Hello i purchased a used phone i don't have a charger at the time so i cant turn it on. The phone supposedly was a galaxy s3 mini but i watched reviews and the s3 mini did not look like the phone. i had it look rather like the original s3. im wondering why this phone came with a 1800mAh battery and not a 2100 mAh battery can the galaxy use to types of battery's. i need some help guys....can this phone use the 2100 battery because the 1800mAh battery looks wider because. i was about to buy the
Samsung i9300 Galaxy S3 SIII Wall Battery Charger with USB Port.
MODEL: I9300
Battery 1800mAh Date 2012.9.20
Here is all the pictures you guys would need

s3 or a s3 mini mikhale

From what I can say from the video, it looks like a S3 mini. It isn't as vertically long as an S3. Have you tried checking the model number in the settings? There's a possibility that the sticker might be wrongly sticked on. Second, the mah tells you how much charge the battery can hold, how long the battery can last. For my phone, the numbers did not match either. As long as it can fits, assume it can work. Unless the batteries is fake, you shouldn't worry so much. Yes, its safe for you to buy the S3 wall charger. I always mix the chargers for my phones, like using the Tab 2 charger to charge my Note 2. If you're still unsure, you can go to a shop and have a check. See if its the same size as the S3 mini there. There's a chance that it could be those fake china phones.

is there a difference between the S2 & the Skyrocket charger & the note charger ? i noticed that my phone charging faster when using the usb that came with the note more than the one that came with my old skyrocket ? or is it just in my head ? i used both chargers & notice the one that was in the box with the note charging it much faster ?

Recently got an ATT 777 S2. Is there a battery charger (either dock that handles a case, or plug-in) that I can simultaneously charge the phone and a spare battery? Looked around, but seems like all the ones I see for the S2 on Amazon are for the international version.
thanks

I own one of these and it is great. Not all docks are created equal. The fit, finish and function of this one is dead on. Doubt it will play nice with a case though.

You're trying to draw too much current and the S2 charger is current limiting... which will make it noisy as the feed-forward converter is running outside its design limits.

its dangerous for the phone or charger? or its not that big of a deal?
Stop using the S2 charger. It is rated at ~700mA and your S3 is trying to pull 900mA.
Not a great idea.
use the charger that came with the s3
and u will be good to go
i think that if you use your s2 charger for ur s3 it will damage your battery (but i'm not completely sure about that )
I use an old HTC charger at home which seems fine. And I use the S3 charger at work. Never had a problem.
The s2 charger will not damage the phone it will output only what it is design to no matter what phone you use. That it can be consider normal and chargers do sometimes make some strange noices. My S2 charger did exactly the same noice you described. Also Samsung is not famous about its good quality chargers.

Hello all,
I had the nexus 4 before and moved to galaxy s3
So I have the new device for like a week now.
When I had the nexus 4 I used to charge it wirelessly with this charger:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Qi-Wireless...S_Cell_Phone_PDA_Chargers&hash=item5d44f9545c
when putting the s3 on top of the charger It doesn't charge.
Am I missing something?
Should I enable anything on the s3 in order it to charge?
Please advise,
Thanks.

No, i don't think GS3 supports it. I know nexus 4 does but GS3, i don't think it does.

Never seen them on General or Q&A in this forum .
A 10 second Google search shows I9300 wireless charging with a purchased receiver that is fitted on top of the battery .

Does not come with the receiver out of the box.
It goes between the battery and the battery cover, you can see the contacts next to the battery.

Does the charger acknowledge the presence of the phone? I once had an issue with the contacts of the charging coil not lining up with the phone's receptacles. I could hear a *beep* when placing my phone on the charger, confirming my charger was communicating with the charge coil, but the phone didn't start charging. Peeling the charge coil from the back cover and realigning it with the receptacles fixed the issue.
The S3 does not come with the "receiver" you have to purchase one, and as JerseyFF stated it goes between the battery and the back cover.
Search ebay, I'm sure you will find them.
I have been wireless charging my S3 for the last year...
