I am a TSR for a wireless carrier. We have customers calling in bc they see on your site that you can do a multi view after the recent update on their GS3′s? However, no one sees this setting and everything that you have listed in your article about multi view, is not on the phone????
Why can’t anyone, including Samsung themselves, see this setting your talking about?
I can only speak for myself. After updating my Galaxy s3 GT-I9300 to Android version 4.1.2 I have multiview on my phone. As to why not all s3 has got this feature after updating I can not be completely sure of. I THINK the cause of this is that not all carriers has included the premium suit in their 4.1.2 update. I have no reason to lie about this. without the trust of my visitors this website would not be what it is today. If you still don’t believe me you should read this informative article on Samsungs own pages : http://www.samsung.com/uk/news/localnews/2012/samsung-unveils-premium-suite-upgrade-for-the-galaxy-s-iii where it clearly states that the premium suit includes among other goodies the Multi Window. I quote : “Multi Window: Effortlessly utilise two different applications side-by-side simultaneously for an ultimate multitasking experience.” Hope this clears things up for you, and if my article has confused some of your customers I am truly sorry.
Yeah, I don’t get why some carriers GS3 has it but some do not. I got a sprint one here and it doesn’t do it all, but friends that have with other carriers can do it? Samsung could not explain why this is, the reps I spoke to there hardly knew anything about the feature itself. Sorry if I came off as accusing of lying, I just don’t understand how some can do it and others can’t when they are running same operating system. Great site, good info!!
Don’t worry about it I’m not offended. And I’m really pleased to hear that you like my site.
On a different note maybe I can help you out…. If there is some questions that you get asked a lot maybe I could make some tutorials that can help your customers.?
Why not send me a list of your most asked questions and I will see what I can do.
I recently purchased the Samsung GS3 for use w T-Mobile, thru my corporate discount. T-mobile’s already shut off my phone, trying to extort me for higher fees, telling me my “corporate discounts don’t kick in for 2-3 months down the road”, as well as trying to charge me full rates for 3 days useage “outside of my billing period”. I opted to purchase Simple Mobile sim card & now have the phone I wanted for less than what I’d been paying Cricket. I see no point in sending it back, since I did purchase the phone & they take a $75 restocking fee, if returned, & will no doubt also help themselves to “fees” they believe they’re entitled to. They failed to honor what I signed up & agreed to. The day after I activated my phone on the new network I received “Congratulations! T-Mobile has sent you a new software update for your device. Update will take approximately 10 minutes. You will not be able to use your phone during this time, including for 911 Emergency calls. To proceed w installation, select Start.” I’ve elected NOT to download & install this update, suspicious it may disable my phone. What advice do you have? Thank you.
I’m not familiar enough with t-mobile to know if they would do such a thing. I’m not even sure that they could if they would push a “special” update for your phone only..
