them. I've got an irregular ear and regular Earbuds and in ears never really worked for me, these stay in my ear with no problems and are very comfortable. The bass is very good almost comparable to my Sony XB-500 (Blow beats studio out of the water.... Just saying) the mids and highs are Allright, they get better as you burn in the ear buds. I think they are really good and I got mine for like $20 shipped.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] fcortes626:
i got my earphones the other day and i just tried them today and i have to say they suck. they were supposed to be samsung genuine and i cant hear the bass. i compared them to my brothers samsung oem earphones and his sound way better.:(

dont know if it has anything to do with it saying for samsung galaxy blaze 4g. but they look the same as the ones for the s3.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] elementaldragon:
I personally would avoid Beats like the plague. Yea... they supposedly have nice sound to them (Never had a pair close enough to my head to hear them)... but i wouldn't buy any product made by Monster. Yes... the A/V cable company. The same one that apparently has the ca-hone's to sell people a gold-plated fiber optic audio cable with a straight face.

I'd either go with genuine Samsung earbuds if you liked the way they sounded, or i'd say Sennheiser.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] bordikun:
Sennheiser IE80 FTW! ;)

If you don't mind not having a mic, the Sony mdrex310lps are phenomenal and about 70 bucks
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rayray27:
Are there any regular ear buds (I don't like IEMs) with a mic (that actually works for calls lol) that work for the S3? Volume control would be nice too but I think that's asking too much at this point :D In a nutshell I'm looking for a headset similar to that of the iPhones but one that is functional with the S3.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Digitalthug:
You still using wired headsets come on man the Galaxy 3 support apt-X for CD quality Bluetooth stereo sound. If I were you I would invest the money in Jay birds they have a new 1 call Jay bird sprint phenomenal sound quality. Phone call quality is okay, but for media ohh my God these are the best I've ever used!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] khoikn:
I'd stay away from Beats.

Overpriced, and the sound quality isn't terribly amazing. You pay for the branding essentially.

A good pair of Sennheiser's or the Klipsch s4as will do so much better.

Those are my headphones for music.

Otherwise, I have a couple OEM Samsung's for calls and such, they are nice for the price point. $5-10 on Amazon/eBay.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] setspeed:
I bought these ME Electronics M11+ recently, and for the price they really are excellent:

Edit: the M11P+ has a mic.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] fcortes626:
i contacted the seller and he said he sent me some new ones that he tested out before he shipped htem and were working. i also noticed my brothers were like an inch longer. anyhow i went with the s3 oem. i got a $400 ticket and $380 for traffic school so i need to start saving up money to pay it so no beats or any other expensive accessories for now lol
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Fille84:
Monster turbine is the best ive tried
[Galaxy S III Accessories] elementaldragon:
Beats = Monster. Same deal. You're paying for branding. Could probably get a comparable Sennheiser for far less than... what are they... $180?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] ayeitschris:
Earpods.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] aveda6:
I would agree that Beats are not worth the expense. My son has had a pair of in-ear beats and they have not held up at all. I am hopeful that with Beats officially separating from Monster that the quality and value will start to head in the right direction.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] fcortes626:
yup theres mixed reviews of the beats but they didnt really convince me.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Fille84:
No no, The Turbines has a much clearer sound than the Beats that ive tried.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rlatjs17:
I really don't get people who say stay away from beats. I have one myself and I do think they're a little overprice for the sound quality but, I think they are the best looking headphones. I don't want to be walking around with some retarded looking headphones on my head. Its all about preference. Just go to your nearest bestbuy try out all the headphones and see which you like the best. I have the Studio's for anybody wondering about em. Here's a pic. And yes you can hate me for it

Hippo VB - http://jaben.net/shopping2/Hippo_VB.html

I know I know, weird brand and stuff, but these are AMAZING...

The sub-bass is incredible (better then my $400 Ultrasone pro900 full size headphones, which are known for their awesome bass lol). They will blow beats out of the water, from the solo HD to the Studio's. Actually, as far as sub bass go, they blow everything out of the water. Anything. :victory:

If you don't believe me, look up the thread on Head-Fi. :)
[Galaxy S III Accessories] elementaldragon:
I'm sorry.... but wow. If you buy a $300 set of headphones with what YOU even admit is sound quality that doesn't match the price, simply because the headphones LOOK good.... you must have a lot of money to blow on crap. I'd rather have a better sounding set of headphones (like a nice set of Sennheisers) even if they don't look all shiny and RED (tacky).... also because i'd be less likely to be mugged for them.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] rlatjs17:
The sound quality is good enough for me. Any better I won't be able to tell the difference anyway and I dont need anything better. If you didn't know they have colors other than red. I'm just a big fan of red. Red sneakers, red hats, etc etc. If you wanna hate for me wanting to look good while having decent sound then go ahead and hate. Haters gunna hate. Also, if you live in an area where your going to get mugged for a pair of beats I think you should consider moving to a decent neighborhood where you won't get robbed for headphones.. Pce

Edit: Reason for my rant is no need to push people away from different choices. You buy what you want to buy. Some people prefer looks over performance. Kind of like spending money on a car. Either you go for stance or performance.

