Hi guys,
My charging port has burnt out and charges intermittently. I have been looking for a replacement charger port cable and found to my surprise that the cables states specific US variant that are only compatible like S6 Edge G925A G925T G925V G925P. My problem is I have a Canadian S6 Edge (G925W8), does anyone know from either experience or expertise if the US cable would work on the G925W8? I would assume that for a small part like the the charger port cable would be same for all North American S6 edge models.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Hi im a noob im buying phone from expansys will they provide a converter adapter to charge phone can i use my att galaxy note charger on my phone it should be universal?how do ota updates work using international galaxy s3 on att?thanks for any help
It charges from micro USB, so any charger with the right plug should charge it. OTA updates should come from the international server as that's what the phone will be pointed at, rather than an ATT supplied phone configured to point at the ATT OTA servers.
All,
Just bought a adapter cable (Micro-USB to HDMI/MHL adapter) from Ebay that is compatible with the Samsung galaxy S3. It states you can watch pictures or video from the phone to your TV in HD.
However, it simply doesn't work, is there something I need to setup on my phone (like the old TV Out) ???
Thanks for any advice received.

You probably got yourself one of the many fakes that claim to be S3 compatible but really just the old type MHL cable.
No you shouldn't have to do anything. Seems to be a bit of confusion among retailers though as to which cable is for s3. Is it generic? Do you have a product no.?
Here is the link

If it's compatible with s2 it's not compatible with s3. Seller has either advertised incorrectly on purpose or by mistake. Best contact them to seek a refund then you will see which it is.

Thanks mate, I was thinking the same thing but great to get feedback, guess I need to return it.

Yup, I can also confirm. There was an article on Engadget about Samsung rearranging the pin arrangement of the port.

Wow, that's not fair. It is Samsung that is selling fake MHL accessories.
That vendor was selling a real MHL accessory, compatible with the > 100 real MHL devices already in market. Sammie gave no warning or explanation, and advertised that the SGS3 supported MHL, so many vendors had no way to know that their MHL cables wouldn't work with the SGS3.
Now those vendors have to give people money back and take a loss, when all they were doing is selling authentic MHL stuff.

Sorry but I am being fair because I've seen dozens of cables claiming to be S3 compatible and some that say they made specifically for the S3 alone, I mean I just got caught out by one because 11 days after getting dispatch confirmation I emailed the seller and they said they just found out it isn't compatible and offered a refund, so it looks like they knew it was fake from the beginning and didn't send it but still charged me and confirmed it was sent, and I think everyone can agree this item is definitely trying to claim to work on S3 http://www.amazon.co.uk/Adapter-GT-...7TNA/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1341253133&sr=8-2

MHL is a closed-documentation commercial proposed specification.
With drafts, changes are rather the norm than the exception. There were reports of the old pin-layout causing issues being the reason for the switching of pins.
But anyway, Samsung is one of the main developer in the consortium so they can change specifications.
Noone said MHL had to be backwards-compatible between revisions.
It's the seller's fault for ASSUMING that there would be no changes and marking the cable as compatible without even attempting to try.
Additionally they could've been notified of this change several months prior release of the S3 if they had bought access to the MHL specification which is restricted but still available and most surely includes iformations about the reason and details of the included changes.
Hi,
Does anyone know a good reliable site to get the MHL cable for the international version of the s3?
Edit: I found one on the amazon.com site. Would this be compatible with s3 international?

Hello, do we know if there will be a Quick Charger 3.0 in the boxing ? because the phone is compatible with Quick Charge 3.0 technology... And the G4 didn't have a Quick Charger after unboxing.
The LG G5, on the other hand, is QuickCharge 3.0-capable. 3.0

I think you don't understand, yes it is, like the LG G4 was capable Quick Charge 2.0, but did we have a Quick Charger in the box of the LG G4 ??? Noooo
Lg G5
LG has also confirmed that for a limited period of time, customers would be getting a free extra battery and a charging cradle along with the contents of the original purchase. Additionally, it has also confirmed that the handset will be made available for purchase via Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Sprint, U.S. Cellular, Best Buy and B&H. Lg G5 is one the most of awaiting Upcoming Android Smartphones in India
Since it's USB Type C connection and you will get a charging cable, does USB Type C have QC and Non-QC cables?
As for what's in the packaging that will be region dependant so hard to answer.
the charging port is loose, and I know all my USB C cables are good. Can I replace the bottom with ANY model bottom chin, or it needs to be an H820 like mine is? I want an OEM part, not a knockoff part.
can someone please answer so I know whether to spend 60 bucks on ebay? thanks!!
The chin is a "generic" part of the G5, so yes you can use chins from other G5 models.

I tried the international version chin, and it did not work; it said on the screen "plug in a compatible module." FYI
I have purchased several chins that claim to be compatible with all versions, but they do not work. Does anybody know a way to tell the difference between different chins?
On similar note is there a way arround the issue?

If you look closely there are yellow markings that said
"NA" American Versions
"GL" Global
"SKT" "KR" Korean
"NA"*front *AT&T_XX"from the back of the module: At&t, XX is some random numbers
Also : GET THE RIGHT VERSION IF YOU WANT YOUR CELLPHONE SIGNAL TO REMAIN GOOD. Probably different variants have different antenna frames in the module soo be careful
I have LG g5 ls992 model, I changed with lg g5 h830 motherboard, now I am finding a compatable model module for this. Anyone can help me to find? . No module is not compatable with this board now. Why?
