[Q] Where could I purchase the OEM headset? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I'm not from these forums (Nexus 4 user), but my bluetooth headset was stolen from me the other day and I want to purchase an OEM SIII headset to temporarily replace it. I have searched Amazon but I'm not sure if they are fakes or actual OEM. It would also be nice if I could find a pair of them in black like the US Cellular SIII's come with.
Thanks in advance.

For a white OEM set, try Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Samsung-Stereo-Headset-Microphone-Smartphones/dp/B008PXMWIW
For a black set, you're into Bbay, with all that entails: http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-Black-S...Headset-for-Galaxy-SIII-S-3-III-/221223150707

Yup. Mine came very loose with the phone so I'm going to try to get a replacement from HTC under warranty since T-mobile counts it as an "accessory" so it's not covered in the 2-year carrier warranty... if not, I'll just get a case and wait it out until the floodgates open.

I just got a message from HTC today saying that they STILL don't have any replacement battery covers. I wonder why they don't have the replacement parts for a phone that's been out for two months?

They've been sold out for a while now. I have to wonder if their just using it as a place holder. I sent them an email asking when they'd have them back in and I never received a response.

lol good deal... it prob will work fine unless there is some sort of security in the phone to only work with the samsung one, but I doubt it. So you prob will have no issues.

Importing to USA

So I'm planning on importing a Z2.
I'm on AT&T, are there any unforeseen consequences to doing this?
I just want to make sure I don't screw myself.
Thanks in advance.

I did it and it was painless. I had my concerns but someone on another forum recommended a reputable dealer "e-bagel-tw" on eBay. He accepted my "best offer" price and the shipping was free. Since it's an international phone, it has to have AT&Ts LTE enabled after you get it. Some people have been panicking thinking they're stuck with 3G, but it's perfectly compatible once you download and install the right files.

I can confirm that ebay seller "e-bagel-tw" is legit. I ordered my purple z2 from them and had it in my hands in 2 days from Taiwan to U.S. Phone has worked flawlessly for the 2 weeks I have had it.

Do you know a reliable source for these files? Just getting my ducks in a row.
I'm also on AT&T. I will say that I'd you don't already have the correctly enabled sim card, the system will give you a 3G only one of they enable the Z2 in your account. I had to go back and get them to fake the system into thinking I siding a different model so that it would provision LTE on my account.
Other than that, turn on LTE in the settings and use the system software to download the Internet settings and you're golden.
FYI, I dealt with the same seller and have the same comments about how great he is.

I wish I was paying more attention at the time. I took the phone to a local AT&T device support location in NYC when I realized I was not receiving data. The tech there couldn't figure it out at first either which is when mild panic started to set in and I backed off to let him fiddle with it. Eventually, he had a eureka moment when he stumbled upon a setting that required the download of a little file that allows the phone to connect to US LTE carriers. AT&T was one of the choices. Now in my phones settings: tools...wireless networks...more...internet settings...accept...and one of the three choices is ATT.
I'm going to order one as well. Probably will use the same seller.

Where can I purchase another AKG S8 ear phone?

Hi,
I really like the ear phones that come with the S8. Does anyone know where I can purchase another set?
You can find them from this website http://www.digitalsave.co.uk/offici...-kardon.html?gclid=CPm31oHFtdMCFWwo0wod6jsBIw
Thanks, anything US based?
I'm not using mine, $25 shipped?
be careful with samsung aftermarket/replacement headsets, the 2 i bought in the past(different models) had noticably worse sound quality than the pack-in versions despite having identical design.
although this was pre-AKG, so it might be better now.
I'll sell mine. Hah

Sony have one, might be a bit better quality.