[Galaxy S III Accessories] elementaldragon:
I actually live in a nice neighborhood. FAR from a city. I work near a city, however.

I'm just saying that it's odd to be talking to someone who's looking for good sound quality, and recommending Beats. If you seem to be able to easily admit that they're overpriced for how they sound... why would you recommend them personally? It's like someone *****ing to people about how horrible fast food is, and you realize that the very same person goes to McDonalds 3-4 times a week for lunch.

Sennheisers may not be the most colorful, but i'd rather pay probably close to $100 less for the same or better sound quality for the sole fact that they're not both marketed by a rapper and sold by a company that also overcharges for A/V cables.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznsniper:
Hi guys, was wondering if maybe airview could be ported to the Galaxy Note 1? Or maybe our hardware isn't powerful enough to support it?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
Is this the feature on the note 2,where you can have multiple apps open alongside each other? If so, it's possible that it will be included in the official jb update. It's a Touchwizz dependant feature so well never get the sources for it and it's not just a case of copying an app, you need the whole Touchwiz framework.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whiskeyjack4855:


Airview os hardware related so no it can't be used on the note
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SpyderTracks:
If it's air view as in apple, then no as above poster said, but there are plenty of streaming alternatives.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Whiskeyjack4855:
Airview is a feature where you can hover your spen above the screen and without touching the screen do specific tasks!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznsniper:
Yup, Whiskeyjack is right. The thing is, when I was on stock 4.0.4, there is a setting on your phone to allow a dot cursor whenever you use your pen. This feature is also avaliable for CM9,10. However with airview, its just basically placing your pen over with a hover, then the picture or the video will be shown in a small window. So the hover technology is already there but whether the the pop up overlay is possible on our notes or if it uses to much cpu power.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gam3r20:
Im not a modder But I think its possible .. if you use (Boat Browser) try to move the s-pen over any link but dont touch the screen .. and see what happen
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nokiamodeln91:
i know that... its the websites with the menus which when on pc hovering the mouse opens the menus right?. it works will with the android browser using the spen.. but there are more features in note too.. like the video timeline, and gallery preview using the spen hover feature which is not there in note 1
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] emmanuel lazar:
Its software related because i am able to use airview on google chrome browser of my galaxy note 1 n7000
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] qazibasit:
Air view is still there on our note. But there is no implementation of it in ics. So we have to wait for the update, it will again be the part of touchwiz not a standalone app. I can use it on my routers setting page.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fearkillerr:

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobMoore1971:
Okay, I probably did this in the wrong order ... however I have installed Androxide 3.1.1 [JB] ROM on my phone. The EVO was deactivated when I did this, however I decided to activate the EVO and start using it as my every day phone. The activation went good, except when the Sprint rep asked me to go into system settings to update the PRL, there was no system update. Is this something that can be updated after the ROM has been flashed???

There may be a way, but I've always had to flash a sense rom to update prl and data profile.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RobMoore1971:
Thanks! I called back and talked to a second rep who passed me on to their tech department. The Tech just walked through the menus, not finding the same things the 1st and 2nd rep tried to find. Then had me put a couple of codes into the phone, which did nothing. He was then stumped. So I told him, I guess I need to find a stock rom and call back ... he agreed. :)

Love It!!!

Thanks again ... have a great night.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Magnum_Enforcer:
You don't have to be on a stock ROM. You only need to be running a Sense ROM that allows you to upgrade your profile and PRL. You can't do that on a AOSP ROM.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] myst3ry23:
Hi everyone, I am new here but not new to rooting phones. I've followed the instructions for installing |ROM| Jedi Mind Trick |V9| 9|19 completely and thoroughly and I've waited the 10 mins (sometimes more) before I rebooted the phone. Every time after the reboot, I start messing with the phone and checking out the features, my capacitive buttons just completely stop working, they are unresponsive and they don't even light up. Also, the lockscreen doesn't work unless I press the power button once and then I can go into the phone and everything else is working except for the capacitive buttons. So that leaves me stuck in the last app that I was in and I cannot go back home since the capacitive buttons are functioning.

I have tried reflashing the ROM 3 times and the same exact thing happened each time. I also tried rebooting the phone and turning the phone completely off and the capacitive buttons will function only for about a minute and then completely stop working again. I was wondering if someone knows how to fix this or if anyone was experiencing the same issue and found a way to fix it. Please let me know, I'm not sure what I did wrong for this happen since the ROM seems to be working for everyone else.

[Windows 8 General] Locklear308:
Basically. I'm only switching to W8 as long as I can get rid of that crappy start screen, add a start button, boot straight to the desktop so I can actually get stuff done quickly like I have for the...past 10 years :P

I've seen that you can add a start button, but is there anyway to remove any of the other crap?

