Bluetooth integration kit in car - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

Has anyone used the fiscon, parrot, or other install kits out there? I saw some on bestbuy.com but don't really know what I'm looking at. I am looking to install this on my factory radio in an 07 gti. Anyone have any recommendations?

Been using Parrot I'm work trucks for years, never had any problems on my gs3 our other phones. The Mic could be better, sometimes it's not the easiest for people to hear you, but the Parrot in my truck has a booster in the cradle and have noticed a better signal with it especially in remote areas.

I bought the Gogroove smartmini aux off amazon. Plugs into my auxiliary port. I use it in my mini cooper and it works great. Much cheaper than a parrot.

This is pretty awesome. Is the music quality pretty good? The only part that gets me, is that it will constantly need to be recharged

The sound quality is great. Charging isn't a big deal since it comes with the usb cable and you can charge it while you're using it. I mainly got it cause I kept getting a feedback on my s3 with my aux cable. Figured adding bluetooth would be cool and it is.

I cannot say what is best, only my experience with the bt that I purchased 2 months ago.
Blueant T1
It has great volume regardless of source and I am thoroughly happy with it. It is advertised as being rugged and this was confirmed when apparently my cat got a hold of it and played with it until it ended up at the other end of the house. Although it now has teeth marks in the plastic.
I have two H series Motorola Bluetooth ear pieces. They work great, with this phone. Don't work as good as new as they get used by four people.

Blown external speaker

Has anyone blown their external speaker and had to replace it? Mine is barked and sounds terrible. Haven't opened it up to know if its connection is soldered in or just a plug connection. I have my wife's old sgs4g I can use for parts if I need.

It's a ribbon cable. Super easy to replace. Here's the ifixit teardown:

Is the screen cracked but you can still see it n use it?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium
Correct. Its my wife's phone and she's getting an sg3 this week. I'm robbing the speaker from it, screen is cracked but fully functional, charging port is a bit loose so charging it might be an issue, but for someone with a bit of technical know- how I'm sure it could be repaired easily as well.

Wired hands free kit not working!?

Hi guys, I've had the phone for a while but never thought to try it with a hands free kit. So I tried to make a call with my beats solo headphones with the control talk cable. Mic was not responding but I could hear the person on the other side. The phones internal mic was also disabled. I then tried it with a HTC headset, same outcome. Not sure whether the Nexus is just not compatible with a wired hands free kit or its just my device.
Any advice?

Have you tried using the cable on another device or a friends device to test the mic? Did you seat the jack all the way down? There's no definitive click but the jack should be able to go all the way down. I have used the mic with a few wired headsets, Sol Republic Amps HD and my V-Moda M100's. I have used the mic on both without an issue.
Works with both of mine to

I've tried the headsets on a HTC One S and a One X and they seemed to work fine on them!
I also tried them on my father's Nexus too but didn't seem to work with his phone either.
So stupid! I don't know why my Nexus's are having this problem?

I just looked at your head phones online. Honestly I think it is where the connections are placed on the head phone jack.
All my wired head sets have three lines on the jack. The beats solo shows only two in the pictures.
This is the only logical thing I can come up with

Wireless Charge Mod!

Hey guys sorry if this is the wrong section just thought I would share the wireless charge mod. That I recently installed in my 2012 Altima! Works great through the Samsung Protective plus case.
Sent from my SCH-I545 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Nice one.
But I'm not sure that this counts as a mod as it seems like all you did was to cut a hole and stick in the wireless charger.
IMO, if you put the time and effort into cutting a hole, it counts as a mod. More of a car mod, but a mod nonetheless. But this is just my opinion.

Charging

As this SG3 ages, it's getting harder to charge. Im having to buy new cables as well as bend, twist, shimmy, shake & do other creative tricks to get it to charge. Does anyone have any tips, tricks or suggestions that may help?
Check Amazon for a qi wireless charger, and also get a qi wireless receiver for your s3. It's a flat card with contacts, you just lay it on top of your battery (making sure the contacts are lined up), put the cover back on and poof, you charge completely wirelessly
This is the charging pad I got (but there are less expensive ones): http://www.amazon.com/gp/other/aw/d...6lMu6WT3Yl7h3k9T/JvVKlsYqVKlSA/9k=&precache=1

I love the koolpad (the 1st link). I have two of them and I haven't charged any other way since. I believe it charged equally as fast as when it's plugged in directly
