1. What do you mean by you "cannot use the phone"?
2. Are you using the original Samsung charger?
Swyped from my Samsung Galaxy SII
I cannot unlock my phone (sliding to unlock has no effect) while it's charging.
I don't use the original samsung charger

Then use the original Samsung charger.
Other chargers gives higher charging current thereby making the touchscreen unusable while charging

Its because the non-oem cable or wall plug. Get a different cable and try again. If it works, it was infect the cable. If not then plug it into ur PC/laptop with the new wire, if it works properly it was the wall plug.
Highly recommend getting a OEM or descent charger.

Well. I guess he posted as I was typing so I didn't not see. And yes very well explained. But I didnt see u trying to explain/help, instead ur knocking my comment. No offense BTW, I don't mean that as an insult in any way just saying. And knowing exact problem never hurts. So instead of original $15 Samsung charger maybe he/she can get away with A $3 cable. Never know..

So I noticed that my phone is not charging while plugged into the USB in my car. Tried using mobile search which is useless. Also noticed if I wiggle the port it sometimes grabs the charge. Just need to know if I have to put back to stock and turn in for warranty. Kinda live off my phone, I drive for a living so I need it working right.

Does your charger work in a wall socket? If it has the same problems, it's the charger. Try buying a new one to see if it works like that. But I can't think of anything on the spot while you're driving.
Also, you shouldn't be using you're phone while driving. D:

Wiggle the port on the car side? Bad car charger/cable.
Wiggle the port on the phone side, bad USB port/cable.
How clean is the socket in your car? Often times they are located in ash trays or near cup holders and get filled with spooge, try cleaning the female part of the car charger and see if you get a more consistent charge? Since your not complaining about not being able to charge at home, your USB socket I assume is fine, I'd bet it's either the cable or the cars receptacle (either dirty or faulty)

Thx for the help I think its the port on the phone . Seems like I'll be having a fun day at the phone store lol btw I drive limos so plenty of down time just no terminal to be had

Even the full site's search function isn't exactly user friendly. It's very powerful, but you have to already know how to use it.

I would say if someone has common sense and any idea how to navigate a forum it should be a breeze. Unfortunately most people are too lazy and want answers naaaooooowww.

I assume it is the same as an MHL connector. My questions are 1) Does it also charge your phone so it doesn't die if you're trying to watch a movie on an HDTV and 2) For the following product linked below, what is that small connector for that's next to the part that plugs into the back of your TV? I see that the other end of it plugs into your phone but can't figure out what the 3rd connector is for.

Wot ever you do don't buy one of them cables you've put a link to.I already brought the exact same of eBay.and trust me they don't work with Samsung galaxy s3.the only ones the work are genuine Samsung.because the genuine had 19 pins in cable and the one has like 16 or some thing like that.but trust me don't buy it

The HTC micro usb cable is quite a bit longer than the one I got from Samsung so i'm planning on using that one instead of the samsung one. Of course with the correct adapter from Samsung!
Any reason that should cause problems?

It should be absolutely fine as it is either the adapter or phone itself that controls the current.

I have such cable and it doesn't work too well. It disconnects itself quickly and doesn't charge properly. But danger: no. Try it and if it works it's ok.

It should just work fine and relatively safe. However, I bought some cheap cables on eBay and it can't charge at all!! Transfering of data is no problem but charging is a problem. I dont know why but I assume its just some poor quality cables.

There wont be any problem.. i have been using my old htc cable too cos its longer..lol... on both my note and s3.. so no problems at all.

I tried a cheap USB cable that works fine as a data cable and can handle 2.0 speeds but used on S3 and after 8 hours only gave around a 30% charge because looks like the cheap cable must not have been able to handle the 1000mah current.
I use my old HTC cable and adapter to charge my sgs3 works fine. Got a cheap extended cable to use with my original Samsung desktop dock, but that takes ages to charge my phone.

Sorry if this has been covered already but have a question about powering a s3 from external power source
If i have a regulated power supply of 3.8 volts could this be done?
Have seen a similar thing done here to older phone just wondering if anybody did this before?
My reason for doing it is watching movies via host usb drains too much power and no way to charge and usb at same time.
Any thoughts on this being possible...???

Proof? Without proof no one is going to believe you.
Will do, I don't have another device to take the picture so I'll be using the mirror for my phone I found a old 3DS and remembered that it can record videos (sorry for the bad quality though and the mic is broke so there is no sound) and a different power source called the PocketJuice (http://tzumi.com/manuals/Solo2000mAh.pdf) which supplies a bit more power than a USB port, but just for portability sakes... I'll then edit my thread this post to tell you I've posted it... [right now the PocketJuice is charging/I decided to use clear tape to prove that my phone is connected by wires to prevent any more skeptical assumptions and the blue usb cord I'm using is from a Intel Play Digital Movie Creator that wasn't getting any use so I decided to take it's usb cord... (http://www.intel.com/content/dam/ww...2001-vol05-iss-4-intel-technology-journal.pdf on page 49 for pdf) ]

Are you talking about the USB cable? I lost my original S3 cable, hence I am using my old HTC Desire cable now. Didn't see any difference yet.

Generic. The samsung cable is unstable, therefore often charges too slow due to usb charger stability detection.

No brand. Generic. Bought a couple from a Market stall.
Multiple cables .
original cable use if Odin problems is old advice .

Well, I guess, those extra pins won't make a difference, coz the slot in ur S3 may have the same no of contact points as there are pins in original S3 cable..!
I use a cheap no brand one when I'm at work and the Samsung cable at home. No differences at all.