Honestly I feel like I am better just using W7 till they get it right (hopefully) with W9. Or whatever they'll call it. But, I've heard it is faster.

[Windows 8 General] rstat1:
Never quite understood the point of those apps. Windows 8 already has all of things that supposedly adds, so why use an app that needless duplicates those things?
[Windows 8 General] JihadSquad:
Some people can't stand the new visual layout (it looks like the app drawer of the SGS default launcher - app icon with a random background color). Also it is fullscreen.
[Windows 8 General] lumpaywk:
If you need to see the desktop you could dual screen then its only on 1 so technically half screen lol.

This said I don't get the op about getting things done faster! the new start screen smashes the old on speed. Also he said about getting to the desktop on login I don't get why its so hard to press enter and why do they say it makes it slower when it logs in more that 4times faster then 7 so even with the single button press your in and on the desktop (don't know why cos you will have to launch a program so unless you like looking at your wallpaper this is a pointless pathetic and useless argument) much faster still,

This is typical moaning for the sake of moaning nothing more. I understand saying I don't like the look etc but to say its slower or less productive is just wrong! Why is clicking a small icon on your desktop any faster then clicking a square in the start menu????????

I really want to know as I simply do not get it!!!

You do realize you can customize the start screen layout right even group programs? You do realize you can pin documents as well as programs? you do realize you can just start typing to search? and that you can unpin any clutter then still get to it with a right click? I simply don't understand why anyone in the world thinks that having a start menu with a lng list of programs is in anyway faster then the new start menu.

If you think sticking with windows 7 makes you faster you are kidding yourself its like saying I will stick with a ford focus because its faster then a Ferrari just because you don't like the dash board. If you don't like the look that's fair play but don't try to make out that windows 8 is somehow slower or more clumsy then 7!

---------- Post added at 07:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:17 AM ----------

Not to mention that if you don't install metro apps the only thing that's changed is the start screen, Something used for starting programs and does much faster then a list that you should see for about 1% of the time unless your really unorganized and just leave software machine gunned all over it. You can even name your groups, i challenge anyone to load windows 7 on identical hardware and beat me at getting into a program or multiple programs and documents with me on 8, cos if you did you will get smoked.

Actually naff it i have a pc to rebuild today i will do a video to prove it!
[Windows 8 General] JihadSquad:
Yeah, I am pretty sure most people who complain about it have never tried it (just watched a video) or tried it but not for long enough. It takes a little learning, but then it is much faster than Windows 7 for getting most things done.
[Windows 8 General] arczangel:
move on people! or stick to your current OS.
[Windows 8 General] dazza9075:
it is a shame that FUD spreads so easily, but the bigger shame is that there are so many gullible individuals that take everything they read as gospel without actually understanding what it is they are reading.

Im actually tired of daft comments like the OP here, Win 8 has its issues and yet almost all the Win 8 haters don't list any of them and instead become fixated on things that are not actually wrong or any different then what is with Win 7 just now. I have no problem with constructive criticism and good debate but mindless rants of regurgitated nonsense is tiresome

ive said it once and ill say it again, the biggest obstacle for MS launching Win8 and WP 7/8 isn't how good or bad the OS is, its the stupidity of the general population or more importantly the inability for MS to get its own marketing in gear

in answer to the OPs question, is it possible to avoid metro?

the answer is yes and no, you need to use metro as a start menu which is essentially EXACTLY what it is, then you don't have to use any metro apps. you could use a more inefficient start menu as mentioned above or if you don't want a third party program you can pin a shortcut to your start menu folder on your task bar, clicking on it will open up the "start menu" which doesn't have that much less functionality than the old start menu but is utterly crap compared to the new one :)
[Windows 8 General] lumpaywk:
yep a better argument against windows 8 is the lack of metro on multi monitors. Or how the Server tools will not load AD in 32bit mode meaning i have to run a vm to administer exchange 2003 (only thing i now cant do even vmware is now fixed (veeam needs update but if you dont use it vmware works)).

Again. I like the speed, and new things.

But the layout? Garbage. Change is NOT needed for things to be new. We've had the same layout for 15+ years nearly.

Hell, **** steering wheels. Let's add a small ball you turn with your head. Why not? Don't complain, accept change.

That's basically what some of you are saying.
[Windows 8 General] lumpaywk:
When the current layout of the modern automobile came out it was really unpopular and people said it would never take on.

I don't get why you think the layout is garbage but each to there own. What I see is a way that is much much faster and easier to get to what I need quickly. In the old start menu I had to click all programs find the top folder open that to a sub list then find what I wanted. No its there straight away. That's 4 clicks down to 2 and I can lay it out by whatever means I like not in alphabetical order. For example my machine at work is separated into categories tools, programs, office, documents, personal (games and kindle etc for lunch break), remote desktops and power options. means if I need something fast its right there I can pin documents as well as terminal servers to my start next to my software.

I would really love someone to explain quite how they think a list with sub lists is a better more productive method because I really don't see it.
