Re: Samsung Galaxy S3
A friend at work has just got one of these (Vodaphone) and it doesn't seem to want to charge properly, has anybody else had this problem?
The Red light does come on and the white dots cycle indicate it is charging.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S3
When you say doesn't want to charge properly, what happens? Does the battery not last long? Could be the battery or it could be the connector on the phone. Get it replaced if he only just got it.

Re: Samsung Galaxy S3
The page you click to search for updates has a tick box for update over Wi-Fi only. Untick for updates over 3G.

Settings>about device>Software Update
Then Below the update button there should be a tick box option for updating over WiFi only. Untick it.
