Looking for Answers about samsung Galaxy S III?

I am looking to move over to a galaxy S3, but want to make the move to a phone with the maximum avilable capacity, so am avioding the 16gb and 32gb in favour of the 64gb model

When using predictive text there is no option to add custom words ?
I've tried searching through all the settings but I can't seem to find a solution. Maybe its a stock software problem ?
I've also tried using youtube for help on this and come accross atleast one other person with the same problem. We are both in the UK if this helps ?

I will attach a screen shot to try make my problem more clear.

On the SGS1 I know you could click to see your suggested words from the dictionary and there at the bottom of the list would be the button to add a custom word, as you see on the screen shot its not there on the S3 ?

There is a symbol/icon at the top of my phone (like a house on its side with a - sign in the middle) and it's preventing certain aspects of my phone operating. Desperate for help!!

Hi,

I have just downloaded Google Chrome...is there anyway to change the "Internet" icon on the homescreen to either be Chrome, or use Chrome as the browser it opens?

This is with regard to a Galaxy S3

I've just been on holiday and ever since i got back my phone doesn't always automatically connect to my home wifi and is using my 3g data up so quickly. I have to turn my wifi off and back on again as it says it's scanning and never picks it up otherwise.
Can anyone help me?

I purchased my SG3 pre-owned in January - been excellent until yesterday when it was incredibly slow to respond to anything, from unlocking the screen to opening apps like GMAIL, facebook and even the text messaging app.

Eventually it froze on me completely with a black screen and all I could do was remove the battery to bring it back to life.

Since then I've removed some of the most recent apps I've installed but it is still very laggy and slow to respond.

A factory reset is not ideal as I have it set up just how I want it and don;t fancy having to set it all up again.

A quick scoot on Google revealed a number of users with similar issues but no real resolution. One site I found advised that it is down to a chip on the system board and advised running an app will reveal if this chip is faulty. I ran it and it told me the chip was one prone to lock up the phone.

Has anyone else had a problem like this and been able to resolve it?

I'm not sure where I stand with Samsung/warranty claim as I have not had phone from new although I believe it is still within the first years warranty.

Although I can see all of my contacts none of their numbers are visable anymore? They aren't even listed! However, if i view the Favourites menu they are?
Can anyone help me to restore these missing (not viewable) numbers?

My Galaxy S3 has started to alert me everytime I receive junk mail or every time I delete an email without reading it. This was never an issue until I accessed the junk mail folder on my phone. Ever since then I am getting constant notifications of junk. Obviously the only notifications I want are for emails to my inbox. A quick search in google suggests this is an issue for many other people too but the only solution I can find is to delete my email account, set it up again and make sure I don't access the junk folder! Please can somebody help me fix this issue without having to do this?

Recently, as in this week, I received a Galaxy SIII, but I’m facing major issues when trying to sync it with our Microsoft Exchange server. Email, Contacts and tasks sync without an issue, but the S Planner, Calendar is being filled up with duplicate entries – in some cases up to 50 duplicate entries.

I only have the Exchange calendar selected, all other calendars have been unselected and aren’t syncing. Have also tried removing and readding the exchange account numerous times, it is fine for about an hour, then the duplicate entries start flooding in. Just doing a web search this seems to be a common issue but with no real resolution.

It seems to be each time the phone syncs with exchange it enters another duplicate calendar item, it’s as if the phone isn’t saying, whoa there, I already have this in the calendar, I don’t need to know about it again.

Has anyone had the same issue and if so how did you manage to resolve it. I don’t want to purchase another calendar or piece of sync software as this is a very basic function for the phone to support, if it is incapable, then I will have to return the phone, which will be a shame as it is a good phone, it’s just this one item that is letting it down.

Can anyone please explain to me why thisis happening and how to fix it?

On the samsung galaxy s3 keypad (not the keyboard) I need to type #BAL# so how do I do this without cutting and pasting from the kayboard

I own a Samsung Galaxy S3 with the Accuweather widget on the home screen..

In the UK today it is the start of DST so I have just spent all day trying to get the widget to display the correct time...

It keeps saying 1 hour behind..

I have added and removed the widget, activated and deactivated GPS and wireless, and added locations.. on occaions I get the little sun symbol and the time is correct, it then refreshes and it will be wrong...

How do I fix this issue>

I can't use the home screen on my phone due to touchwiz not working, it started off with just showing the message, but now the screen has turned black and the only way I can navigate my way around the phone is by using the side bar. But to use the side bar I have to be on a different screen to the home screen otherwise it will not work.

I have Kies 2.5.3.13033_7 loaded on a Windows 7 64-bit laptop and when I connect my SIII I’m getting “This device is not supported by Kies 2.0” error message. I have uninstalled and reinstalled Kies and I still have the same message. I had no issues connecting before. I’ve searched other forums and it looks as though I’m not the only one having this issue with an SIII – the only suggestion was to reload Kies. Any help would be appreciated.

The past 3 days my samsung has decided to freeze every few minutes. If its not freezing its switching itself off. I've uninstalled any apps I've downloaded recently and thats made no difference. This happens whether I have the wifi on or not. It is currently running on android version 4.1.2 if this helps.

the device is not recognised by my laptop completely, let alone kies. under device manager my phone comes up as 'other devices' and has two 'Qualcomm CDMA Technologies MSM' drivers that are missing. can not find these drivers anywhere!!
