[Q] Samsung Galaxy S III - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

I recently got an s3 by sprint. I can not take picture while I am on the phone is that something that sprint S3 do or do I have a defective phone? I have a friend who has one with att and she can take picture while she is on the phone. I just got the phone so I dont know anything about this and I am new so can someone help me please.

whilst on the call, hit your home key and launch the camera, should let you take a picture then.

is it software?
It might be because of your rom.

I'd get it exchanged asap.
the problems is this is not my phone originally i bought it off someone it work fine till recently (about a week).
Ibring it to Bell, Bell refused to service it they need the original receipt. but it's clearly a Bell branded phone and it just release not long go??
Then i contacted Samsung Canada, they too told me that the need the receipt! the supervisor even told me if i have it a day and no receipt they will not honor the warranty.
Does this making any sense at all to you guys? anyhow, I canceled Bell service and also did email to Samsung Canada and will email Samsung in Korea as well when my friend free this coming up week, he is korean
anyhow, thanks for your help
im so excited before and now super pissed and sad!!

[Q] Simcard not recognizing

Hi All,
I have samsung Galaxy S2 AT&T one (SGH i777). I have been using with proper care so far now. One day suddenly my power button stopped working. As it was out of warranty , I went to local phone repair shop in San Jose, CA, USA(Which has good ratings on yelp). They fixed the problem. But at the same time my simcard was not recognizing at that moment. So I thought may be i have to take new sim. So I visited AT&T store. They did software data reset and tried with new simcard. Still my phone always shows "Please insert simcard" and at range position it shows circle with one line it.
Has anybody experienced this problem ? Will the rooting of my phone help in this case ? Please advice me . Phone is in excellent condition and as it was my first android device I dont want to throw it .
I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Gaurav
Sounds like a hardware problem. Was this an issue prior to the repair of the power button?

[Q] Quality of Samsung Support ?

Hi Peeps.
Was wondering about how people here have gotten on with having to send their beloved S3 home for warranty support. Are they generally quick with repairs and returning the phones to you ?
I have just found the need to return mine as I am suffering a sudden issue with dead / stuck pixels, and Samsung have asked me to send it in. As this is the only phone I own that has a micro-sim and those adaptor things don't fit my old HTC Desire, I will be without my main phone for God knows how long !!
Has anybody in the UK had to return theirs, and if so, how long did you have to go on without ?
Thanks,
Dave.

[Q] Double the problem.Help anyone?

Hello everyone,
I though I was better with all of this, but I am not, and I need your help.
I got two Galaxy s4 form Verizon. One for me and my gf.
She was going away to Europe for vacation and I was trying to be clever guy and unlock sim lock for her. So she could use it over seas..
Well after talking with Verizon it turn out that phone is unlock and ready to got, so I put Tmobile card inside and it work but had that notification that it was non Verizon sim and it only took calls. busted...
So I try to root it...
or main plan was to make this phone to be like non Verizon phone, so it would look like is running with out all that Verizon stuff just pure android.
so I think I succeed with rooting but it was still Verizon phone. I got couple more files that I put in on my phone thru Odin.
And now
that galaxy would not start.
you power it on goes to that Samsung sine at beginning with "lock" icon that is open, with sine "custom" and it will not go any further...
I can put it to download mode, but idk what to put in to it true odin.
and when I go to recovery mode it goes to "team win recovery project v2.5.0.2", but idk what to do in there plus I tried to reset it couple of times...
so I am beat and no idea what I am doing and I am asking for help...
I been with that situation over two weeks now... and I had to go back to my s3...
she took my (second one) SG4 with her because we thought that maybe she will get it to work with non americans companies like Verizon said but she cant even text on it because she cant put any ne Access Point Names... but that's other problem... and some other time...
The one I am stuck with is main one...
Can any one help bring this phone back to live?
Either to Verizon version or if possible to Verizon stock free just pure android?
either Way I will be very grateful for help..
Thanks for your time

Black Spot on Screen Samsung S6 Edge

Hello,
I have a samsung S6 edge phone. From past few days i am seeing a black spot under the screen. can someone help me how to fix this. I bought this phone 5 months ago from AT&T store. ATT is mentioning that they will exchange my phone with warranty claim but will exchange it with a refurbished phone.
When i called Samsung they mentioned me that i have to send the phone to them. They will do basic troubleshooting. if they can fix it they will if not they will replace the phone ( samsung mentioned they will replace with brand new phone but I doubt it as its been 5 months since i bought this phone)
I cannot send phone to samsung as i cannot end up having no phone with me for 14 days. I dont want refurbished phone either as its been only 5 months since i took this phone
can anyone help me here and suggest me a good way to fix it or get a new replacement phone
As i am new user i cant post images. please let me know how can i post images

Upload them to a picture hosting/sharing site and put the link in the post...
As for your problem, I'd rather take the replacement from Samsung into account instead of ending up with a refurbished phone...even if that means you won't have it for 2 weeks. Borrow a phone from someone meanwhile
Sent from nowhere over the air...
Well without the pic we can not help you I do hope some one here can help you.
I sent the phone to samsung support and they have replaced the screen and fixed the issue. thanks everyone for helping me
