    Calendar question

    That did the trick. Thank you -- I disabled "my calendar" and now it is defaulting to Google. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Android Central Forums

    Calendar question

    Is there a way to set the default calendar to Google Calendar? I like using S Voice, but I have to re-edit every entry so that it will sync with my calendar online. I'm wondering if there's an easier way to do this. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Android Central Forums

    verizon update

    I got it a few days ago. Not sure what it did, but my battery life (which was always good) seems to have gotten even better. That's the only change I've noticed. Sent from my GT-P7510 using Android Central Forums

    S3 and tablet???

    +1 (I had an Apple laptop a few years ago and absolutely hated it, so the choice was easy for me.) Sent from my SCH-I535 using Android Central Forums

    S3 Bluetooth Does NOT Auto Connect to Car

    It just keeps getting stranger. Today the bluetooth music player automatically pairs up, but the phone part of the GS 3 does not. Sometimes if I toggle bluetooth off and on that fixes things, but if I stop and reatart the car, it happens all over again. Has anyone else experienced this weird...

    Reminders not working

    Yes, it's happened to me too. That's why I've given up on S Voice. The other day I told it to set an alarm for 5 pm. After 5 I checked and it had set the alarm for the next day. It's a great idea but useless in its current form. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Android Central Forums

    Is this normal? I find it poor...

    Do you have any location services enabled? I ask because I usually don't use them, but I decided to give them a try recently and my battery life plummetted. I turned them off, and everything is good again. Sent from my GT-P7510 using Android Central Forums

    Please make my phone read books like the commercial!

    I think the commercial that you're talking about shows a runner using an audiobook. Those are prerecorded by actual humans and play more like music files. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Android Central Forums

    Calendar/Recurring meeting problem

    Same here. Recurring meetings entered from my tablet show up on the phone, but not the other way around. I have noticed that the phone appointments are branded with a blue bar on the left while tablet entries have a red bar. I'm not sure how to get those blue entries to sync and can't find...

    S3 Bluetooth Does NOT Auto Connect to Car

    I'm not sure if this makes a difference, but today I turned on location services for the first time to test out GPS, and this was the first time that I had to manually connect the bluetooth to the stereo. All other times (since first pairing it) it has connected automatically. Could that be...

    Calendar only using included ringtones - anyone using their own?

    I share your pain. This has been driving me nuts, too. The built-in notifications are way too quiet and too short to be useful, and I can't figure out how to cirvumvent them. If anybody has any ideas on how to do this, I would love to hear them. Sent from my GT-P7510 using Android Central Forums

    S3 Bluetooth Does NOT Auto Connect to Car

    I had a similar problem -- turned bluetooth on and it connected to the car, but it would not play music. When I also enabled "driving mode," it started working just fine. I'm not sure if there's an easier way, but this works for me. I'm on Verizon. Sent from my GT-P7510 using Android Central Forums
